What do the different values of the kind argument mean in scipy interpolate interp1d? The <a href="http://docs scipy org/doc/scipy-0 14 0/reference/generated/scipy interpolate interp1d html#scipy interpolate interp1d" rel="nofollow">SciPy documentation</a> explains that `interp1d`'s `kind` argument can take the values `âlinearâ` `ânearestâ` `âzeroâ` `âslinearâ` `âquadraticâ` `âcubicâ` The last three are spline orders and `'linear'` is self-explanatory What do `'nearest'` and `'zero'` do? | ânearestâ returns data point from X nearest to the argument or `interpolates function y=f(x) at the point x using the data point nearest to x` 'zero' I would guess is equivalent to truncation of argument and thus using data point closest toward zero |
How to compare keys of two different dictionaries in Python? I have two dictionaries and I want to compare the values of the corresponding keys For example if I have ````dict1 = {'a':1 'b':0 'c':3} dict2 = {'a':0 'b':0 'c':4} ```` then this should return `False` because `dict2` cannot have a corresponding value larger than that of `dict11` (it was okay in `dict2` that `'a'` had a smaller value than that of `dict1` but not okay that `'c'` in `dict2` had value larger than that of `dict1`) Also it is not allowed if `dict2` has a value that is not listed in `dict1` For instance: ````dict1 = {'a':1 'b':0 'c':3} dict2 = {'a':0 'b':0 would':2} ```` (But it is okay if `dict1` has values that `dict2` does not) In other words `dict2` has to be a subset of `dict1` in regards to both keys and values As soon as the code catches one of these violations I want to immediately stop everything from running and just return False This is what I tried: ````condition = True #True by default for letter in dict2: if dict2[letter] > dict1[letter] or dict1[letter] == None: condition = False break break ```` But I get a `KeyError` when I run into a key that is listed in `dict1` and not in `dict2` How do I fix this? | I think you are looking for something like this: ````condition = all(k in dict1 and dict2[k] <= dict1[k] for k in dict2) ```` You asked in the comments how to read this That is difficult to answer because not everyone would look at it the same way Perhaps if I tell you how I got to that expression it may help I read your question as saying "every key in dict2 must be in dict1 and the value in dict2 must not be greater than the value from dict1" which I re-expressed as "for all k in dict2 k in dict1 and dict2[k] <= dict1[k]" which seemed a clear case for the `all()` function and the `for` move to the end |

be highly appreciated thanks | There are a couple of things wrong with your code as it currently stands The first is that you do not appear to call `app exec_()` anywhere (at least when you run `exarg py`) to actually start your `QApplication` But perhaps you just forgot to include that? Second is that you create your thread inside a function and assign it to the variable `m` As soon as the function `main` ends that local variable is garbage collected and your thread is destroyed You need to make sure this does not happen Either by making `m` a global variable or returning `m` from the function and holding a reference to it or you could not create it inside the function As long as you always hold a reference to your thread it will not be destroyed and you will not see that error message! Finally you should <strong>never</strong> modify GUI objects from a thread directly Qt widgets are not thread safe! What you need to do is define a signal in your thread and connect a slot (from the main thread) to that signal when you create the thread You can then `emit` a signal from your thread (this is thread-safe) which will call a slot in the main thread where you are allowed to modify the GUI <a href="http://stackoverflow com/q/29269539/1994235">This</a> question/answer demonstrates approximately how to do this EDIT: Also the `global myctr` etc code is confusing You should not need that Just access them as `self myctr` from within the thread since you have written `m myctr = ctr` before calling `m start()` |
Best solution to get and store user's real time position? Hi I am writing an Android lbs game I need to: - store user's real time position(lat lon) - get users that are near to a given position I have wrote some back-end api with django and mysql(for example get user name and age by his id) what is the best solution to do what I said above (with django/python)?

How to override save() method of modelform class and added missing information? I just started to learn Django and I had a question I am trying to automatically add the missing information when saving form data I get to change/add the desired "cleaned_data" information by overriding save() method of modelform class but changes are not recorded in the database Actually how to write the modified information? This is code: ````def save(self commit = True *args **kwargs): temp = ServiceMethods(url = self cleaned_data get('url') wsdl_url = self cleaned_data get('wsdl_url')) if not temp get_wsdl_url(): temp make_wsdl_url() if temp get_wsdl_url(): temp make_wsdl() self cleaned_data['wsdl_url'] = temp get_wsdl_url() self cleaned_data['wsdl_description'] = temp get_wsdl_description() super(ServiceForm self) save(commit = commit *args **kwargs) ```` And model: ````class Services(models Model): name = models CharField('ÐмÑ' max_length=256) url = models URLField('СÑÑлка' unique = True) wsdl_url = models URLField('СÑÑлка на WSDL-докÑменÑ' blank=True) description = models TextField('ÐпиÑание ÑеÑвиÑа' blank=True) wsdl_description = models TextField('WSDL опиÑание' blank=True editable=False) added = models DateTimeField('Ðобавлено' auto_now_add=True) ```` TIA | Try setting the data on `self instance` instead of in `self cleaned_data` and let me know if that works |

Python stop recursion once solution is found I have a recursive function which tries to form a certain sum given a list of integers The function works but it gives me all possible solutions I want to break out of the recursive function once a solution is found How can I do that?

