Next: (Re-)Configurable Data File Writing At UKIRT . ... We needed a layer of software that would dissociate a data column (element) from any particular file. ... The library functions sort the input files by type, locate the required elements in those files and provide access to them in a time-correlated fashion. ... This data access layer is built on the concept of a data ``element''. ... When the input data is opened, the first file of each type is searched for the elements to be accessed. ...

Python Reference Introduction These notes contain commands useful for analysing and plotting data using the Python programming language, together with the Numpy and Matplotlib libraries. ... So for example, the plot command (from matplotlib) would be executed by typing pylab.plot(.. ... Pulling out part of an array. ... To pick out only the chosen elements, and put them in a new array, use something like: new_array = my_array[index_array] Plotting We use Matplotlib (included in pylab) to plot. ...

Measuring the Cosmic Equation of State with Counts of Galaxies: Prospects for the DEEP Redshift Survey J.A. Newman et al. U.C. Berkeley The classical dN=dz test allows the determination of fundamental cosmological parameters from the evolution of the cosmic volume element. This test is applied by measuring the redshift distribu- tion of a tracer whose evolution in number density is known. ...

When using a large number of Virtual Hosts, Apache may run out of available file descriptors (sometimes called file handles if each Virtual Host specifies different log files. ... Unix operating systems limit the number of file descriptors that may be used by a process; the limit is typically 64, and may usually be increased up to a large hard-limit. ... If you system falls into 1 or 2 (above), then increase the file descriptor limit before starting Apache, using a script like #!/bin/sh . ...
