Thanks for the issue @milthorpe! This involves broadcasting the `pdarray` and `ArrayView` into compatible shapes. This is definitely something we want to be able to do, but it's a bit...

This might be a duplicate of https://github.com/Bears-R-Us/arkouda/issues/2161. This issue indicates it is only a problem with segarrays not written by arkouda which might explain why it wasn't caught by any...

I'm struggling to reproduce this. I threw together the following script. It's not pretty but I think it does an okay job. I tried my best to strike a balance...

The only issue I can reproduce is the one brought up in #2161, where we incorrectly handle all empty. But even then it seems to just skip that column ```python...

I did a tiny bit of digging and this seems intentional... the question is why did we make this decision? https://github.com/Bears-R-Us/arkouda/blob/a84a35f5a734e85d36dd68f27b33c6c983d5dc02/arkouda/groupbyclass.py#L750-L752 https://github.com/Bears-R-Us/arkouda/blob/a84a35f5a734e85d36dd68f27b33c6c983d5dc02/src/ReductionMsg.chpl#L995-L1007 I don't really know why we always make...

It seems it got changed back in PR https://github.com/Bears-R-Us/arkouda/pull/59, but there's no note of it in the description

It seems that `choice` might be a bit more difficult since it can take a probability array, and I don't see an option for that in the chpl methods except...

Both `choice` and `shuffle` ran into difficulties. So I'm going to put up a PR for `permutation` and work the others in their own issues [chpl's inplace array `shuffle`](https://chapel-lang.org/docs/modules/standard/Random.html#Random.randomStream.shuffle) works...

Okay the rename is seems fine by me!

I'd like to discuss this further with u. My initial thought is there's not a good way to do this without `max_bits` set since there's not a good identity element....