There are many possible approaches and all of them have their disadvantages Depending on which browsers you want to support there are a couple of options All of them require client-side JavaScript usage You might want to use the modern <a href="http://en wikipedia org/wiki/Server-sent_events" rel="nofollow">Server-Sent events</a> which allows the server to actively trigger an event in the browser to which the browser can respond as desired A more classical approach would be (long) polling over HTTPS where you do as before but configure the timeout times in client as well as server to be quite large Additionally you need to have JavaScript in place that just repeats the request in case it has timed out Also there are dirty techniques established for preventing a timeout You might want to have to do some research using the terms "server push" "comet" "long polling" Doing so you will probably read about WebSockets (which you do not directly need in my opinion) I guess if I were you I would now choose to use Server-sent events But you have to figure this out yourself depending on your exact requirements By a quick glance the introduction to this article may be a good read: <a href="https://jersey java net/documentation/latest/sse html" rel="nofollow">https://jersey java net/documentation/latest/sse html</a> Also the introduction of the <a href="http://www w3 org/TR/2012/WD-eventsource-20120426/" rel="nofollow">W3C Server-Sent Events specification</a> is nice Quote: <blockquote> Event streams requests can be redirected using HTTP 301 and 307 redirects as with normal HTTP requests <strong>Clients will reconnect if the connection is closed</strong>; a client can be told to stop reconnecting using the HTTP 204 No Content response code Using this API rather than emulating it using XMLHttpRequest or an iframe allows the user agent to make better use of network resources in cases where the user agent implementor and the network operator are able to coordinate in advance Amongst other benefits this can result in significant savings in battery life on portable devices This is discussed further in the section below on connectionless push </blockquote> |

Django User Model Methods So I have Auth and Profile implemented into my system however i would like to extend the User model and I do not know what is considered the 'correct' way of doing this I just want to create a method that returns a link for the user like: ````<a href="URL" class="GroupName">Username</a> ```` I figured that this is probably best done using a method as the link will change and I do not want to be going through all my template files fixing this This may be common to somebody using Django but I have not used it much so I am not well versed in the conventions so any advice would be great | If you are not altering what is stored in the database the easiest way is a proxy model Here is an example straight out of the documentation (<a href="https://docs djangoproject com/en/dev/topics/db/models/#proxy-models" rel="nofollow">https://docs djangoproject com/en/dev/topics/db/models/#proxy-models</a>) ````from django db import models class Person(models Model): first_name = models CharField(max_length=30) last_name = models CharField(max_length=30) class MyPerson(Person): class Meta: proxy = True def do_something(self): # pass ```` If you want to do something more complex than adding methods to the User model such as adding new data fields I would recommend creating a Model with a one-to-one relation to User |
adding multiple values of elem attrib into a variable Started playing with Python and ElementTree very recently to acheive something quite specific I am very nearly there I think but there is one thing that I cannot quite work out I am querying an xml file and pulling back the relevant data - then putting that data into a csv file It all works but the issue is that the elem attrib["text"] actually returns multiple lines - when I put it into a variable the variable and export to a csv it only exports the first line - below is the code I am using ````import os import csv import xml etree cElementTree as ET path = "/share/new" c = csv writer(open("/share/redacted csv" "wb")) c writerow(["S" "R" "T" "R2" "R3"]) for filename in os listdir(path): if filename endswith(' xml'): fullname = os path join(path filename) tree = ET ElementTree(file=(fullname)) for elem in tree iterfind('PropertyList/Property[@name="Sender"]'): c1 = elem attrib["value"] for elem in tree iterfind('PropertyList/Property[@name="Recipient"]'): c2 = elem attrib["value"] for elem in tree iterfind('PropertyList/Property[@name="Date"]'): c3 = elem attrib["value"] for elem in tree iterfind('ChildContext/ResponseList/Response/TextualAnalysis/ExpressionList/Expression/Match'): c4 = elem attrib["textView"] for elem in tree iterfind('ChildContext/ResponseList/Response/TextualAnalysis/ExpressionList/Expression/Match/Matched'): c5 = elem attrib["text"] print elem attrib["text"] print c5 c writerow([(c1) (c2) (c3) (c4) (c5)]) ```` The most important part is right near the bottom - the output of print elem atrrib["text"] is: ````Apples Bananas ```` The output of 'print c5' is the same (just to be clear that is Apples and Bananas on seperate lines) But outputting c5 to a csv only outputs the first line and therefore only Apples appears in the csv I hope this makes sense - what I need to do is output both Apples and Bananas to the csv (in the same cell preferably) The below is in Python 2 7 in development but ideally I need it to work in 2 6 (I realise iterfind is not in 2 6 - I have 2 versions of code already) I would post the xml but it is a bit of a beast - As per suggestion in comments here is a cleaned up XML ```` <?xml version="1 0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?> <Context> <PropertyList duplicates="true"> <Property name="Sender" type="string" value="S:demo1@no-one local"/> <Property name="Recipient" type="string" value="RPFD:no-one local"/> <Property name="Date" type="string" value="Tue 4 Aug 2015 13:24:16 0100"/> </PropertyList> <ChildContext> <ResponseList> <Response> <Description> <Arg /> <Arg /> </Description> <TextualAnalysis version="2 0"> <ExpressionList> <Expression specified=" CLEAN (Apples)" total="1" > <Match textView="Body" truncated="false"> <Surrounding text=" "/> <Surrounding text="How do you like them "/> <Matched cleaned="true" text="Apples " type="expression"/> <Surrounding text="????????

