I am fairly new to programing and have a question regarding matplotlib. I wrote a python script that reads in data from the outfile of another program then prints out the data from one column.
f = open( 'myfile.txt','r') for line in f: if line != ' ': line = line.strip() # Strips end of line character columns = line.split() # Splits into coloumn mass = columns[8] # Column which contains mass values print(mass) What I now need to do is have matplotlib take the values printed in 'mass' and plot number versus mean mass. I have read the documents on the matplotlib website, but they don't really address how to get data from a script(or I just did not see it) If anyone can point me to some documentation that explains how I do this it would be really appreciated.
