@zrzka Cool, thanks!

Also, another possible solution I thought of to use data files from Dropbox in Pythonista: you can "open" the data file in Pythonista, use editor.get_path() to get its full path, and then hardcode that into your script. As far as I can tell, once Pythonista has "opened" a file from Dropbox, it is allowed to access it forever, even after you close the editor tab for the file. Of course this is far from optimal, it requires modifying every script to use the full paths, and it only works if the data file has a file extension that Pythonista accepts.

import numpy filename = 'YGa69ObX6WFj9mYa4EmW.csv' a = numpy.recfromcsv(filename) print(a[0]) print(a.dtype)

Works nicely but the third field is bytes instead of datetime64[ms].

@dgelessus thanks that helps a lot, and makes a lot sense. I'll make sure to not use input() on version 2. Even though I was just making files to mess around with not for any real purpose. Thanks a lot for explaining it.

Aha! Thank you very much.

Somehow I hadn't noticed that at first. I did notice it upon further playing, but thank you for your further elaboration.

Thank you @dgelessus, i will try your pointers and report back.

@Webmaster4o I haven't created anything that fancy. I recently read the “The Art of LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Programming (Full Color)” book by Terry Griffin and tried to recreate the PID controlled line follower (chapter 19) in Python instead of in the Mindstorms environment. I have uploaded the programs and a more detailed description in my new github account.