Python write valid json with newlines to file Valid json expects escaped newline characters to be encoded as '\\n' with two backslashes I have data that contains newline characters that I want to save to a file Here is a simplified version: ````data = {'mystring': 'Line 1\nLine 2'} ```` I can encode it with json dumps(): ````import json json_data = json dumps(data) json_data # > '{"mystring": "Line 1\\nLine 2"}' ```` When I print it the newline displays as '\n' not '\\n' (which I find odd but I can live with): ````print(json_data) # > {"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"} ```` However (here is the problem) when I output it to a file the content of the file no longer contains valid json: ````f = open('mydata json' 'w') f write(json_data) f close() ```` If I open the file and read it it contains this: ````{"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"} ```` but I was hoping for this: ````{"mystring": "Line 1\\nLine 2"} ```` Oddly (I think) if I read the file using python's open() the json data is considered valid: ````f = open('mydata json' 'r') json_data = f read() f close() json_data # > '{"mystring": "Line 1\\nLine 2"}' ```` and it decodes OK: ````json loads(json_data) # > {you'mystring': you'Line 1\nLine 2'} ```` My question is <them>why is the data in the file not valid json</them>? If I need another - non Python - application to read it it would probably be incorrect If I copy and paste the file contents and use json loads() on it it fails: ````import json json loads('{"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"}') # > ValueError: Invalid control character at: line 1 column 21 (char 20) ```` Can anybody explain if this is the expected behaviour or am I doing something wrong? | You ran into the pitfall of neglecting the fact that the `\` character is also an escape sequence character in Python Try printing out the last example instead of calling `json loads`: ````>>> print('{"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"}') {"mystring": "Line 1 Line 2"} ```` No way the above is valid JSON What if the `\` character is correctly encoded? ````>>> print('{"mystring": "Line 1\\nLine 2"}') {"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"} ```` Much better you can then: ````>>> json loads('{"mystring": "Line 1\\nLine 2"}') {'mystring': 'Line 1\nLine 2'} ```` Alternatively if you really appreciate being able to copy some text from some other buffer and paste it into your live interpreter to do decode you may consider using the `r`aw modifier for your string: ````>>> print(r'{"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"}') {"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"} >>> json loads(r'{"mystring": "Line 1\nLine 2"}') {'mystring': 'Line 1\nLine 2'} ```` See that the `\` is no longer automatically escaping with the newline Also see: <a href="http://stackoverflow com/questions/42068/how-do-i-handle-newlines-in-json">How do I handle newlines in JSON?</a> and note how this is not a problem that exists strictly within Python |

How can I use \r to make Python print on the same line? Can someone please thoroughly explain how a '\r' works in Python?

string options when using argparse with python I am not quite understanding the following behavior of argparse ````parser add_argument("-option1" type=int nargs='?' const=1 default=1 choices=xrange(1 20) help="help message of option1") parser add_argument("-option2" type=str nargs=1 help="help message of option2") ```` in case of option1 args option1 is an integer when provided in case of option2 args option2 looks like an array of strings I have to use args option2[0] if I want to get the actual string passed with option2 | This is explained directly in the documentation on <a href="https://docs python org/3/library/argparse html#nargs" rel="nofollow">`nargs`</a> Summarizing: For `nargs=N` if `N` is an integer you get a list of `N` values Even if `N` is `1` For `nargs='?'` you get a single value (which may be the default) For `nargs` left off entirely you get whatever the default is for the action If the action is e g `store` that means a single value not a list of one value It even explicitly points out exactly the part that is surprised you: <blockquote> Note that nargs=1 produces a list of one item This is different from the default in which the item is produced by itself </blockquote> |

Too many values to unpack (expected 2) python django tastypie Here is my dict: ````{'interno__exact': False 'formulario__protocolo__id__exact': '5' 'autor__funcionario__funcao__id__exact': '2'} ```` I am getting this error: `too many values to unpack (expected 2)` on this execution: ````count = Avaliacao objects filter( applicable_filters ) ```` Does someone know what am I doing wrong? | too many values too unpack means that you have to have equal amounts of values on each side of the equal sign watch this: ````a b = 1 2 ```` then a would equal 1 and b would equal 2 you need to have an equal amount of things to unpack and thing to make them mean if i type in: ````print(a) print(b) ```` it would say ````1 2 ```` |

