nws_tools.csv2dict¶

nws_tools.csv2dict(csvfile)[source]¶

Reads 3D nodal coordinates of from a csv file into a Python dictionary

Parameters:

Parameters:	csvfile : str File-name of (or full path to) the csv file holding nodal coordinates. The format of this file HAS to be x, y, z x, y, z x, y, z . . for each node. Thus #rows = #nodes.
Returns:	mydict : dict Nodal coordinates as read from the input csv file. Format is {0: (x, y, z), {1: (x, y, z), {2: (x, y, z), . . Thus the dictionary has #nodes keys.
