[Paraview] Question about modify data in VTK files

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

You can do similar things simply using Python and numpy, instead of matlab.
Numpy is included in the Python distributed with ParaView, so you can use
it in pvpython or Python shell in the GUI to open csv [1] and process it
add appropriate before saving out.