improve upon mapped lambdas in Python (pandas) I am digesting several csv files (each with one or more year of data) to categorize medical treatments into broad categories while also keeping only a subset of the original information and even aggregate up to a monthly number (by AR=year and month) of treatments per person (LopNr) Many treatments belong to different categories at the same time (multiple diagnosis codes are listed in the relevant column in the csv thus I separate that field into a column of lists and categorize rows by any diagnosis codes belonging to a relevant range of ICD-9 codes) I am using IOPro to save on memory but I am still running into a segfault (still investigating) The text files are several GBs each but this machine has 256 GB RAM Either one of the packages is buggy or I need a more memory efficient solution I am using versions pandas 0 16 2 np19py26_0 iopro 1 7 1 np19py27_p0 and python 2 7 10 0 under Linux So the original data would look something like this: ````LopNr AR INDATUMA DIAGNOS ⦠1 2007 20070812 C32 F17 1 2007 20070816 C36 ```` And I hope to see aggregates like this: ````LopNr AR month tobacco ⦠1 2007 8 2 ```` By the way I would need Stata dta files in the end but I go through cvs because pandas DataFrame to_stata seemed flaky in my experience but maybe I am missing something there too ````# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import iopro import numpy as np from pandas import * all_treatments = DataFrame() filelist = ['oppenvard20012005' 'oppenvard20062010' 'oppenvard2011' 'oppenvard2012' 'slutenvard1997' 'slutenvard2011' 'slutenvard2012' 'slutenvard19982004' 'slutenvard20052010'] tobacco = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'C30') and (x<'C40')) or ((x >= 'F17') and (x<'F18'))) for x in lst) nutrition = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'D50') and (x<'D54')) or ((x >= 'E10') and (x<'E15')) or ((x >= 'E40') and (x<'E47')) or ((x >= 'E50') and (x<'E69'))) for x in lst) mental = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'F') and (x<'G')) ) for x in lst) alcohol = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'F10') and (x<'F11')) or ((x >= 'K70') and (x<'K71'))) for x in lst) circulatory = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'I') and (x<'J')) ) for x in lst) dental = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'K02') and (x<'K04')) ) for x in lst) accident = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'V01') and (x<'X60')) ) for x in lst) selfharm = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'X60') and (x<'X85')) ) for x in lst) cancer = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'C') and (x< WOULD')) ) for x in lst) endonutrimetab = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'E') and (x<'F')) ) for x in lst) pregnancy = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'OF) and (x<'P')) ) for x in lst) other_stress = lambda lst: any( (((x >= 'J00') and (x<'J48')) or ((x >= 'L20') and (x<'L66')) or ((x >= 'K20') and (x<'K60')) or ((x >= 'R') and (x<'S')) or ((x >= 'X86') and (x<'Z77'))) for x in lst) for file in filelist: filename = 'PATH' file ' txt' adapter = iopro text_adapter(filename parser='csv' field_names=True output='dataframe' delimiter='\t') treatments = adapter[['LopNr' 'AR' 'DIAGNOS' 'INDATUMA']][:] treatments['month'] = treatments['INDATUMA'] % 10000 treatments['day'] = treatments['INDATUMA'] % 100 treatments['month'] = (treatments['month']-treatments['day'])/100 del treatments['day'] diagnoses = treatments['DIAGNOS'] str split(' ') del treatments['DIAGNOS'] treatments['tobacco'] = diagnoses map(tobacco) treatments['nutrition'] = diagnoses map(nutrition) treatments['mental'] = diagnoses map(mental) treatments['alcohol'] = diagnoses map(alcohol) treatments['circulatory'] = diagnoses map(circulatory) treatments['dental'] = diagnoses map(dental) treatments['accident'] = diagnoses map(accident) treatments['selfharm'] = diagnoses map(selfharm) treatments['cancer'] = diagnoses map(cancer) treatments['endonutrimetab'] = diagnoses map(endonutrimetab) treatments['pregnancy'] = diagnoses map(pregnancy) treatments['other_stress'] = diagnoses map(other_stress) all_treatments = all_treatments append(treatments) all_treatments = all_treatments groupby(['LopNr' 'AR' 'month']) aggregate(np count_nonzero) # sum() all_treatments = all_treatments astype(int copy=False raise_on_error=False) all_treatments to_csv('PATH csv') ```` | A few comments: -

You initialize `all_treatments` to a DataFrame and then append to it This is very inefficient Try `all_treatments = list()` and add `all_treatments = pd concat(all_treatments ignore_index=True)` outside the loop just before your `groupby` In addition it should be `all_treatments append(treatments)` (vs `all_treatments = all_treatments append(treatments)`) - To calculate the month for the purpose of grouping you can use: `all_treatments['month'] = all_treatments INDATUMA % 10000 // 100` - Lastly instead of applying your lambda functions to each file once its read try applying them to the `all_treatments` DataFrame instead p s You may also want to try ` sum()` on your `groupby` statement instead of ` aggregate(np count_nonzero)` |

