[yt-users] Counting number of cells

[Greg Meece]

Hi Devan,

The pf hierarchy contains data on the number of cells at each level. One
way to get the total number of cells in the simulation is below. It is
quite possible that there is a more elegant way to do this, but this worked
for me:

from yt.mods import *
from yt.utilities.definitions import MAXLEVEL

def cellCounter(filePath):
   pf = load(filePath)
   hir = pf.h

   sumCells = 0

   for i in range(MAXLEVEL):
      sumCells = sumCells + hir.level_stats['numcells'][i]

   return sumCells
