Re: [Matplotlib-users] Selectable contour(f) divisions

2010-02-12 Thread Matthias Michler
Hi Bruce,

why don't you use contour as in the following ;-) 

contour(X,Y,Z,V)
# - draw contour lines at the values specified in sequence *V*

like in

x, y = np.meshgrid(np.linspace(0, 1, 100), np.linspace(0, 1, 50))
z = x**4 - x**2 + np.sin(y)
contour(x, y, z, [-0.2, 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8])

Kind regards,
Matthias

 N is a number of automatically chosen levels.

 I would like to contour based on data divisions.

 For instance, perhaps I'd like to use a contour or color-fill
 (contourf) every 2 units.  I'm not seeing how to accomplish this.  Any
 points in the right direction would be appreciated.

 Thanks!

 Bruce

Thanks for this.  I didn't realize that N could be an array and
contour would know that these are the levels desired.

I found similar in an example, but not in the contour documentation.

Thanks so much!

Just a remark: I use the help of IPython to investigate the doc-strings of 
matplotlib-functions. The input contour? tells me 
::

  contour(Z,V)
  contour(X,Y,Z,V)

draw contour lines at the values specified in sequence *V*

Kind regards,
Matthias

 Thanks so much!
