Thread: [matplotlib-devel] array bug

lines 1123 - 1126 in axes.py should be changed at c = C[i,j] to the
following. As it now stands a floating point number from a numeric array
will generally register as type array rather than type float and be
rejected as not iterable when later tested.
 for i in range(Nx-1):
 for j in range(Ny-1):
 c = C[i][j]

Sorry to be dense, but even after your detailed explanation I don't
really understand why you are getting an error. 
 * Are you passing a numerix array of floats for C? If so C[i,j]
 should return the float we want
 * What do you mean will be "rejected as not iterable when later
 tested"? I don't see any tests for iterable in poclor.
 * What is it you are doing differently that causes pcolor to fail
 for you but not for the other uses, eg in pcolor_demo.py?
If you could give me a little more information to clear up these
questions that would be helpful. Also, if you could post the
traceback you are getting that might help.
Thanks!
