I have a user that is trying to write a python script that reads in a dataset with a large number of files (say hundreds to thousands of files). The dataset is Exodus. This user wants to read in a large number of these datasets (dozens to hundreds), with each dataset comprised of a different number of individual files than the other datasets. Thus, he doesn't want to read in files like this (example, only 8 files):
z_pinch1exo8 = ExodusIIReader(FileName=['z_pinch1.exo.8.0', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.1', z_pinch1.exo.8.2', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.3', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.4', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.5', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.6', 'z_pinch1.exo.8.7']) But would rather like this: z_pinch1exo8 = ExodusIIReader(FileName=['z_pinch1.exo.8.*']) or z_pinch1exo8 = ExodusIIReader(FileName=['z_pinch1.exo."totalFileCount".*']) Is this possible in Python? What is the format? If the user wants to window into his data, say take the last 4 files, is this possible? Thanks, Alan