Python: Inherit class functions (property getter) does not work Consider the following code: ````class BaseClass(object): def _del_property(attr): """Abstract deller""" def del_attr(self): setattr(self attr None) return del_attr def _set_property(attr): """Abstract setter """ def set_attr(self x): setattr(self attr x) return set_attr def _get_property(attr): """Abstract getter""" def get_attr(self): getattr(self attr) return get_attr _name = None name = property(fget=_get_property('_name') fset=_set_property('_name')) class Component(BaseClass): _material = None material = property(fget=_get_property('_material') fset=_set_property('_material') fdel=_del_property('_material')) ```` How come _get_property _set_property and _del_property are not inherited? How can it be achieved? It should work for derived classes in the same source file as well as for derived classes in a separate file which import this source file with a ````from filename import * ```` | When creating a class a new namespace is created Python reads the block of code inside your class block and then passes the information to `type` (or the corresponding metaclass) In this case python complains because when setting up the `Component` class `_get_property` is not defined within that scope -- perhaps `BaseClass _get_property` but that probably will not work like you want it to either One easy fix is to make those functions module level functions since the class namespace has access to the module namespace: ````def _del_property(attr): """Abstract deller""" def del_attr(self): setattr(self attr None) return del_attr def _set_property(attr): """Abstract setter """ def set_attr(self x): setattr(self attr x) return set_attr def _get_property(attr): """Abstract getter""" def get_attr(self): getattr(self attr) return get_attr class BaseClass(object): _name = None name = property(fget=_get_property('_name') fset=_set_property('_name')) class Component(BaseClass): _material = None material = property(fget=_get_property('_material') fset=_set_property('_material') fdel=_del_property('_material')) ```` Perhaps it is more instructive to look at the class while we are creating it: ````class BaseClass(object): def _del_property(attr): """Abstract deller""" def del_attr(self): setattr(self attr None) return del_attr print type(_del_property) print type(BaseClass _del_property) ```` This will print: ````<type 'function'> <type 'instancemethod'> ```` So you are dealing with a regular function inside `BaseClass` but it becomes an `instancemethod` after `type` does it is magic <hr> Personally I would just create a convenience function: ````def property_api(name fget=True fset=True fdel=True): return property(fget=_get_property(name) if fget else None fset=_set_property(name) if fset else None fdel=_del_property(name) if fdel else None) ```` Which you can then use If you really want to you could even put it on `BaseClass` as a `staticmethod`: ```` class BaseClass(object): property_api = staticmethod(property_api) ```` Then your derived classes would look like: ```` class DerivedClass(BaseClass): _material = None material = BaseClass property_api('_material') ```` |

Is this a valid method for CPU time comparison between C++ and Python?

Python is not like Java where each class definition needs to be in its own file If your `User` and `Customer` classes are closely bound to each other by all means keep them in the same module! |

A Djangoic method of checking if it is an allowed subdomain I have to solve this little problem in Python/Django and I am wondering which is the best way to go about it I have a list of allowed domains e g `www google com` `mail google com` I would like to check if a domain is allowed or not Now a request from either `www google com` is valid and a request from `mail google com` is valid too However I would like to count `www` as a wildcard which means that if I had the same list of allowed domains as above A request from `docs google com` would be considered valid and so a request from `google com` even though they do not exist in the list but since `www google com` exists and `www ` is a leading wildcard both domains match What would be the best way to implement this?

Anyway in your code you are selecting every domain objects from db and then looking for appropriate domain name with a loop This operation would unnecessarily slow down your process Instead of selecting them all you should let database to handle the elimination of not related domains ````def dispatch(self request *args **kwargs): url = request REQUEST['url'] host = urlparse urlparse(url) netloc lower() strip() domains = Domain objects filter(domain=host) if len(domains): return super(ProcessRequestView self) dispatch(request *args **kwargs) else: newHost = ' %s' %host dotPosition = -1 for i in range(newHost count(' ')): dotPosition = newHost find(' ' dotPosition 1) domains = Domain objects filter(domain=newHost[dotPosition:]) if len(domains): return super(ProcessRequestView self) dispatch(request *args **kwargs) return HttpResponseForbidden() ```` I hope it will help |

