How to pull specific information from an output in Python - python

So I have a code that gives an output, and what I need to do is pull the information out in between the commas, assign them to a variable that changes dynamically when called... here is my code:
import re
data_directory = 'Z:/Blender_Roto/'
data_file = 'diving_board.shape4ae'
fullpath = data_directory + data_file
print("====init=====")
file = open(fullpath)
for line in file:
current_line = line
# massive room for optimized code here.
# this assumes the last element of the line containing the words
# "Units Per Second" is the number we are looking for.
# this is a non float number, generally.
if current_line.find("Units Per Second") != -1:
fps = line_split = float(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Frames Per Second:", fps)
# source dimensions
if current_line.find("Source Width") != -1:
source_width = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Width:", source_width)
if current_line.find("Source Height") != -1:
source_height = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Height:", source_height)
# aspect ratios
if current_line.find("Source Pixel Aspect Ratio") != -1:
source_px_aspect = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Pixel Aspect Ratio:", source_px_aspect)
if current_line.find("Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio") != -1:
comp_aspect = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio:", comp_aspect)
# assumption, ae file can contain multiple mocha shapes.
# without knowing the exact format i will limit the script
# to deal with one mocha shape being animated N frames.
# this gathers the shape details, and frame number but does not
# include error checking yet.
if current_line.find("XSpline") != -1:
# record the frame number.
frame = re.search("\s*(\d*)\s*XSpline", current_line)
if frame.group(1) != None:
frame = frame.group(1)
print("frame:", frame)
# pick part the part of the line that deals with geometry
match = re.search("XSpline\((.+)\)\n", current_line)
line_to_strip = match.group(1)
points = re.findall('(\(.*?\))', line_to_strip)
print(len(points))
for point in points:
print(point)
print("="*40)
file.close()
This gives me the output:
====init=====
Frames Per Second: 24.0
Source Width: 2048
Source Height: 778
Source Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1
Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1
frame: 20

(0.793803,0.136326,0,0.5,0)
(0.772345,0.642332,0,0.5,0)
(0.6436,0.597615,0,0.5,0)
(0.70082,0.143387,0,0.5,0.25)
(0.70082,0.112791,0,0.5,0)
========================================
So what I need for example is to be able to assign (0.793803, 0.136326, 0, 0.5, 0) to (1x,1y,1z,1w,1s), (0.772345,0.642332,0,0.5,0) to (2x, 2y, 2z, 2w, 2s) etc so that no matter what numbers are filling those positions they will take on that value.
here is the code I need to put those numbers into:

So where I have my vector I would like to be able to place (p.x, p.y,0.z,p.w,p.s) then (p2.x,p2.y,p2.zp2.wp2.s) etc so that it can change per the number given
Any help will be great.. thank you in advance!

Instead of printing each output, you can create point objects and index them by name. For example:
>>> class Point:
... def __init__(self, t):
... (self.x,self.y,self.z,self.w,self.s) = t
...
>>> p = Point( (3,4,5,3,1) )
>>> p.w
3
You can place these point objects in an array, then access components by
myPoints[3].x
ADDENDUM
If it is important to you not to pull the points from an array, but rather use actual variable names, you can do the following, where points is your array of tuples:
(p0x,p0y,p0z,p0w,p0s) = points[0]
(p1x,p1y,p1z,p1w,p1s) = points[1]
(p2x,p2y,p2z,p2w,p2s) = points[2]
...
and so on.
Do consider whether this is an appropriate approach though. Having a point class allows you to have any number of points. With defined variable names, creating an unbounded number of these things on the fly is possible but almost always a bad idea. Here is a caveat about doing so: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2005-January/035232.html.
When you have an array of point objects you do what you want much better! For example you can do the following:
myPoints[i].y = 12
thereby changing the y-coordinate of the ith point. This is next to impossible when you have fixed the variable names. Hope that helps! (And hope I understand your clarification! Let me know if not....)

If I'm reading your code right, the relevant portion is the loop at the end that produces your tuples.
data = []
for point in points:
data.append(point)
print(point)
That will create a new list and add each tuple to the list. So, data[0] holds (0.793803,0.136326,0,0.5,0) and data[0][0] holds 0.793803.

Why is my interpolation not working properly in my function?

