[yt-users] Query

[Hannes Mohr]

Hey there,

I don't think it is directly in there, but I am not too sure about this.
You could just use matplotlib.
Basically you could do something like this:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1,2,3,4],  [1,4,9,16])
plt.show()

Pylab would be possible as well, maybe even better, as it also gives you 
the math namespace.
Hope that helps.

All the best
Hannes


PS: For actually opening a file you might want to try:

plt.plotfile(/fname/,/cols=(0/,/)/,/plotfuncs=None/,/comments='#'/,/skiprows=0/,/checkrows=5/,/delimiter='/,/'/,/names=None/,/subplots=True/,/newfig=True/,/**kwargs/)

plt.plotfile(fname, (0,1,2), subplots=False)


Which would plot the second and third column of the file 'fname' against 
the first one.
