Actually the plot command is perfectly happy converting lists or lists of lists etc. to arrays (by calling np.array internally) so you don't need to convert any of your inputs. By the way: np.arange(1, N/2+2) would be the usual way to create a numpy array that is a range. The error here comes because (after both arguments are converted to arrays) they have incompatible sizes. In other words: len(range(1,N/2+2)) != len(Splot[alpha][iii,val]/utot[iii,val]) I'm not sure what the solution is as the code is too complex for me to spend time trying to guess what it's trying to do. -- Oscar -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
