This is not quite as clean as i would like, but this will work:

>>> a = array([[1, 2, 3],
...        [4, 5, 6],
...        [7, 8, 9]])
>>> m,n = a.shape
>>> b[:m-1,:n-1] =  a[1:,1:]
>>> b
array([[5, 6, 0],
       [8, 9, 0],
       [0, 0, 0]])
>>>

if b does not have to be the same shape as a, then it is really easy:

>>> b =  a[1:,1:]
