Hi all,

The last few days I've been working on a script to manipulate some scientific 
data. One thing I would like to be able to do is find relative maxima in a data 
set. 
I'm using numpy in python3 (which I think I can't do without because of utf16 
encoding of my data source) and a series of np.arrays. When looking around the 
web and some forums I came across the scipy function argrelextrema, which 
seemed to do just what I wanted. The problem is that I can't get the function 
to work, probably because scipy in python3 does not yet support the 
argrelextrema function. I can however, not find a reference to this really 
being the problem, and was wondering if someone here could maybe help me out.
The code I used is shown below. The function to return the maximum values is 
called by a different script. Then, when running, it returns an error like the 
one below the code. 

Script:
import numpy as np
import scipy as sp

def max_in_array_range(MaxArray, Column, LowBound):
        '''
        Finding the max value an array with a predefined in a certain column 
and from a threshold index.
        The complete array is loaded through Max Array. The column is first 
selected. 
        The, the LowBound is called (the data is only interesting from a 
certain point onward.
        '''
        TempArray = MaxArray[:, Column] # Creation of Temporary Array to ensure 
1D Array and specification of the LowBound in the next line.
        return sp.argrelextrema(TempArray[LowBound:], np.greater)


Error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "MyScript.py", line 15, in <module>
    Varrr = FD.max_in_array_range(CalcAndDiffArray, 5 ,MyBound)

    return sp.argrelmax(TempArray[LowBound:], np.greater)
