# 450: DS-1000 Task

## Prompt
Problem:
Say I have a 3 dimensional numpy array:
np.random.seed(1145)
A = np.random.random((5,5,5))
and I have two lists of indices corresponding to the 2nd and 3rd dimensions:
second = [1,2]
third = [3,4]
and I want to select the elements in the numpy array corresponding to
A[:][second][third]
so the shape of the sliced array would be (5,2,2) and
A[:][second][third].flatten()
would be equivalent to to:
In [226]:
for i in range(5):
    for j in second:
        for k in third:
            print A[i][j][k]
0.556091074129
0.622016249651

0.04760811817

0.981601369658
Is there a way to slice a numpy array in this way? So far when I try A[:][second][third] I get IndexError: index 3 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 2 because the [:] for the first dimension seems to be ignored.
A:
<code>
import numpy as np
a = np.random.rand(5, 5, 5)
second = [1, 2]
third = [3, 4]
</code>
result = ... # put solution in this variable
BEGIN SOLUTION
<code>

## What to do
- Edit `solution/solution.py` so the code passes the DS-1000 tests.
- Do not access the internet or install new packages; required libraries are preinstalled in the Docker image.
- Run tests locally via `bash tests/test.sh`.

## Notes
- Keep the variable names/signatures implied by the prompt/code_context.
- The evaluator uses the original DS-1000 `code_context` (`test_execution` / `test_string`).
