Hello, 

the docstring for compress in numpy give this

help(numpy.compress)

compress(condition, m, axis=None, out=None)
    compress(condition, x, axis=None) = those elements of x corresponding
    to those elements of condition that are "true".  condition must be the
    same size as the given dimension of x.


So (but perhaps I can misundertand the help due to my english) I don't 
undersand the following error, for me a and c array does have the same 
dimension and size. So someone can explain me the result please?

Thanks,

N.

In [86]: a = numpy.arange(9)

In [87]: a = numpy.arange(9).reshape(3,3)

In [88]: c = numpy.ones(9).reshape(3,3)

In [89]: numpy.compress(c,a)
