The input "contour?" tells me :: contour(Z,V) contour(X,Y,Z,V) draw contour lines at the values specified in sequence *V* Kind regards, Matthias > Thanks so much! > > Bruce > On Fri, Feb 12, 2010 at 7:29 AM, Matthias Michler > > <matthiasmich...@gmx.net> wrote: > > Hi Bruce, > > > > why don't you use contour as in the following ;-) > > > > contour(X,Y,Z,V) > > # -> draw contour lines at the values specified in sequence *V* > > > > like in > > > > x, y = np.meshgrid(np.linspace(0, 1, 100), np.linspace(0, 1, 50)) > > z = x**4 - x**2 + np.sin(y) > > contour(x, y, z, [-0.2, 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8]) > > > > Kind regards, > > Matthias > > > > On Thursday 11 February 2010 21:58:15 Bruce Ford wrote: > >> In using the contour as in: > >> > >> contour(X,Y,Z,N) > >> > >> N is a number of automatically chosen levels. > >> > >> I would like to contour based on data divisions. > >> > >> For instance, perhaps I'd like to use a contour or color-fill > >> (contourf) every 2 units.
