Python3 with .csv files

I have generated a .csv file with a list of assets and have had to go back and make some changes. which require me to regenerate my NFT Images(done this multiple times at this point) But now the script isn't recognizing my .csv file and even allowing me to run the script that has worked flawlessly up until this point...
def generateOneRandRow(ADATvID):
FILENAME = "ADA Tv" + str(ADATvID)
NO = ADATvID
BACKGROUND = randBackground()
ACCESSORIES = randAccessories()
HEAD = randHead()
HAT = randHat()
BODY = randBody()
CHEST = randChest()
ARMS = randArms()
FACE = randFace()
singleRow = [FILENAME, NO, BACKGROUND, ACCESSORIES, HEAD, HAT, BODY, CHEST, ARMS, FACE]
def checkIfExists(checkRow):
aData = pd.read_csv('adalist.csv')
index_list = aData[(aData['Background'] == checkRow[2])
& (aData['Accessories'] == checkRow[3]) &
(aData['Head'] == checkRow[4]) &
(aData['Hat'] == checkRow[5]) &
(aData['Body'] == checkRow[6]) &
(aData['Chest'] == checkRow[7]) &
(aData['Arms'] == checkRow[8]) &
(aData['Face'] == checkRow[9])].index.tolist()
if index_list == []:
return False
else:
return True
df = pd.read_csv(adalist.csv)
rowCount = df["NO"].count()
print("number of rows is:" + str(rowCount))
the first appearance of adalist.csv shows fine. the last appearance is giving me WHY!?!?!?!
The .csv is in the same Source folder as everything else... this error just occurred and wont even allow me to press Run on my script.
As stated before, this script ran FLAWLESSLY multiple times, Up until I muted some code to convert the .csv into JSON for Metadata. even removing the JSON conversion its still not recognizing the .csv
Please help... I don't have the days it took me to re organize 3500 Images to my Liking [Face Palm]

Query an AOV existence in Maya

I'm trying to write a script that makes it easier to create Light AOV's using LPE's (Light Path Expressions).
But I just can't find a way to query the existence of previously created AOV's and skip those.
I'm following a tutorial I found from Arvid Schneider so some steps are from his video.
Here is what I have so far:
custAovLst = []
for lightSel in range(len(LightList)):
lgt_name = cmds.listRelatives(LightList, shapes = 1)
aov ='setAttr -type "string" {}.aiAov {};'.format(lgt_name[lightSel], 'lgt_' + lgt_name[lightSel].replace("Shape", ""))
mel.eval(aov)
for light in LightList:
aovName = cmds.getAttr(light + '.aiAov')
custAovLst.append(aovName)
def aovCreate():
for aovPass in custAovLst:
if cmds.attributeQuery(aovPass , node = ".aiAov", ex = True):
pass
else:
lightAov = aovs.AOVInterface().addAOV(aovPass, aovType='rgba')
aiAov = pmc.PyNode(lightAov.node)
aiAov.lightPathExpression.set("C.<L.'" + aovPass + "'>.*")
aovCreate()
Any help or advice on how to achieve this or a better way to go on hits is more than welcome!

I ended up using a list with referenceQuery command.
aovList = cmds.ls(type = "aiAOV")
deleteNode = [node for node in aovList if 'lgt' in str(node) if not
cmds.referenceQuery(node, inr = 1)]
cmds.delete(deleteNode)

