Transposing an array
Added by Felix Meissner about 2 years ago
Hello everybody,
I'm searching for a possibility to transpose an array.
In my case I'm dealing with a 1x1200 array and I want to end up with an 1200x1 array since the further processing of the data requires this form.
Is there an easy way to achieve this with CDO or do I have to take another route here?
I hope I provided all necessary informations and am very happy about any help or advice.
Cheers Felix

Hi Felix,
in general, you can use NCO's ncpdp routine to transpose dimensions, e.g.
ncpdq -a y,x infile.nc outfile.nc

Thank you Karin, this works perfectly for me.
Really appreciate the help.
@Ralf Thehos Yes I'm serious, thanks for your contribution.

hi Felix!
No offense, but there are bots using the forum every now and then. Maybe I was too picky, but IMO your post was too general to be seriously linked to CDO. CDO does not work on arrays, arrays are a term from programming and not for CDO since it works on files. yes, internally you can say there are arrays, but here you did not provide which dimensions are represented as 1200x1 (time,level,lon,lat,y,z). so it is pretty hard to give an adequate answer.
All of this is very typical for a bot.
cheers

Oh, I understand. Thanks for clearing this up. I will keep this in mind and will try to be more precise in future questions.
