I am having difficulties reforming a transposed array:
e is int =array[3,1,2]
I transposed e to : int = array[2,1,3]
but now I want to reform e to [4,2]:
e = reform(e,4,2,/overwrite)
I know that this function won't work for reforming the array to [4,2] due to the difference in the number of elements.
Is there a way to reform the array e to [4,2]?
Thanks

The original array has 6 elements. The desired array has 8 elements. There's no way to use REFORM or REBIN to go to a different number of elements like this. You would be better off computing the elements of your desired array explicitly, one by one.