Optimize output of a script by varying input parameters

I have a written a script that uses the code below and I would like to optimize rsi_high and rsi_low to get the best sharpe_ratio:
#
import numpy
import talib as ta
global rsi_high, rsi_low
rsi_high = 63
rsi_low = 41
def myTradingSystem(DATE, OPEN, HIGH, LOW, CLOSE, VOL, exposure, equity, settings):
''' This system uses trend following techniques to allocate capital into the desired equities'''
nMarkets = CLOSE.shape[1] # SHAPE OF NUMPY ARRAY
result, rsi_pos = numpy.apply_along_axis(rsicalc, axis=0, arr=CLOSE)
pos = numpy.asarray(rsi_pos, dtype=numpy.float64)
return pos, settings
def rsicalc(num):
# print rsi_high
try:
rsival = ta.RSI(numpy.array(num,dtype='f8'),timeperiod=14)
if rsival[14] > rsi_high: pos_rsi = 1
elif rsival[14] < rsi_low: pos_rsi = -1
else: pos_rsi = 0
except:
rsival = 0
pos_rsi = 0
return rsival, pos_rsi
def mySettings():
''' Define your trading system settings here '''
settings = {}

I suspect that using something like scipy minimize function would do the trick, but I am having trouble understanding how to package my script so that it can be in a usable form.
I have tried putting everything in a function and then running all the code through a number of loops, each time incrementing values but there must be a more elegant way of doing this.
Apologies for posting all my code but I thought it would help if the responder wanted to reproduce my setup and for anyone who is new to quantiacs to see a real example who is faced with the same issue.
Thanks for your help in advance!

How to play a sound when a value increases by 1 between loops? What does the code look like that identifies the increment by 1?

I have designed and created a program using Python 3 that reads unread messages in my Gmail inbox under two labels.
By using tkinter I have two lovely boxes that display the total messages in each label. One for sales of one particular product and the other for another.
They use the update loop to recheck each label every few seconds.
Then after the business day, I use a cleanup script in Gmail that flushes the inboxes two labels.
The program is for use on my team's sales floor. They can see daily, the number of sales, and get a real-time readout to the success of certain marketing campaigns. It has done wonders for morale.
Now I would like to implement some sounds when sales go up. A cliche bell ring, a "chhaaaching" perhaps, you get the drift.
So, I am currently tackling with my limited knowledge and have searched all throughout StackOverflow and other sites for an answer. My guess is that I need something like the following...
"if an integer value changes on the next loop from it's previous value, by an increment of 1 play soundA, or, play soundB if that value decreases by 1."
I can't for the life of me figure out what would be the term for 'increases by 1', I am also clueless on how to attach a sound to any changes made to the integer on the proceeding loop. Help!!
If I wasn't clear enough, I am more than happy to explain and go into this further.
Thank you so much guys.
Here is my code as it stands so far...
#! /usr/bin/python3
import imaplib
import email
import tkinter as tk
WIDTH = 1000
HEIGHT = 100
def update():
mail=imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com',993)
mail.login('email#gmail.com','MyPassword')
mail.select("Submissions")
typ, messageIDs = mail.search(None, "UNSEEN")
FirstDataSetSUBS = str(messageIDs[0], encoding='utf8')
if FirstDataSetSUBS == '':
info1['text'] = 'no submissions'
else:
SecondDataSetSUBS = FirstDataSetSUBS.split(" ")
nosubs = len(SecondDataSetSUBS)
nosubs = int(nosubs)
info1['text'] = '{} submission[s]'.format(nosubs)
subs.after(1000, update)

membs.title('memberships counter')
membs.configure(background="black")
subs.title('submissions counter')
subs.configure(background="black")
x = (subs.winfo_screenwidth()//5) - (WIDTH//5)
y = (subs.winfo_screenheight()//5) - (HEIGHT//5)
subs.geometry('{}x{}+{}+{}'.format(WIDTH, HEIGHT, x, y))
info1 = tk.Label(subs, text='nothing to display', bg="black", fg="green", font="Lucida_Console 40")
info1.pack()
x = (membs.winfo_screenwidth()//2) - (WIDTH//2)

