A more idiomatic version would be this: F = numpy.empty((shotcount,), dtype=float) attackwarningred, you might want to ask your numpy questions on the numpy-discussion mailing list: http://www.scipy.org/Mailing_Lists -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