Python Matplotlib line plot aligned with contour/imshow How can I set the visual width of one subplot equal to the width of another subplot using Python and Matplotlib? The first plot has a fixed aspect ratio and square pixels from imshow I would then like to put a lineplot below that but am not able to do so and have everything aligned I am fairly sure the solution involves the information on this <a href="http://matplotlib org/users/transforms_tutorial html">Transform Tutorial</a> page I have tried working with fig transFigure ax transAxes ax transData etc but have not been successful I need to find the width and height and offsets of the axes in the upper panel and then be able to set the width height and offsets of the axes in the lower panel Axis labels and ticks and etc should not be included or change the alignment For example the following code ````fig = plt figure(1) fig clf() data = np random random((3 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 3) ax = fig add_subplot(211) ax imshow(data interpolation='none') c = ax contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') ax2 = fig add_subplot(212) ```` <img src="http://i stack imgur com/NrKDd png" alt="enter image description here"> | The outline of matplotlib axes are controlled by three things: - The axes' bounding box within the figure (controlled by a subplot specification or a specific extent such as `fig add_axes([left bottom width height])` The axes limits (not counting tick labels) will always be within this box - The `adjustable` parameter that controls whether changes in limits or aspect ratio are accomodated by changing data limits or the shape of the axes "box" This can be `"datalim"` `"box"` or `"box-forced"` (The latter is for use with shared axes ) - The axes limits and aspect ratio For plots with a fixed aspect ratio the axes box or data limits (depending on `adjustable`) will be changed to maintain the specified aspect ratio The aspect ratio refers to data coordinates <them>not</them> the shape of the axes directly For the simplest case: ````import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt fig axes = plt subplots(nrows=2) data = np random random((3 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 3) axes[0] imshow(data interpolation='none') c = axes[0] contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') axes[1] set_aspect(1) plt show() ```` <img src="http://i stack imgur com/fDxoF png" alt="enter image description here"> <hr> <h2>Shared Axes</h2> However if you want to ensure that it stays the same shape regardless and you are okay with both plots having the same data limits you can do: ````import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt fig axes = plt subplots(nrows=2) sharex=True sharey=True) plt setp(axes flat adjustable='box-forced') data = np random random((5 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 5) axes[0] imshow(data interpolation='none') c = axes[0] contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') axes[1] plot([-0 5 2 5] [-0 5 4 5]) axes[1] set_aspect(1) plt show() ```` <img src="http://i stack imgur com/aE9aq png" alt="enter image description here"> However you may notice that this does not look quite right That is because the second subplot is controlling the extents of the first subplot due to the order we plotted things in Basically with shared axes whatever we plot last will control the initial extent so if we just swap the order we are plotting in: ```` import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt fig axes = plt subplots(nrows=2 sharex=True sharey=True) plt setp(axes flat adjustable='box-forced') data = np random random((5 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 5) axes[1] plot([-0 5 2 5] [-0 5 4 5]) axes[1] set_aspect(1) axes[0] imshow(data interpolation='none') c = axes[0] contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') plt show() ```` <img src="http://i stack imgur com/IVzy2 png" alt="enter image description here"> Of course if you do not care about the interactive zooming/panning of the plots being linked you can skip the shared axes altogether and just to: ````import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt fig axes = plt subplots(nrows=2) data = np random random((5 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 5) axes[0] imshow(data interpolation='none') c = axes[0] contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') axes[1] plot([-0 5 2 5] [-0 5 4 5]) # Copy extents and aspect from the first axes axes[1] set_aspect(axes[0] get_aspect()) axes[1] axis(axes[0] axis()) plt show() ```` <hr> <h2>Non-Shared Axes</h2> If you do not want the two axes to have the same data extents it is possible to force them to be the same size (though if you interactively zoom they will not be linked) To do this you need to calculate what the aspect ratio for the second plot should be based on its extents and the extents/aspect of the first plot ````import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt fig axes = plt subplots(nrows=2) data = np random random((3 3)) xaxis = np arange(0 3) yaxis = np arange(0 3) axes[0] imshow(data interpolation='none') c = axes[0] contour(xaxis yaxis data colors='k') axes[1] plot(np linspace(0 10 100) np random normal(0 1 100) cumsum()) # Calculate the proper aspect for the second axes aspect0 = axes[0] get_aspect() if aspect0 == 'equal': aspect0 = 1 0 dy = np abs(np different(axes[1] get_ylim())) dx = np abs(np different(axes[1] get_xlim())) aspect = aspect0 / (float(dy) / dx) axes[1] set_aspect(aspect) plt show() ```` <img src="http://i stack imgur com/pOD3f png" alt="enter image description here"> |

How to check for pipes in directory traversal? I have a Python program that traverses a directory and generates md5sums On one file it gets stuck Running `ls -lA` I found that it has the attributes `prw-------` Some googling later I found that this indicates a pipe How to check for pipes in my traversal? I just want to skip this file <hr> My code for traversing is: ````for dirpath _ files in walk(folder): for fname in files: print join(dirpath fname) if not islink(join(dirpath fname)): # do something with the file here I pass it to myClass myClass addFile(dirpath fname) ```` | You do not really need to test for pipes explicitly you only want to look for files Use `os path isfile()`; it will return `False` for a pipe but `True` for an actual file: ````$ ls -l total 0 -rw-rw-r-- 1 mj mj 0 Sep 7 12:27 actualfile prw-rw-r-- 1 mj mj 0 Sep 7 12:25 pipe >>> os path isfile('pipe') False >>> os path isfile('actualfile') True ```` |

Cython: Nesting a union within a struct In Cython glue declarations how do I represent a C `struct` type containing an anonymous union? For example if I have a C header file `mystruct h` containing ````struct mystruct { union { double da; uint64_t ia; }; }; ```` then in the corresponding ` pyd` file ````cdef extern from "mystruct h": struct mystruct: # what goes here??? ```` I tried this: ````cdef extern from "mystruct h": struct mystruct: union {double da; uint64_t ia;}; ```` but that only gave me "Syntax error in C variable declaration" on the `union` line | You cannot nest declarations to the best of my knowledge and Cython does not support anonymous unions AFAIK Try the following: ````cdef union mystruct_union: double lower_d uint64_t lower cdef struct mystruct: mystruct_union un ```` Now access the union members as `un lower_d` and `un lower` |

