    Hi List

    I cannot figure out how to satisfy this issue to resolve the
    ValueError:
    x and y must have same first dimension.


    This is the relevant code:
    [code]

    for i in range( 0, time + 1 ):

       outflow = constant * quantity

       quantityChange = inflow - outflow

       changeList.append( quantityChange )

       print "%2d %9.2f %11.3f %11.3f %10.3f" % ( i, inflow, quantity,
    outflow, quantityChange )

       quantity += quantityChange



    # Plot on graph

    x = np.arange( time )
    y = np.arange( quantityChange )

    plt.plot( x, y, label="rate of change" )
    plt.ylabel( "Quantity" )
    plt.xlabel( "Time" )
    plt.show()


    [/code]

    I have picked up that neither a 'list' or an 'int' are iterable
    objects,
    but I am stymied by how I can successfully get the x and y axes to
    portray the data outputs.

    Also, what does that error message mean?  That  the starting point
    must
    be 0 or of the same object type?  I haven't found a clear answer
    in the
    tutorial pages yet, but I will perservere.

    TIA

    AG



x and y must be in the same length otherwise you hit that error message.

try simply to see the failure:

plt.plot([1,2], [1,2,3])

Use len(x) or x.shape to see how many elements in the array and adjust your code to make x and y has the same length before plotting.

That was very helpful, thank you Gökhan. Having played around with it a bit, I think I've got it fixed.

Thanks.