I have a fairly long code that processes spectra, and along the way I need an interpolation of some points. I used to have all this code written line-by-line without any functions, and it all worked properly, but now I'm converting it to two large functions so that I can call it on other models more easily in the future. Below is my code (I have more code after the last line here that plots some things, but that's not relevant to my issue, since I've tested this with a bunch of print lines and learned that my issue arises when I call the interpolation function inside my process function.
import re
import numpy as np
import scipy.interpolate
# Required files and lists
filename = 'bpass_spectra.txt' # number of columns = 4
extinctionfile = 'ExtinctionLawPoints.txt' # R_V = 4.0
datalist = []
if filename == 'bpass_spectra.txt':
filetype = 4
else:
filetype = 1
if extinctionfile == 'ExtinctionLawPoints.txt':
R_V = 4.0
else:
R_V = 1.0 #to be determined
# Constants
h = 4.1357e-15 # Planck's constant [eV s]
c = float(3e8) # speed of light [m/s]
# Inputs
beta = 2.0 # power used in extinction law
R = 1.0 # star formation rate [Msun/yr]
z = 1.0 # redshift
M_gas = 1.0 # mass of gas
M_halo = 2e41 # mass of dark matter halo
# Read spectra file
f = open(filename, 'r')
rawlines = f.readlines()
met = re.findall('Z\s=\s(\d*\.\d+)', rawlines[0])
del rawlines[0]
for i in range(len(rawlines)):
newlist = rawlines[i].split(' ')
datalist.append(newlist)
# Read extinction curve data file
rawpoints = open(extinctionfile, 'r').readlines()
def interpolate(R_V, rawpoints, Elist, i):
pointslist = []
if R_V == 4.0:
for i in range(len(rawpoints)):
newlst = re.split('(?!\S)\s(?=\S)|(?!\S)\s+(?=\S)', rawpoints[i])
pointslist.append(newlst)
pointslist = pointslist[3:]
lambdalist = [float(item[0]) for item in pointslist]
k_abslist = [float(item[4]) for item in pointslist]
xvallist = [(c*h)/(lamb*1e-6) for lamb in lambdalist]
k_interp = scipy.interpolate.interp1d(xvallist, k_abslist)
return k_interp(Elist[i])
# Processing function
def process(interpolate, filetype, datalist, beta, R, z, M_gas, M_halo, met):
speclist = []
if filetype == 4:
metallicity = float(met[0])

elif Elist[i] > 4.1357e-3: # frequencies > 10^12 Hz
klist[i] = interpolate(R_V, rawpoints, Elist, i) # interpolated function's value at Elist[i]
print "KLIST (INTERPOLATION) ELEMENTS 0 AND 1000:", klist[0], klist[1000]
return
The output from the print line is KLIST (INTERPOLATION) ELEMENTS 0 AND 1000: 52167.31734159269 52167.31734159269.
When I run my old code without functions, I print klist[0] and klist[1000] like I do here and get different values for each. In this new code, I get back two values that are the same from this line. This shouldn't be the case, so it must not be interpolating correctly inside my function (maybe it's not performing it on each point correctly in the loop?). Does anyone have any insight? It would be unreasonable to post my entire code with all the used text files here (they're very large), so I'm not expecting anyone to run it, but rather examine how I use and call my functions.
Edit: Below is the original version of my code up to the interpolation point without the functions (which works).

You are passing i as an argument to interpolate, and then also using i in a loop within interpolate. Once i is used within the for i in range(len(rawpoints)) loop in interpolate, it will be set to some value: len(rawpoints)-1. The interpolate function will then always return the same value k_interp(Elist[i]), which is equivalent to k_interp(Elist[len(rawpoints)-1]). You will need to either define a new variable within your loop (e.g. for not_i in range(len(rawpoints))), or use a different variable for the Elist argument. Consider the following change to interpolate:
def interpolate(R_V, rawpoints, Elist, j):
pointslist = []
if R_V == 4.0:
for i in range(len(rawpoints)):
newlst = re.split('(?!\S)\s(?=\S)|(?!\S)\s+(?=\S)', rawpoints[i])
pointslist.append(newlst)
pointslist = pointslist[3:]
lambdalist = [float(item[0]) for item in pointslist]
k_abslist = [float(item[4]) for item in pointslist]
xvallist = [(c*h)/(lamb*1e-6) for lamb in lambdalist]
k_interp = scipy.interpolate.interp1d(xvallist, k_abslist)
return k_interp(Elist[j])

