Hi all, I have been using matplotlib for about 5 hours :-/ so please forgive me if the question has been asked several times (and i have been trying to find it in the forum)
But i downloaded phyton(xy) and from there i found the poormans_countour and some pcolor scripts. I think this is what i need but how do i load a textfile (.csv or -txt with columns etc) that contains UV-coordinates (ordinary xy) with a assigned value and put them into the Z variables in the .py scripts ?? i.e from numpy import * from pylab import load from pylab import save read_data = load("myfile.txt") // here how to assign Z to read_data cmap = cm.get_cmap('jet', 35) # 35 discrete colors im = imshow(Z, cmap=cmap, interpolation='bilinear') axis('off') colorbar() show() The same goes for the pcolor plot, how can i replace the func3 so it contais an array of my values from the loaded file ? def func3(x,y): return (1- x/2 + x**5 + y**3)*exp(-x**2-y**2) # make these smaller to increase the resolution dx, dy = 0.05, 0.05 x = arange(-3.0, 3.0, dx) y = arange(-3.0, 3.0, dy) X,Y = meshgrid(x, y) Z = func3(X, Y) ax = subplot(111) im = imshow(Z, cmap=cm.jet) #im.set_interpolation('nearest') #im.set_interpolation('bicubic') im.set_interpolation('bilinear') Thanks in advance :handshake: /Linda -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Colormap-using-%28UV%29coordinates-from-file-tp23572972p23572972.html Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
