[gradsusr] Time interval of ave function output.

[Eric Altshuler]

Hello Gibies George,

Try using fwrite to write out your seasonal mean index to a binary file. Then create a new ctl file for the binary data you have just created, which will be a time series of annual values.

Subject: [gradsusr] Time interval of ave function output.

Hello friends,

Can anybody suggest a way to redefine the time interval of a Grads data
variable ?

I need a seasonal mean index with annual time step. I am having daily
data.

I tried it once using ave() function but the output variable is having
daily time interval with the same value repeating 365 times and thereby
wasting RAM space.

Is there a solution for this problem?
