For every day you could build a timestamp and frequency pair, hell, you don't even need to use the time module if you're capturing data manually. If you build your dataset as "(timestamp, frequency)" and if frequency is nothing then use "None" when you extract data to plot you could use a simple list comprehension to retrieve days that actually had items "[(timestamp,frequency) for timestamp,frequency in data_structure where frequency != None]". Now you have your own list that is composed just of data pairs where there is a frequency. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
