How do I filter a NumPy array by value?

Use boolean masking, such as arr[arr > threshold], to create a sub-array containing only elements that meet the specific condition.

Can indexing cause memory leaks in Python?

Yes, a small view of a massive array keeps the entire original array in memory; it is safer to copy the slice and delete the large array to free resources.

When should I use np.ix_?

Use np.ix_ when you need to select a cross-product or 'sub-grid' of elements across multiple dimensions using separate index lists for each axis.

What is the difference between a view and a copy in NumPy?

A view shares memory with the original array (created via basic slicing), while a copy creates a new independent object (created via fancy indexing).
