Getting a strange result trying to divide two 3d arrays. I am getting a matrix of NaNs regardless of how I divide and I can't determine why.
#opened a NetCDF file using python-netcdf4 var1 = nc_file.variables['var1'] ###shape = [31,181,360] with a values ranging from 0 - 243 and NO NaNs in the array, dtype float32 var2 = nc_file.variables['var2'] ###shape = [31,181,360] with a values ranging from 0 - 4 (mostly zeros) and NO NaNs in the array, dtype float32 np.seterr(all='ignore') #in case problem has something do to with dividing by zero var1/var2 ###gives array of NaNs with shape of 31,181,360 #doing the division one slice at a time doesn't help... for x in range(1,var1.shape[0]): var[x,:,:] = var1[x,:,:]/var2[x,:,:] ###gives array of NaNs with shape of 31,181,360 var = np.divide(var1,var2) ###gives array of NaNs with shape of 31,181,360 print "<p>where max: " + np.where(var1 == np.max(var1)) #prints (array([28]), array([79]), array([182])) print var1[28,79,182] #print 545 print var2[28,79,182] ##prints 6 #so there are values in this location that should not result in an NaN. Instead I get an entire array of NaNs What am I missing? Bruce --------------------------------------- Bruce W.
