Hi Michael, thanks for responding. I actually don't use a method to get
each bin... the bin outputs are nested in the loop. Here's my code:
data_file = open('G:\file.txt')
DUMMY = 9999
bintm = DUMMY
for line in data_file:
fields = line.strip().split()
if not line: continue
ilist = [int(time), int(a)]
# print "ilist:", ilist
klock, a = ilist
newbintm = ((klock + 4) // 5 * 5 ) % 2400
print "bintm = %d, newbintm = %d, a = %d" % (bintm, newbintm, a)
# the above is the raw data and now the bin loop
if bintm == 9999:
bintm = newbintm
binlo = a
elif bintm == newbintm:
binlo = min(binl, t)
else:
print " ==>> %04d %2d" % (bintm, binl) ## this is the bin
bintm = newbintm
binl = a
#-------------------
the input file is in my first post in this thread, the output looks
like:
bintm = 9999, newbintm = 1235, a = 23
bintm = 1235, newbintm = 1235, a = 25
bintm = 1235, newbintm = 1235, a = 26
bintm = 1235, newbintm = 1240, a = 22
==>> 1235 23
bintm = 1240, newbintm = 1240, a = 31
bintm = 1240, newbintm = 1240, a = 35
#---------------------
I'm not sure where I could create the new list without it getting
overwritten in the bin loop. Confused as to how to add the append
method in a for loop without a defined method for the current bin.
Anyway, I'll keep at it, but I'm not sure how to execute it. Thank you
very much for your suggestion.
Marcus
