help with plt.fill_between

[maria]

Hi,

I want to write this script in a shorter way maybe using do loops.
Also in the way the script is written the instruction plt.fill_between is giving me
the following error: ValueError: Argument dimensions are incompatible

Any help? Also how do I attach a file to this message?

Lions, Tigers and Bears. Oh my!

This is some of the most awful code to look at!

maybe using do loops

they are called for loops in python.

Do you have the specs?
It might be easier to rewrite.

Also, when posting error, please include the full traceback as there is
important information to help with debugging, including line number of the
code causing the error.
