This is Lab 3 for ATMS 207.
Your problems for this week (to be submitted to github
):
Problem 1
Using the example code from the lecture
filename='aravg.ann.land_ocean.90S.90N.v5.0.0.202007.asc'
wxdata={'year':[],'temperature':[]} #define dictionary
with open(filename, "r") as f: #read all the lines in the file
alist = f.read().splitlines()
for line in alist: #iterate through lines
wxdata['year'].append(int(line.split()[0]))
wxdata['temperature'].append(float(line.split()[1]))
Add code that will print a table of the top 10 warmest years in the first column and their temperature anomalies to the screen.
Problem 2
Using the data contained within the file Aug2020_Champaign_Temperature_Dewpoint.csv
, write a python program to display the data for a given day on the screen. The day can be specified within the program, for example
date = '2020-08-01'
