Numpy slice of arbitrary dimensions

Question

I would like to slice a numpy array to obtain the i-th index in the last dimension. For a 3D array, this would be:

slice = myarray[:,:,i]

B

Answer 1

There is ... or Ellipsis, which does exactly this:

slice = myarray[..., i]

Ellipsis is the python object, if you should want to use it outside the square bracket notation.
