Even though the example from above does work, sadly, the following does not: python import xarray as xr import dask.array as da import numpy as np da = xr.DataArray(np.random.rand(3*4*5).reshape((3,4,5))).chunk(dict(dim_0=1)) idcs = da.argmax('dim_2') da[dict(dim_2=idcs)] results in ``` python

TypeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-4-3542cdd6d61c> in <module> ----> 1 da[dict(dim_2=idcs)]
