I'm working with the example scripts. I was trying to run the following example In the Merger Trees section :
fields=['SubhaloMass', 'SubfindID', 'SnapNum']
start=100
for i in range(start, start+5):
tree = il.sublink.loadTree(basePath, 135, GroupFirstSub[i], fields=fields, onlyMPB=True)
plt.plot(tree['Snapnum'], tree['SubhaloMass'] * 1e10 / 0.704 ,'-')
plt.yscale('log')
plt.xlabel('Snapshot Number')
plt.ylabel('Total Subhalo Mass [$M\odot$]')
and get an error: ValueError: zero-size array to reduction operation maximum which has no identity , with this traceback:
ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-95-9ce9d16cf6f9> in <module>()
4 #fig, axs=plt.subplots(ncols=2, figsize= (14,6))
5 for i in range(start, start+5):
----> 6 tree = il.sublink.loadTree(basePath, 135, GroupFirstSub[i], fields=fields, onlyMPB=True)
7 plt.plot(tree['Snapnum'], tree['SubhaloMass'] * 1e10 / 0.704 ,'-')
8 # axs[0].plot(tree['Snapnum'], tree['SubhaloMass'] * 1e10 / 0.704 ,'-')

It seems that somewhere there is an empty array passing through the functions. I have downloaded the full merger trees for the Illustris-3 simulation that i'm working with (First question: 46 tree_extended.hdf5 files, is that ok ? i didn't find where to look to check if my merger trees are complete).
Second question: Do you have a clue of what is going on?
Many thanks in advance!

Already solved! There was a problem with my path to the trees directory (Sublink in place of SubLink). Oddly, there was no error message involving the path, and a counter in sublink.py was 0, and that triggered the latter error :
numTreeFiles = len(glob.glob(treePath(basePath,'*'))) #line 51 ! In light of future problems with this, it could be a good practice to put some control and error message about the path to the trees directory. When i changed the basePath name for example, this error message ocurred, so i discarded for some time a path name problem. Just a suggestion Many thanks.

Glad that it was a minor problem. You're right, there is very little control logic in the example scripts - they were made very minimal, so as to hopefully be understandable and changeable. If you want to make a pull request though I'm happy to include any reasonable improvements you might make.
In my own stuff, I generally would make/save a "simulation parameters" dictionary type object, to store all the related meta-data for each simulation. This would include paths and number of files, etc, to avoid filesystem searches such as glob.glob().
