Re: [Numpy-discussion] Matlab's griddata3 for numpy?

[Numpy-discussion] Matlab's griddata3 for numpy?

2009-12-23 Thread reckoner
Hi, I realize that there is a griddata for numpy via matplotlib, but is there a griddata3 (same has griddata, but for higher dimensions). Any help appreciated. ___ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailma
