Description

why doesn't this work?

P = rand(3,4,100)
@cast H[k][i,j] := P[i,j,k] (i in 1:3, j in 1:3, k in 1:100)

It fails with

DimensionMismatch("range of index j must agree")

Probably i am missing something basic.
Thanks.

Research direction

Start with the reported @cast expression using P = rand(3,4,100), and inspect how index ranges are checked against axes(A,d). Determine whether the shorter j range should be accepted or rejected, then document the expected behavior or add a regression test for this example.
