Hello, I am new to the world of Python and numpy but am very excited by what I have seen so far.
I have been playing around with some rainfall data. The data is daily rainfall for a period, say 30 years in the form: Year Month JulianDay Rain (mm) 1970 1 1 0.0 1970 1 2 0.5 ................................. 2008 3 65 2.5 I have successfully imported the data into lists and then created a single array from the lists. I can get the rainfall total over the entire period using: raindata = numpy.array([yr,mth,jd,rain_mm],dtype=float) print data[3,:].sum(axis=0) or raindata= numpy.rec.fromarrays ([yr,mth,jd,rain_mm],names='year,month,julian,rain_mm') print raindata.rain_mm.sum(axis=0) But what i would like to do is get an average rainfall for each month and also the ability to get rainfall totals for any month and Year I thought it would be straight forward but have not gotten my head around it yet. Thanks for your help and thakns to the people eho have develoepd and maintain numpy & python _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