sum( array, 1) giving 'nan' in Python

First of all i know nan stands for "not a number" but I am not sure how i am getting an invalid number in my code. What i am doing is using a python script that reads a file for a list of vectors (x,y,z) and then converts it to a long array of values, but if i don't use the file and i make a for loop that generates random numbers i don't get any 'nan's.
After this i am using Newtons law of gravity to calculate the pos of stars, F= GMm/r^2 to calculate positions and then that data gets sent through a socket server to my c# visualizing software that i developed for watching simulations. Unfortuanately my python script that does the calculating has only but been troublesome to get working.
poslist = []
plist = []
mlist = []
lineList = []
coords = []
with open("Hyades Vectors.txt", "r") as text_file:
content = text_file.readlines()
#remove /n
for i in range(len(content)):
for char in "\n":
line = content[i].replace(char,"")
lineList.append(line)
lines = array(lineList)
#split " " within each line
for i in range(len(lines)):
coords.append(lines[i].split(" "))
coords = array(coords)
#convert coords string to integer
for i in range(len(coords)):
x = np.float(coords[i,0])
y = np.float(coords[i,1])
z = np.float(coords[i,2])
poslist.append((x,y,z))
pos = array(poslist)
quite often it is sending nan's after the second time going through this loop
vcm = sum(p)/sum(m) #velocity of centre mass
p = p-m*vcm #make total initial momentum equal zero
Myr = 8.4
dt = 1
pos = pos-(p/m)*(dt/2.) #initial half-step
finished = False
while not finished: # or NBodyVis.Oppenned() == False
r = pos-pos[:,newaxis] #all pairs of star-to-star vectors
for n in range(Nstars):
r[n,n] = 1e6 #otherwise the self-forces are infinite
rmag = sqrt(sum(square(r),-1)) #star-to star scalar distances
F = G*m*m[:,newaxis]*r/rmag[:,:,newaxis]**3 # all force pairs
for n in range(Nstars):
F[n,n] = 5 # no self-forces
p = p+sum(F,1)*dt #sum(F,1) is where i get a nan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pos -= (p/m)*dt
if Time <= 0:
finished = True
else:
Time -= 1
What am i doing wrong?????? I don't fully understand nans but i can't have them if my visualizing software is to read a nan, as for then nothing will apear for visuals. I know that the error is sum(F,1) I went and printed everything through until i got a nan and that is where, but how is it getting a nan from summing. Here is what part of the text file looks like that i am reading:
51.48855 4.74229 -85.24499

Python bug that only appears on embossed image using Numpy

The intention of this program is to take a ppm image and emboss it. (The entire project details can be found here) I am helping with the grading of the assignment and cannot seem to find the student's bug.
The original image I am using looks like this:
the results should look like this:
Here is the entirety of the program (with comments around the problem lines):
# making an image embossed

if color<0:
return 0
elif color>255:
return 255

def emboss(x,y):

for i in xrange(len(x)):
for j in xrange(0,len(x[0]),3):
for k in xrange(3): #r,g,b loop

sum = 0
for l in xrange(0,3,1):
for m in xrange(0,3,1):
#the next line embosses but causes a triple image in the process
sum = sum + ((x[(i+(l-1))%h][((j+k)+((m-1)*3))%w]) * y[l][m])
#the line below adjusts an embossed images brightness

