Hi, I have a list of (x,y) coordinates which I first pass through BinCounts to calculate the number of elements in that list within a specified range. Next, I use ListContourPlot to visualize the distribution with a defined number of contours (easy). What I cannot figure out is how to generate a list of the original (x,y) elements that fall within the boundaries defined by the contours (not so easy?). Apparently, BinCounts does not store the element mappings to specific bins, so I'm out of luck there. Moreover, getting ahold of the contour coordinates themselves is troubling. I've figured out the latter, but remain stuck otherwise. Has anyone else had cause to perfrom such an analysis? Sincerely, Mark
