Re^6: Interpolating data using pdl

I'm able to use your solution. When I try to initiate a piddle with zeroes(5400,2700) it works fine, but zeroes(21600,10800) doesn't work. It shows an error as Probably false alloc of over 1Gb PDL! (set $PDL::BIGPDL = 1 to enable). I tried setting $PDL::BIGPDL=1, but then it crashes. How can we solve this?

`zeroes(21600,10800)` works for me. Are you on 32-bit OS? Then use 64-bit. If your data is going to finish as 8 bits per channel image anyway, then work with `byte` piddles. P.S. BTW, you understand, that your image will be 700 MB (uncompressed), don't you?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

PDL 2.067 removed the `$PDL::BIGPDL` check, because 1GB isn't big anymore. `zeroes(21600,10800)` has about 200,000 elements in, which for `double` (the default) at 8 bytes each would be about 1.6GB. `float` would be half that. `byte` would naturally be an eighth. Which to use depends on both available resources, and the needs of your application.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
