Hi,
 I am translating a Matlab code to python and get the following error when
the codes reaches the plotting section 
Warning (from warnings module):
 File "C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\PHYSICS\Wave-eqn.py", line 40
 w = (D*v)
RuntimeWarning: overflow encountered in multiply
Traceback (most recent call last):

906, in <listcomp>
 tylines = [tY[i] for i in cii]
IndexError: index out of bounds
My code 
import numpy as np
from numpy import *
from math import pi
from scipy.linalg import toeplitz
from scipy.special import cotdg
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import axes3d
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
N = 512
h = 2*np.pi/N
x = h*(np.arange(N) + 1)
t = 0
dt = h / 4
a = .1
tmax = 15; 
tplot = .15;
nplots = int(round((tmax/tplot)));
plotgap = int(around(tplot/dt));
c = a + np.sin(x - 1)**2
v = np.exp(-100 * (x - 1)**2)
vold = np.exp(-100 * (x - a*dt - 1)**2)
#i = np.arange(1, N)
#column = np.hstack([0, .5 * (-1**i) * cotdg(i * h/2)])
#D = toeplitz(column, -column) 
column = ((0.5*(-1)**arange(1,N+1))*cotdg(arange(1,N+1))*(h/2));
D = toeplitz(column,-column);print(D.shape);
 
k = np.zeros(((nplots,N))); print(v.shape);print(k.shape);
data = np.concatenate((v.reshape((512,1)).transpose(), k))#data =
np.concatenate((v, k),axis = 1);
#data = np.vstack([v,k]);
tdata = t;
for i in range(1,nplots+1):
 for n in range(1,plotgap+1):
 t = t+dt
 w = (D*v)
 vnew = vold-2*dt*c*w
 vold = v
 v = vnew
 data[i,:] = v[0,:]
 tdata = vstack([tdata, t]) 
 
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection='3d')
#X, Y, Z = axes3d.get_test_data(0.05)
ax.plot_wireframe(x,tdata,data, rstride=10, cstride=10)
plt.show()
I looked at the error line and it seems as if the y axes is where the
problem is, but I am not seeing why and would appreciate any help. Thank
you!

Thank you both of you.
The problem is that I did not have tk-dev packages before I compiled
Python3.2.3. After installing tk-dev and recompiled Python3.2.3 and
matplotlib 1.2.x with a `setup.cfg` file and enable `backend = TkAgg`, I
can show the picture windows.
So exciting!
Best regards,
Simon
