[Numpy-discussion] how to name "contagious" keyword in np.ma.convolve

[Allan Haldane]

Hi all,

Eric Wieser has a PR which defines new functions np.ma.correlate and
np.ma.convolve:

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/7922

We're deciding how to name the keyword arg which determines whether
masked elements are "propagated" in the convolution sums. Currently we
are leaning towards calling it "contagious", with default of True:

        def convolve(a, v, mode='full', contagious=True):

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Allan