b_value = new[i][j+2]
b=int(clamp(b_value))
joe.write('%c%c%c'%(r,g,b))
gwen.close()
joe.close()
The problem appears to me to be in the emboss method but I can't seem to fix it. So I included all of it even the part that filters out ppm header comments.
As it is now, it embosses but does a triple image in doing so.
The triple image goes away when the embossing lines are removed.
here is the file I am testing with if you want to try it yourself
Any suggestions of what I should change to fix the bug?
Here's a cleaner version of the emboss function
# renamed
# x -> im (the input image numpy array)
# y -> kernel (the emboss kernel)
# i -> y (the y coordinate)
# j -> x (the x coordinate)
# d -> output (the output numpy array)
# k -> color (the number of the color channel 0-2)
# sum -> sum_ (sum is a built-in, so we shouldn't use that name)
def emboss(im,kernel):
output=numpy.empty((h,w*3),numpy.uint8)
print "len im[0]=",len(im[0])
print "len kernel=", len(kernel)
print "len kernel[0]=", len(kernel[0])
for y in xrange(len(im)):
for x in xrange(0,len(im[0]),3):
for color in xrange(3): #r,g,b loop
#if the next line is used a correct (but not embosed) image results
#output[y][x+color] = im[y][x+color]
sum_ = 0
for l in xrange(0,3,1):
for m in xrange(0,3,1):
#the next line embosses but causes a triple image in the process
sum_ += (im[(y+(l-1))%h][((x+color)+((m-1)*3))%w]) * kernel[l][m]
#the line below adjusts an embossed images brightness
#if not embossing comment out this line
output[y][x+color]=clamp(sum_+127)
return output
The bug seems to be on this line
sum_ += (im[(y+(l-1))%h][((x+color)+((m-1)*3))%w]) * kernel[l][m]
Where the x-coord is moded by w (the image width in pixels). The x-coord varies from 0-1920 (due to the 3 channel colours) whereas the image width is only 640px. moding by (w*3) should correct the problem.
Here is the fix for the original code:
sum = sum + ((x[(i+(l-1))%h][((j+k)+((m-1)*3))%(w*3)]) * y[l][m])
The code need many improvements, but for the bug:
sum = sum + ((x[(i+(l-1))%h][((j+k)+((m-1)*3))%(w*3)]) * y[l][m]) # %(w*3)

Quickly counting particles in grid

I've written some python code to calculate a certain quantity from a cosmological simulation. It does this by checking whether a particle in contained within a box of size 8,000^3, starting at the origin and advancing the box when all particles contained within it are found. As I am counting ~2 million particles altogether, and the total size of the simulation volume is 150,000^3, this is taking a long time.
I'll post my code below, does anybody have any suggestions on how to improve it?
Thanks in advance.
from __future__ import division
import numpy as np
def check_range(pos, i, j, k):
a = 0
if i <= pos[2] < i+8000:
if j <= pos[3] < j+8000:
if k <= pos[4] < k+8000:
a = 1
return a
def sigma8(data):
N = []
to_do = data
print 'Counting number of particles per cell...'
for k in range(0,150001,8000):
for j in range(0,150001,8000):
for i in range(0,150001,8000):
temp = []
n = []
for count in range(len(to_do)):
n.append(check_range(to_do[count],i,j,k))
to_do[count][1] = n[count]
if to_do[count][1] == 0:
temp.append(to_do[count])
#Only particles that have not been found are
# searched for again
to_do = temp
N.append(sum(n))
print 'Next row'
print 'Next slice, %i still to find' % len(to_do)
print 'Calculating sigma8...'
if not sum(N) == len(data):
return 'Error!\nN measured = {0}, total N = {1}'.format(sum(N), len(data))
else:
return 'sigma8 = %.4f, variance = %.4f, mean = %.4f' % (np.sqrt(sum((N-np.mean(N))**2)/len(N))/np.mean(N), np.var(N),np.mean(N))
I'll try to post some code, but my general idea is the following: create a Particle class that knows about the box that it lives in, which is calculated in the __init__. Each box should have a unique name, which might be the coordinate of the bottom left corner (or whatever you use to locate your boxes).
Get a new instance of the Particle class for each particle, then use a Counter (from the collections module).
Particle class looks something like:
# static consts - outside so that every instance of Particle doesn't take them along
# for the ride...
MAX_X = 150,000
X_STEP = 8000
# etc.
class Particle(object):
def __init__(self, data):
self.x = data[xvalue]
self.y = data[yvalue]
self.z = data[zvalue]
self.compute_box_label()
def compute_box_label(self):
import math
x_label = math.floor(self.x / X_STEP)
y_label = math.floor(self.y / Y_STEP)
z_label = math.floor(self.z / Z_STEP)
self.box_label = str(x_label) + '-' + str(y_label) + '-' + str(z_label)
Anyway, I imagine your sigma8 function might look like:
def sigma8(data):
import collections as col
particles = [Particle(x) for x in data]
boxes = col.Counter([x.box_label for x in particles])
counts = boxes.most_common()
#some other stuff
counts will be a list of tuples which map a box label to the number of particles in that box. (Here we're treating particles as indistinguishable.)
Using list comprehensions is much faster than using loops---I think the reason is that you're basically relying more on the underlying C, but I'm not the person to ask. Counter is (supposedly) highly-optimized as well.
Note: None of this code has been tested, so you shouldn't try the cut-and-paste-and-hope-it-works method here.