How to prevent injection attack in CREATE query in python mysql I know the proper way to avoid injection attack in SELECT or INSERT queries using python module MySQLdb is: `cursor execute("SELECT spam eggs sausage FROM breakfast WHERE price < %s" (max_price ))` However when I tried to apply the same rule in CREATE query it returns error My code: `cursor execute("CREATE DATABASE %s;" ("test" ))` It reports syntax error: `_mysql_exceptions ProgrammingError: (1064 "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''test'' at line 1")` It seems it is because the query adds single quote to the db name and Mysql does not allow that in CREATE query?

python fractions - dash being parsed as "2013" => Invalid literal for Fraction: Using scrapy to get recipes having trouble parsing the strings: I am attempting to parse this string "1 â 1 1/2 cup Grated Raw Cauliflower" and the dash is being interpreted by python as a the following "ValueError: Invalid literal for Fraction: you'\u2013' " Is there anyway I can error handle so the whole program does not throw?

append 2 hex values in python I am trying to append some hex values in python and I always seem to get 0x between the number From what I searched either this is not possible without converting it into a lit of values ??

If I convert to integer I get the sum of the two and converting it to hex is a different value than `0x7b80000` | I do not think you want to "append" them Doing integer arithmetic by using strings is a bad idea I think you want to bit-shift `a` into the right place and OR them together: ````>>> a = 0x7B >>> b = 0x80000 >>> >>> hex( (a<<20) | b ) '0x7b80000' ```` Perhaps if you were more specific about what these numbers are and what exactly you are trying to accomplish I could provide a more general answer |
Circular Hough Transform misses circles I have read a lot about the Circular Hough transform on Stack Overflow but I seem to be missing something I wrote a program that is supposed to detect the circles of a "Bull's Eye" target However even after playing with the parameters the algorithm is quite bad - it ignores most of the circles and one time it finds a circle but seems to "wander off" I have even tried applying an "Unsharp Mask" to no avail I have added my code the image I started with and the output I hope someone can point me at the right direction ````import cv2 import cv2 cv as cv import numpy as np import math # Load Image img = cv2 imread('circles1 png' 0) # Apply Unsharp Mask tmp = cv2 medianBlur(img 5) img = cv2 addWeighted(img 1 5 tmp -0 5 0) cimg = cv2 cvtColor(img cv2 COLOR_GRAY2BGR) # Hough Transform circles = cv2 HoughCircles(img cv CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT 1 5 param1=100 param2=100 minRadius=0 maxRadius=0) circles = np uint16(np around(circles)) # Go over circles eliminating the ones that are not cocentric enough height width = img shape center = (width/2 height/2) for i in circles[0 :]: # draw the outer circle if math sqrt((center[0]-i[0])**2 (center[1]-i[1])**2) < 15: cv2 circle(cimg (i[0] i[1]) i[2] (0 255 0) 1) # draw the center of the circle cv2 circle(cimg (i[0] i[1]) 2 (0 0 255) 3) cv2 imshow('detected circles' cimg) cv2 waitKey(0) cv2 destroyAllWindows() ```` Quick explanation: I load the image apply Unsharp Mask use the Hough Transfrom to detect circles then draw the circles that are close to the center (I found that the other circles are false circles) I tried playing with the parameters and this is the best I got I feel like this is a simple enough problem which has me buffled I appriciate any help My input image: <a href="http://i stack imgur com/Fvarg png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i stack imgur com/Fvarg png" alt="Input image"></a> My output image: <a href="http://i stack imgur com/DaH8r png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i stack imgur com/DaH8r png" alt="Output image"></a> | As I mentioned in my comment you will need to run successive iterations of `cv2 HoughCircles` for different range of radii to ensure that you get all of the circles With the way the Circular Hough Transform works specifying a minimum and maximum radius that has quite a large range will be inaccurate and will also be slow They do not tell you this in the documentation but for the Circular Hough Transform to work successfully the following two things need to be valid: ````maxRadius < 3*minRadius maxRadius - minRadius < 100 ```` With the above blindly making the minimum radius very small and the maximum radius very large will not give you great results Therefore what you could do is start at say `radius=1` then iterate up to `radius=300` in steps of 20 Between each chunk of 20 run `cv2 HoughCircles` and update your image with these contours Doing this requires very little modification to your code BY THE WAY I removed the unsharp masking it because I was getting poor results with it I also changed a couple of parameters in `cv2 HoughCircles` slightly to get this to work as best as possible given your situation: ````import cv2 import cv2 cv as cv import numpy as np import math # Load Image img = cv2 imread('circles1 png' 0) cimg = cv2 cvtColor(img cv2 COLOR_GRAY2BGR) # Specify different radii radii = np arange(0 310 10) # For each pair of radii for idx in range(len(radii)-1): # Get the minimum and maximum radius # Note you need to add 1 to each minimum # as the maximum of the previous pair covers this new minimum minRadius = radii[idx]+1 maxRadius = radii[idx+1] # Hough Transform - Change here circles = cv2 HoughCircles(img cv CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT 1 5 param1=25 param2=75 minRadius=minRadius maxRadius=maxRadius) # Skip if no circles are detected - Change here if circles is None: continue circles = np uint16(np around(circles)) # Go over circles eliminating the ones that are not cocentric enough height width = img shape center = (width/2 height/2) for i in circles[0 :]: # draw the outer circle if math sqrt((center[0]-i[0])**2 (center[1]-i[1])**2) < 15: cv2 circle(cimg (i[0] i[1]) i[2] (0 255 0) 1) # draw the center of the circle cv2 circle(cimg (i[0] i[1]) 2 (0 0 255) 3) cv2 imshow('detected circles' cimg) cv2 waitKey(0) cv2 destroyAllWindows() ```` I get this figure: <a href="http://i stack imgur com/GQzDU png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i stack imgur com/GQzDU png" alt="enter image description here"></a> Unfortunately it is not perfect as it does not detect all of the circles You will have to play around with the `cv2 HoughCircles` function until you get good results <hr> However I would not recommend using `cv2 HoughCircles` here May I suggest using <a href="http://docs opencv org/modules/imgproc/doc/structural_analysis_and_shape_descriptors html#findcontours" rel="nofollow">`cv2 findContours`</a> instead? This finds all of the contours in the image In this case these will be the black circles However you need to reverse the image because `cv2 findContours` assumes non-zero pixels are object pixels so we can subtract 255 from the image assuming a `np uint8` type: ````# Make copy of original image cimg2 = cv2 cvtColor(img cv2 COLOR_GRAY2BGR) # Find contours contours _ = cv2 findContours(255 - img cv2 RETR_LIST cv CV_CHAIN_APPROX_NONE) # Draw all detected contours on image in green with a thickness of 1 pixel cv2 drawContours(cimg2 contours -1 color=(0 255 0) thickness=1) # Show the image cv2 imshow('detected circles' cimg2) cv2 waitKey(0) cv2 destroyAllWindows() ```` This is what I get: <a href="http://i stack imgur com/6jOJ3 png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i stack imgur com/6jOJ3 png" alt="enter image description here"></a> |