for playing audio you can use pyaudio module
in ubuntu, install by pip3 install pyaudio include sudo if required
import pygame
pygame.init()
increased=0
inc_music=pygame.mixer.music
dec_music=pygame.mixer.music
inc_music.load("/home/pratik/Documents/pos.wav")
dec_music.load("/home/pratik/Documents/neg.wav")
def get_inc():
global increased
a=increased
return a
def pl():
global inc_music
global dec_music
while True:
increased=get_inc()
if increased == 1:
inc_music.play()
increased=increased-1
elif increased == -1:
dec_music.play()
increased=increased+1
here increased is a global variable. Make sure whenever your sales is increased it is set to +1 and whenever it is decreased it is set to -1 and call pl function in a separate thread by using threading library in the background. Since, it is a forever loop it will continuosly run in background and ring the bells.
from threading import Thread
th=Thread(target=pl)
th.setDaemon(True)
th.start()
While writing the above I assumed at a moment there is either an increase or a decrease in sales, both dont occour simultaneously. If they do, use another global variable decreased which is also initialised with 0 and decreased by -1 each time decrease in sales. And return both of them from get_inc() .

Below code produces a label that gets updated randomly, and plays the sound files located in "C:\Windows\Media\" based on the change:
import tkinter as tk
import random
from playsound import playsound
def sound(is_positive=True):
if is_positive:
playsound(r"C:\Windows\Media\chimes.wav", False)
else:
playsound(r"C:\Windows\Media\chord.wav", False)
def random_update():
_old = label['text']
_new = random.randint(1, 100)
if _new > _old: # use (_new - _old) == 1 for checking
sound() # increment of 1 exclusively
elif _new < _old: # use (_new - _old) == -1 for checking
sound(False) # decrement of 1 exclusively
label['text'] = _new
label.after(2000, random_update)
if __name__ == '__main__':
root = tk.Tk()
label = tk.Label(root, text=1)
label.after(2000, random_update)
label.pack()
root.mainloop()
playsound is not a built-in package so it needs to be installed separately. You can install using:
pip install playsound
or:
python -m pip install playsound
in the command prompt on windows.

updating tkinter window (Python 3.4)

Good Afternoon all,
I've been working on a contact-book program for a school project. I've got all of the underlying code complete. However I've decided to take it one step further and implement a basic interface. I am trying to display all of the contacts using the code snippet below:
elif x==2:
phonebook_data= open(data_path,mode='r',encoding = 'utf8')
if os.stat(data_path)[6]==0:
print("Your contact book is empty.")
else:
for line in phonebook_data:
data= eval(line)
for k,v in sorted(data.items()):
x= (k + ": " + v)
from tkinter import *
root = Tk()
root.title("Contacts")
text = Text(root)
text.insert('1.0', x)
text.pack()
text.update()
root.mainloop()
phonebook_data.close()
The program works, however every contact opens in a new window. I would like to display all of the same information in a single loop. I'm fairly new to tkinter and I apologize if the code is confusing at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

First of all, the top of the snippet could be much more efficient:
phonebook_data= open(data_path,mode='r',encoding = 'utf8') should be changed to
phonebook_data = open(data_path).
Afterwards, just use:
contents = phonebook_data.read()
if contents == "": # Can be shortened to `if not contents:`
print("Your contact book is empty.")
And by the way, it's good practice to close the file as soon as you're done using it.
phonebook_data = open(data_path)
contents = phonebook_data.read()
phonebook_data.close()
if contents == "":
print("Your contact book is empty.")
Now for your graphics issue. Firstly, you should consider whether or not you really need a graphical interface for this application. If so:
# Assuming that the contact book is formatted `Name` `Number` (split by a space)
name_number = []
for line in contents.split("\n"): # Get each line
name, number = line.split()
name_number.append(name + ": " + number) # Append a string of `Name`: `Number` to the list
name_number.sort() # Sort by name
root = Tk()
root.title("Contact Book")
text = Text(root)
text.pack(fill=BOTH)
text.insert("\n".join(name_number))
root.mainloop()
Considering how much I have shown you, it would probably be considered cheating for you to use it. Do some more research into the code though, it didn't seem like the algorithm would work in the first place.
