Trouble with reading 2d array

Hi there,

I have a 2d array that I’d like to contour. The plot isn’t turning out right and I think it’s because the array isn’t be read in correctly.

It’s a 25x41 array that is in a text file. I have tried using genfromtxt and the asciitable module to read the data in and neither gives the correct output.

Does anyone know of any command either specific for reading in 2d arrays or is able to handle 2d arrays?

Thanks,

Alexa

How about Numpy’s loadtxt()? Genfromtext is more of a specialty function.
