Hello everyone,

I have a problem. I have to look at many plots. Usely I do it like that:

from pylab import*

X1 = genfromtxt("Myfile.dat", usecols =(0))
Y1 = genfromtxt("Myfile.dat", usecols =(1))
plot(X1,Y1, label ="My curve")

show()


But the problem is when I have many plots I have to copy paste and
change manually all the name of the variables X1, X2, X3...etc. It's
not really convenient.
I want to create a def with the name of my file as argument which do
something like that:

from pylab import*

def plotgraph(name):
    X_name = genfromtxt("name", usecols =(0))
    Y_name = genfromtxt("name", usecols =(1))
    plot(X_name,Y_name, label ="name")

plotgraph(MyFile)

show()

But it doesn't work. Do you know why? Do you have a smarter idea?

Thanks!

Fab