Controlling my output

Here is the code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import json
import sys
import os
import parser
sys.path.append('Z:\_protomotion\Prog\HelperScripts')
import GetDir
sys.path.append('Z:/Blender_Roto')
filename = 'diving_board.shape4ae'
infile = 'Z:/Blender_Roto/'
#import bpy

z_depth = 0
frame = 20
import re
data_directory = 'Z:/Blender_Roto/' # windows
data_file = 'diving_board.shape4ae'
fullpath = data_directory + data_file
print("====init=====")
file = open(fullpath)
for line in file:
current_line = line
# massive room for optimized code here.
# this assumes the last element of the line containing the words
# "Units Per Second" is the number we are looking for.
# this is a non float number, generally.
if current_line.find("Units Per Second") != -1:
fps = line_split = float(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Frames Per Second:", fps)
# source dimensions
if current_line.find("Source Width") != -1:
source_width = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Width:", source_width)
if current_line.find("Source Height") != -1:
source_height = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Height:", source_height)
# aspect ratios
if current_line.find("Source Pixel Aspect Ratio") != -1:
source_px_aspect = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Source Pixel Aspect Ratio:", source_px_aspect)
if current_line.find("Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio") != -1:
comp_aspect = line_split = int(current_line.split()[-1])
print("Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio:", comp_aspect)
# assumption, ae file can contain multiple mocha shapes.
# without knowing the exact format i will limit the script
# to deal with one mocha shape being animated N frames.
# this gathers the shape details, and frame number but does not
# include error checking yet.
if current_line.find("XSpline") != -1:
# record the frame number.
print(len(points))
frame = re.search("\s*(\d*)\s*XSpline", current_line)
if frame.group(1) != None:
frame = frame.group(1)
print("frame:", frame)
# pick part the part of the line that deals with geometry
match = re.search("XSpline\((.+)\)\n", current_line)
line_to_strip = match.group(1)
points = re.findall('(\(.*?\))', line_to_strip)
(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5) = points
print (p1)
#print (p2)
#print (p3)
#print (p4)
#print (p5)
file.close()
Here is my output:
====init=====
Frames Per Second: 24.0
Source Width: 2048
Source Height: 778
Source Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1
Comp Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1
5
frame: 20
(0.793803,0.136326,0,0.5,0)
from this output I want to be able to assign (0.793803) to the variable 'point1x' (0.136326) to the variable point1y (0) to the variable point1z (0.5) to the variable point1w and (0) to the variable point1s.
So instead of just outputting (0.793803,0.136326,0,0.5,0) I want it to give me the values individually
so:
point1x: 0.793803
point1y: 0.136326
point1z: 0
point1w: 0.5
point1s: 0
Anyone know how I can do this?
That looks like a tuple, in which case, the python statement for what you want is:
point1x, point1y, point1z, point1w = (0.793803,0.136326,0,0.5,0)
Once you have points, if you know it will always be a comma-seperated list of decimal numbers, simply do something like this:
points = points.split(",")
# points = ["0.793803","0.136326","0","0.5","0"]
# Now you can use John Gaines suggestion
# to unpack your variables
point1x, point1y, point1z, point1w = points
If you don't know how many points there will be to unpack for any given entry, but you know the max, simply check points length after you split and add the appropriate number of None entries to the list:
# Somewhere earlier
max_entries = 5
# ... snip ...
# points = ["0.793803","0.136326","0"]
cur_len = len(points)
if cur_len > max_entries:
raise ValueError("%d points discovered in %s. Max entries is %d" % (cur_len, points, max_entries)
if cur_len != max_entries:
points += [None] * (max_entries - cur_len)
# Continue from here
