Evaluate the output from scipy 2D interpolation along a curve

Question

I have data z sampled from a 2D function f at grid points x, y, as in z = f(x, y).

It is easy to interpolate

Answer 1

It seems that interp2d() behaves they way it does because that is how the corresponding Fortran function was conceived. The only workaround to this (that I can think of) is to call f on pairs of coordinates:

[f(*p)[0] for p in zip(x, y)]
