To add a bit more detail -- unless you are explicitly specifying single precision floats (dtype=float32), then both numpy and excel are using doubles -- so that's not the source of the differences. Even if you are using single precision in numpy, It's pretty rare for that to make a significant difference. Something else is going on. I suspect a different algorithm, you can tell timeseries.convert how you want it to interpolate -- who knows what excel is doing. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
