Hi Rich,
bit confused what your asking.
are you looking for the pylab API savefig
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/matplotlib.pyplot.html#-savefig
or you asking how to convert your variable+.png into a filename?
is your variable a number?, string?
for count in range(3):
count = count +1
fname = 'MyPlot_%d.png' %count
print fname
mystr = 'MyFirstPlot'
fname = '%s.png' % mystr
print fname
results in
>python -u "test.py"
MyPlot_1.png
MyPlot_2.png
MyPlot_3.png
MyFirstPlot.png
>Exit code: 0
pylab.savefig('%s.png'% curVar)
or
pylab.savefig('%d.png'% curVar)
Does anything here help?
