get_axis_number_from_axis_name

ndcube.utils.cube.get_axis_number_from_axis_name(axis_name, world_axis_physical_types)

Returns axis number (numpy ordering) given a substring unique to a world axis type string.

Parameters:

• axis_name (str) – Name or substring of name of axis as defined by NDCube.world_axis_physical_types
• world_axis_physical_types (iterable of str) – Output from NDCube.world_axis_physical_types for relevant cube, i.e. iterable of string axis names.

Returns:

axis_index[0] (int) – Axis number (numpy ordering) corresponding to axis name
