matplotlib radial averaging

# get some image
image = data.coins()
image = image[:,0:303]

# create array of radii
x,y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(image.shape[1]),np.arange(image.shape[0]))
R = np.sqrt(x**2+y**2)

# calculate the mean
f = lambda r : image[(R >= r-.5) & (R < r+.5)].mean()

mean = np.vectorize(f)(r)

# plot it
