The header you printed shows that the value of TOTVALS
is 12841850.
You're trying to return the data from the 12841850th HDU. See: http://pyfits.readthedocs.org/en/v3.2.0/api_docs/api_files.html#getdata
Вопрос
I'm trying to open a .fits file and read data from it using the pyFITS module for Python 2.7. Below is the code snippet which I'm running to try to attain the data from the file:
location = raw_input("Locaiton of FITS file: ") """user input location for the file"""
hdulist = pyfits.open(location) """opens the .fits file (works properly)"""
print(repr(hdulist[0].header)) """printed values shown below, works properly"""
pyfits.getdata(location, hdulist[0].header['TOTVALS']) """does NOT work"""
I know that the file's being opened properly; when I run print(repr(hdulist[0].header))
, the console shows

The problem arises when I try pyfits.getdata(location, hdulist[0].header['TOTVALS'])
. The error message returned is
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\openFITS.py", line 34, in <module>

return super(HDUList, self).__getitem__(idx)
IndexError: list index out of range
print(len(hdulist))
returns 1; so I know that the index 0 shouldn't be out of range. Thus, the question is why I can't get the raw data in the header 'TOTVALS' from the hdulist, even though it seems that everything else is working fine.
Thanks in advance for your help!
