[ncl-talk] Argument type mismatch

[Amadou Coulibaly]

Hello NCL users

Using the following command:
fils = systemfunc ("ls /home_dir/wrfout_d01_2014-12-13*")
  f   = addfiles (fils, "r")

  printVarSummary(f)   ; type list; this contiains reference (pointers) to
files

   nfils = dimsizes(fils)
   do nf=0,nfils-1
        contour_tc = wrf_contour(f[nf], wks,tc_plane(it,level,:,:),opts)
 end do
I am getting another error, which is:
fatal:List subscripting used on non-list variable, can't continue
Because the function "wrf_contour" expected "f" as nc_file rather than a
list.

Best