as I add a symbol to a label that has textVariable ````from tkinter import * v=Tk() a=IntVar() a set(5) l=Label(textvariable=a) l pack() ```` How I can add the simbol "$" to the label | First of all you should take a look at the <a href="http://effbot org/tkinterbook/label htm" rel="nofollow">docs</a> and discover how `Label`s the `textvariable` option and the <a href="http://effbot org/tkinterbook/variable htm" rel="nofollow">Tkinter Variable Classes</a> are working since you mixed a few things up However if you just want to display a `$` in the label you should use the Label's `text` option instead of the `textvariable` option: ````from tkinter import * v = Tk() l = Label(text='$') l pack() ```` If you want to connect a Tkinter Variable with the Label you could use the textvariable option However you mixed those up a bit To display characters like the `$` you do not need a `IntVar()` but a `StringVar()` Using the `textvariable` option gives you the possibility to auto update the Label's content if the variable's content (`IntVar()` `StringVar()` `DoubleVar()`) changes For the sake of completeness using a `StringVar()` to display `$` in the label which does not seem to make much sense in your case would be like the following: ````from tkinter import * v = Tk() a = StringVar() a set('$') l = Label(textvariable=a) l pack() ```` |

How can I properly copy nested dictionary objects? I am working on a project with <strong>Python 2 7</strong> where I have a "complex" dictionary structure and I was trying to do something like this: ````generic_dict = { 'user': {'created': {} 'modified': {} 'errors': {}} 'usermon': {'created': {} 'modified': {} 'ignored': {} 'errors': {}} log_data = { 'esp': generic_dict 'por': generic_dict 'sui': generic_dict 'ben': generic_dict 'mex': generic_dict 'arg': generic_dict } ```` I was trying to use the generic dict to avoid repeating code but I have a problem if I do like this when I modify any of the country dicts (esp ben por) all are modifying at the same time Let us assume the dictionary is empty and I do this ````log_data['esp']['user']['created']['today'] = 'asdasdasda' ```` all the other dicts now have the same value like generic_dict is the same all of them ````print log_data['ben']['user']['created'] Output: {'today': 'asdasdasda'} print log_data['ben']['user']['created'] Output: {'today': 'asdasdasda'} ```` I understand what is happening but I do not know how to avoid that - Which is the best way copy nested dictionary objects ? | You can use <a href="https://docs python org/2/library/copy html#copy deepcopy" rel="nofollow">`copy deepcopy`</a> to create a new copy of the `generic_dict` object like this ````from copy import deepcopy log_data = { 'esp': deepcopy(generic_dict) 'por': deepcopy(generic_dict) 'sui': deepcopy(generic_dict) 'ben': deepcopy(generic_dict) 'mex': deepcopy(generic_dict) 'arg': deepcopy(generic_dict) } ```` <hr> Otherwise you can have a constructor function like this ````def generic_dict(): return {'user': {'created': {} 'modified': {} 'errors': {}} 'usermon': {'created': {} 'modified':{} 'ignored': {} 'errors': {}}} ```` And then call it to create a new dictionary object every time like this ````log_data = { 'esp': generic_dict() 'por': generic_dict() 'sui': generic_dict() 'ben': generic_dict() 'mex': generic_dict() 'arg': generic_dict() } ```` |
