You can simplify by printing out only specific lines that you think are critical, then subdivide sections of code down to the source of the problem so that you don't have to literally issue a print statement after every line.<br><br></div>Jeff Duda<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jan 5, 2017 at 10:19 AM, Justin Hicks <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jhicks2014@gmail.com" target="_blank">jhicks2014@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size:12.8px">GrADS users,</span><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">I have come across a strange problem while running a gradscript.
