Hi I have a machine with a non-UTF8 local. I can't figure out how to make numpy.genfromtxt work
I pipe some ascii data into the following script but get this bytes to str hell. Many thanks for a hint, Helmut. #!/usr/bin/python3 import numpy as np import io import sys inpstream = io.open(sys.stdin.fileno(), "r", encoding='latin1') data = np.genfromtxt(inpstream) ''' Traceback (most recent call last): File "SimpleMatInp.py", line 8, in <module> data = np.genfromtxt(inpstream) File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/site-packages/numpy/lib/npyio.py", line 1274, in genfromtxt first_values = split_line(first_line) File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/site-packages/numpy/lib/_iotools.py", line 206, in _delimited_splitter line = line.split(self.comments)[0].strip(asbytes(" \r\n")) TypeError: Can't convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly ''' print(data) print(data.dtype) print(data.shape) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
