Hi Brad, I am not getting the attribute reshape for the array, are you having a different version of numpy than mine?
I have In [55]: np.__version__ Out[55]: '1.7.0' and detail of the shape
details of variable
In [57]: ssh?? Type: NetCDFVariable String Form:
Namespace: Interactive Length: 75 Docstring: NetCDF Variable In [58]: ssh.shape Out[58]: (75, 140, 180)
ssh?? Type: NetCDFVariable String Form:
Namespace: Interactive Length: 75 Docstring: NetCDF Variable In [66]: ssh.shape Out[66]: (75, 140, 180)
In [67]: ssh.reshape(75,140*180) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) /home/sjo/RAMA_20120807/adcp/<ipython-input-67-1a21dae1d18d> in <module>() ----> 1 ssh.reshape(75,140*180)
AttributeError: reshape
Ah, you have a NetCDF variable, which in many ways purposefully looks like a NumPy array, but isn't. Just keep in mind that a NetCDF variable is merely a way to have the data available without actually reading it in until you need it. If you do: ssh_data = ssh[:] Then the NetCDF variable will read all the data in the file and return it as a numpy array that can be manipulated as you wish. I hope that helps! Ben Root
