I'm getting confused about meaning of shape parameter of arrays used in a pcolor plot... xarray= [ 0. 1.25 2.5 3.75 5. 0. 1.25 2.5 3.75 5. 0. 1.25 2 .5 3.75 5. 0. 1.25 2.5 3.75 5. ] yarray= [500 500 500 500 500 600 600 600 600 600 700 700 700 700 700 800 800 800 80 0 800] zarray= [...etc.] This will create a proper pcolor plot with 4 rows and 5 columns if I set all 3 array 'shapes' to be (4, 5). What is confusing me is that if I want to SWAP xarray and yarray in order to create a plot with 5 rows and 4 columns then I MUST STILL SET 'shapes' TO BE (4,5). 'shapes' OF ARRAYS DOESN'T EQUAL DIMENSIONS OF PLOT!?!? *This* is what is confusing me. I'm not sure what array 'shape' means if it doesn't mean (# plot rows, # plot columns). Any help greatly appreciated.
