3 parameters are added to return usgs observed values, calculated flo…

In this code revision, several key changes were implemented to enhance the readability and organization of the original code. These changes are summarized as follows:

1- Lists Introduced: Three empty lists (usgs_values_list, flowveldepth_list, and da_buf0_list) were introduced to systematically store values extracted from the corresponding NumPy arrays.

2- Data Appending: Values from usgs_values (which is observed flowrate), flowveldepth (include calculated flow rate), and da_buf[0] (it's a data assimilated flowrate) were appended to their respective lists. This process organizes and captures specific data points.

3- List to Array Conversion: After the loop, the lists were converted into NumPy arrays using np.array(). This step transforms the collected data into arrays for easier manipulation and analysis.

4- Final Arrays: The resulting arrays (usgs_values_observed, flowveldepth_calculated, and da_buf0_array) now contain the actual values extracted from the original arrays during the loop iteration. These arrays are ready for further processing or analysis.

5- reordered the return values to improve the readability

These modifications were made with the intention of improving code organization, enhancing readability, and enabling easier access to specific data points from the original arrays. The revised code structure is designed to facilitate data extraction and subsequent analysis, making it more efficient and maintainable.

Additions

3 returned item including: usgs_values_observed, flowveldepth_calculated, and da_buf0_array

Removals

Changes

• Return values have reordered to be more readable.

Testing

1. t-route need to be recompile, and tested on Lowercolorado example.

For clarity, flowveldepth_value can be replaced by model_flow_value.

I deleted flowveldepth, Sean mentioned its one of the main returns and we don't need to return it again.
