Re: get index value

We don't have a function like "ind" for nD arrays, but we do have a "where" function. This function doesn't behave like the one in IDL, however, which allows you use a 1D list of indexes that represent indexes into an nD array.

See:

Is it possible to create a function to do this for a multi-dimensional array? I understand there's a workaround with the ndtooned and ind_resolve functions, but I am wondering if there's a faster way to do it, or if a future release of ncl will have a function to do it (for example, idl has the WHERE function).
