Faster way to "shift" array? [message #84785]

I have a longitude array which ranges from 0 to 360 but I want it to range from -180 to 180.

Currently I'm doing this:
lon=shift(lon, n_elements(lon)/2.)
lon[where(lon GT 180)]=lon[where(lon GT 180)]-360.

The lon array is 3600 elements and the shift command is taking around 1 second. When multiplied by the thousands of files I need to handle this becomes quite a considerable time component.

Is there a faster way to do this?

Cheers

Rob
