[Numpy-discussion] Trim a numpy array in numpy.

[Hongchun Jin]

*Thanks Derek for  the quick reply. But **I am sorry, I did not make it
clear in my last email.  Assume I have an array like *
*

['CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-01T00-37-48ZD.hdf'

 'CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-01T00-37-48ZD.hdf'

 'CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-01T00-37-48ZD.hdf' ...,

 'CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-31T23-56-35ZD.hdf'

 'CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-31T23-56-35ZD.hdf'

 'CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Prov-V3-01.2008-01-31T23-56-35ZD.hdf']

I need to get the sub-string for date and time, for example,
**

'2008-01-31T23-56-35ZD' in the middle of each element. In more general
cases, the sub-string could be any part of the string in such an array.  I
hope to assign the start and stop of the sub-string when I am subsetting it.

*Best,

Hongchun
