[Numpy-discussion] scan array to extract min-max values (with if condition)

[Massimo Di Stefano]

Thanks Pierre,

i tried it and all works fine and fast.

my apologize :-(

i used a wrong "if" statment to represent my needs

if mydata[i,0] < E or mydata[i,0] > W or mydata[i,1] < N or mydata[i,1] > S :

^^ totally wrong for my needs^^


this "if"  instead :

if W < mydata[i,0] < E and S < mydata[i,1] < N:

should reflect your example :

yselect = (data[:,1] <= N) & (data[:,1] >= S)
xselect = (data[:,0] <= E) & (data[:,0] >= W)
selected_data = data[xselect & yselect]


a question, how to code a masked array, 
as in the Brett's code, to reflect the new (right) if statment ?




i'm asking this to try to learn how to use masked array.
thanks a lot for your support!!!

Massimo.
