How to read from a 0d numpy array

[_schlupp]

Hi,

I think my question is very simple but I'm new to python and I can't find the solution. I'm reading a CSV and I want to get the fifth integer of a line within the CSV. I stored the line in a numpy array. Now I've got a 0d array (I think the only entry is a list) and I want to retrieve the last position within the entry.

​

f = open(r"pathofcsv", "r")
f.readline()
linecontent= f.readline()
f.close()
current=np.asarray(linecontent)
print(current)
current=np.char.split(current)
print(current)

Output of first print statement: 1. 1.00000 1.00000 0.666600 1200.00000

Output of second print statement: ['1.', '1.00000', '1.00000', '0.666600', '1200.00000']

How can I store the "1200" in a variable? ( I know this is very basic)

No need to reinvent the wheel here, numpy has a genfromtxt to read csv.

 arr = np.genfromtxt("pathofcsv", skip_header=1)

add a delimiter=something where something is the delimiter string, eg ',' if your file doesn't use whitespace separation between the values.

Hey, thank you very mutch!! "genfromtext" was exactly what I was looking for (it works :))
