Hi everybody,
I'm trying to run contour_demo.pp example but I'm having this error.  
Anybody can help?

[Matplotlib-users] error in simple plot command

2006-12-14 Thread Brian Blais
Hello,

If I do the following:

plot([1],[1],'o')

it plots the one dot correctly.

if, however, one of those numbers is zero:


plot([1],[0],'o')

I get a floating point/divide by zero error:


/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/ticker.py in scale_range(vmin, 
vmax, n, 
threshold)
 731 dv = abs(vmax - vmin)
 732 meanv = 0.5*(vmax+vmin)
-- 733 var = dv/max(abs(vmin), abs(vmax))
 734 if var  1e-12:
 735 return 1.0, 0.0

ZeroDivisionError: float division


Is there a fix for this?

You need to update your mpl to the current release or svn.  This was 
fixed quite a few months ago, but I don't remember exactly when.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Some remarks/questions about perceived slowness of matplotlib

2006-12-14 Thread Eric Firing
David,

I have made some changes in svn that address all but one of the points 
you made:

[]
 if self.clip:
mask = ma.getmaskorNone(val)
if mask == None:
val = ma.array(clip(val.filled(vmax), vmin, vmax))
else:
val = ma.array(clip(val.filled(vmax), vmin, vmax),
mask=mask)

The real problem here is that I should not have been using 
getmaskorNone().  In numpy.ma, we need nomask, not None, so we want an 
ordinary getmask() call.  ma.array(, mask=ma.nomask) is very fast, 
so the problem goes away.

 
 Actually, the problem is in ma.array: with a value of mask to None, it 
 should not make a difference between mask = None or no mask arg, right ? 
But it does, because for numpy it needs to be nomask; it does something 
with None, but whatever it is, it is very slow.

 I didn't change ma.array to keep my change as local as possible. To 
 change only this operation as above gives a speed up from 1.8 s to ~ 1.0 
 s for to_rgba, which means calling show goes from ~ 2.2 s to ~1.4 s. I 
 also changed  
 result = (val-vmin)/float(vmax-vmin)
 
 to
 
 invcache= 1.0 / (vmax - vmin)
 result = (val-vmin) * invcache

This is the one I did not address.  I don't understand how this could be 
making much difference, and some testing using ipython and %prun with 
1-line operations showed little difference with variations on this 
theme.  The fastest would appear to be (and logically should be, I 
think) result = (val-vmin)*(1.0/(vmax-vmin)), but I don't think it makes 
much difference--it looks to me like maybe 10-20 msec, not 100, on my 
Pentium M 1.6 Ghz.  Maybe still worthwhile, so I may yet make the change 
after more careful testing.


 
 which gives a moderate speed up (around 100 ms for a 8000x256 points 
 array). Once you make both those changes, the clip call is by far the 
 most expensive operation in normalize functor, but the functor is not 
 really expensive anymore compared to the rest, so this is not where I 
 looked at.
 
 For the where calls in Colormap functor, I was wondering if they are 
 necessary in all cases: some of those calls seem redundant, and it may 
 be possible to detect that before calling them. This should be both 
 easier and faster, at least in this case, than having a fast where ?
 

You hit the nail squarely: where() is the wrong function to use, and I 
have eliminated it from colors.py.  The much faster replacement is 
putmask, which does as well as direct indexing with a Boolean but works 
with all three numerical packages.  I think that using the fast putmask 
is better than trying to figure out special cases in which there would 
be nothing to put, although I could be convinced otherwise.


 I understand that support of multiple array backend, support of mask 
 arrays have cost consequences. But it looks like it may be possible to 
 speed things up for cases where an array has only meaningful values/no 
 mask.

The big gains here were essentially bug fixes--picking the appropriate 
function (getmask versus getmaskorNone and putmask versus where).

Re: [Matplotlib-users] error bars, plot_date, and connected line

2006-12-14 Thread Simson Garfinkel
I've been able to figure out how to easily do error bars on a plot_date.

Here is how I do it:

The variables coming in are dates which is an array of my dates (in  
days since 0001-01-01), averages, p10 (which is the bottom of my  
error bars), and p90 (which is the top of my error bars)

 plot_date(dates, averages, 'bo')

 # Draw the tops of the error bars
 ax.vlines(dates,averages,p90)
 ax.hlines(p90,dates-.25,dates+.25)

 # Draw the bottom part of the error bars
 ax.vlines(dates,averages,p10)
 ax.hlines(p10,dates-.25,dates+.25)

It's pretty sweet.

I'm having other problems which I will post separately, but this is  
working well.

 Hi. I'm interested in creating a date plot showing bandwidth along a

 average bandwidth and use the error bars to show the 25th and 75th
 percentiles. I've been trying to figure out how to do this and am
 having problems.

 My 2c:
 Don't bother yet about dates: first get the plot as you want it,  
 assuming that
 your x data are floats (use date2num if needed). Then you can  
 tackle the
 problem of displaying dates.

 If you poke around the sources (axes.py). you'll find that  
 'plot_date' is only
 'plot', where a couple of extra parameters are set:
 if xdate:
self.xaxis_date(tz)
 'xdate' is a flag indicating whether the data on the x axis are  
 dates (True)
 or not (False), 'tz' is the timezone flag (default to None), and  
 'self' is
 your current axes object (you can get its handle by gca() if you  
 haven't
 specified it otherwise).

 Combining these pieces of information should to the trick (or most  
 of it).
 Let us know how it goes anyway.

[Matplotlib-users] dateformatter doesn't

2006-12-14 Thread Simson Garfinkel
Greetings. I've been having lots of luck with my date plots.  But  
I've been having a problem getting the dateformatter to work. I'm  
using the code below. The dates keep getting formatted with the  
default, Sep 28 2006 instead of what I want, Sep 28

Any thoughts?

from datetime import date,timedelta
from matplotlib.dates import MonthLocator, WeekdayLocator,  
DateFormatter,MONDAY,SATURDAY
from pylab import *


def dateplot():
 dates = drange(date(2006,10,1),date(2006,12,1),timedelta(days=1))
 vals  = 500*(randn(len(dates))+2)

 figure(num=1, figsize=(6.5,4))
 axes([.15,.3,.8,.5])

 ax = gca()  # get the current graphics  
region

 title(rAverage daily bandwidth)

 ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(DateFormatter('%b %d'))

 ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(FormatStrFormatter('%3.0f KBps'))

 plot_date(dates, vals, 'bo')

 # Rotate the labels

 labels = ax.get_xticklabels()
 setp(labels,'rotation',90,fontsize=8)
 grid(True)
 savefig(x.pdf,format='pdf')

Re: [Matplotlib-users] contour_demo.py

2006-12-14 Thread Eric Firing
I don't recognize the error output at all, but it looks like you have an 
old version.  The current release is 0.87.7.  I don't know of any 
released version in which contour_demo.py did not run at all, though.

The X errors make me wonder whether you are trying to run from inside an 
IDE.

My suggestion would be to delete the installation you have, do a fresh 
install of the current version, and then try running demos on the 
command line, making sure the demos are from the newly installed version.

If you still have a problem, tell us what version you are running, how 
it was installed, and on what kind of system.

 Set the axis grid on or off; b is a boolean use which =
 'major' | 'minor' to set the grid for major or minor ticks

 if b is None and len(kwargs)==0, toggle the grid state.  If
 kwargs are supplied, it is assumed you want the grid on and b
 will be set to True

 kwargs are used to set the line properties of the grids, eg,

   xax.grid(color='r', linestyle='-', linewidth=2)
