Hi,

I am trying to find abundance of C contained within a sphere through the Profile1D function in yt. I tried something like this:

ds=yt.load(filename)

sp = ds.sphere("max", (10.0, 'kpc'))

profile = yt.Profile1D(sp, "x", 32, rmin, rmax, False, weight_field=None)

profile.add_fields(["cell_mass"])

profile.add_fields(["c12 "])

profile.add_fields(["x"])

print profile ["cell_mass"].sum()/Msun

print profile ["c12 "]*["cell_mass"].sum()/Msun

and got the following error:

File "profile_1D.py", line 74, in <module>

print profile ((["c12 "]*["cell_mass"]).sum())/Msun

TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'list'

is there any way I can calculate the C12 abundance here?

Best
