I've gotten my script to work by setting the missing value another way. I'm
showing lines commented out as well.
#data.missing_value=-9.99
#try:
# mval=data.missing_value
# print " using specified missing value =",mval
#except:
mval=-9.99
# print " faking missing value=",mval
# make a masked array: using missing value(s) in mval
maskdat=ma.masked_values(slice,mval)
If I understand correctly, in previous versions the value of -9.99 was passed
through the data.missing_value into mval. A mistake in coding that did not
result in an error. I will implement the change. Tomorrow I'll check that this
solution is backward compatible.
