Re: [Matplotlib-users] Extended load function
Oups, now i have attached the file -- Forwarded message -- From: Troels Kofoed Jacobsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, Mar 3, 2008 at 3:51 PM Subject: Extended load function To: matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net Hi everybody I have modified the load function (in matplotlib.mlab) to be able to load strings e.g for use as xticks. Anyone willing to test and comment, 'cause when i'm done i'll send it as a patch. The usage is as follows: from reload import load s,A,B=reload('data.dat',usecols=(1,2),unpack=True,string=0) here the data file is like: # Molecule Energy1 Energy2 Fe -831-832 Pt -923-932 It can also be used without unpack, but only one array of strings can be extracted. -- Med Venlig Hilsen / Best regards Troels Kofoed Jacobsen -- Med Venlig Hilsen Troels Kofoed Jacobsen reload.py Description: application/python - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

If you want to enhance load you should concentrate your efforts there -- numpy.io.loadtxt is just a copy plus enhancement of matplotlib.mlab.load.
