[SciPy-User] How to handle a scipy.io.loadmat - related bug: parts of the data inaccessible after loadmat

[Propadovic Nenad]

Hello Gregor,

Anyhow, the field names are accessible by
>
> y = scipy.io.loadmat("x.mat")
> y['CanData'][0, 0]['msg'].dtype.names
>
> ('RPDO2',)
>

Oh. I missed both the above and the below. :(

or
>
> y = scipy.io.loadmat("x.mat", squeeze_me=True)
> y['CanData']['msg'].item().dtype.names
>

These are the access methods I was looking for all the time. I guess before
I ask why .item() has to be used I guess I'll go rtfm some more :(
