[Matplotlib-users] griddata is not working after update to Python 2.7

[Umut Y. <yi...@st...>]

Dear All,

I used to use griddata in order to make my contourmaps. However, after I updated
my Python from 2.6 to 2.7 griddata is not working anymore.

I tried some workarounds but no success.

The countourmap that I produced before is here.

After the Python 2.7 update, it turns to the following.

Here is the datafile.

And the associated python script (which is also below).

The code that I was using before is here. I had to comment out #import griddata
line because this is the only way that it continues. Is this a bug in griddata,
or if there are new workarounds, I would be glad to know a new method to produce
my contourplots again.

Thanks a lot
