Using np.loadtxt I can easily read my file that has columns of time, mode, 3
float64 for position and 3 for velocity like this.
dt = dtype([('time', '|S12'),
('mode','|S3'),('rx','f8'),('ry','f8'),('rz','f8'),('vx','f8'),('vy','f8'),('vz','f8')])
data = np.loadtxt('file', dtype=dt)
I can then put the two pairs of 3 components into np.arrays and start
performing the vector operations I need.
How can I read them directly into np.arrays?
dt = dtype([('time', '|S12'), ('mode','|S3'),np.array('r'), np.array('v')])
I've seen examples for nested data that create a tuple but not an array. Any
tips appreciated.
