Thanks for your replies, and reminding me of statistics(probably a quick crash course). The data I plan to use would be equally charted by a constant timestep in it's movement(type of movement graphed being dictated by the object being measured) So I thought that maybe the easiest way would be som

2010-10-03 Thread David Hutto
I'm creating an app that charts/graphs data. The mapping of the graphs is the 'easy' part with matplotlib, and wx. My question relates to the alignment of the data to be processed. Let's say I have three sets of 24 hr graphs with the same time steps: -the position of the sun -the temp. -local pow
