Where can I find documentation for the

data[:,9]

in the code above.

Been looking and found many examples but would like to know the definition.

When asking questions like this, it helps *a lot* to provide a complete example, not just a snippet. If I weren't already intimately familiar with the library you are using, I would have no idea how to help you.

However, I do know that input object is a numpy array, and the syntax you are asking about is multidimensional slicing.

http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/arrays.indexing.html

I need to skip the first column and then read 9

data[:, 1:10]

I would also like to print the data in ihe variable "input"

print input
