why numpy.ndarray is object is not callable in my simple for python loop

I loaded a text file containing a two column matrix (e.g. below) 

[ 1   3
  2   4
  3   5 
  2   0]

My calculation is just to sum each row i.e. 1+3, 2+4, 3+5 and 2+0. I am using the below code:

data=np.loadtxt(fname="textfile.txt")## to load the above two column
xy= data
for XY in xy:
   i=0  
   Z=XY(i,0)+XY(i,1)
   i=i+1      
   print (Z)

But I received an error saying numpy.ndarray object is not callable. Why does this happen? How can I do this simple calculation? Thanks.

Solution

  • The error TypeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object is not callable means that you tried to call a numpy array as a function.

    Use

    Z=XY[0]+XY[1]

    Instead of

    Z=XY(i,0)+XY(i,1)
