[ncl-talk] file selection

[Saurabh Singh]

*NCL version : 6.3.0*
*OS: UBUNTU*

I am working with hourly WRF files for an year to extract variables. i use
add-files to add hourly files for an year. The problem is there are too
many files in a year which makes the simulation very slow. in order to
overcome this i want to select every 3rd file in the directory (i.e making
extraction of 3 hourly files) . My problem is that , is there any way i can
change my command:

*files = systemfunc("ls -1 /media/cee2/cee2/1988knew/wrfout_d01_1988*") +
".nc"   a = addfiles(files,"r")*  to select every 3-hourly files in the
directory ?
