"This section covers the use of Boolean masks to examine and manipulate values within NumPy arrays.\n",
"Masking comes up when you want to extract, modify, count, or otherwise manipulate values in an array based on some criterion: for example, you might wish to count all values greater than a certain value, or perhaps remove all outliers that are above some threshold.\n",
