[Ilugc] Tamil auto txt2unicode converter
Dear All, I have written txt2unicode [1] converter which will convert any type of encode to unicode. At the moment it will convert only Tamil encodes. Supported encodes are 1. anjal, 2. bamini, 3. boomi, 4. dinakaran, 5.dinamani, 6.dinathanthy, 7.kavipriya, 8.murasoli, 9.mylai, 10.nakkeeran, 11.roman, 12.tab, 13.tam 14.tscii Also I have written auto2unicode function which will find input text's encode automatically and convert to unicode. It can find 11 encodes out of 14 above encodes. I took tscii sample input from [2] and tested out. auto2unicode function able to find tscii encode and convert to unicode successfully. I need remaining 13 encodes sample text to test it. If anybody have these Tamil encoded sample text files, please send me offline or share here any link to get sample for the same. Suggestions are welcome.

Re: [Ilugc] Can we access the SWAP SPACE in Python
Hai, 2011/10/7 Raja Subramanian rajasuper...@gmail.com Is there any way to store some data in SWAP (but not in RAM) and get the data from the SWAP partition whenever we need it in Python or C language ? yup. It may be slower to access the swap area rather than RAM, but it is much faster than access the data of files which are stored in the hard disk. Use mmap to map a file directly into your processes address space. When you reference the memory address, the kernel will read/write data from the file using the same mechanisms it uses to swap. You will bypass all file IO buffering and have direct access to the files. This is how all DB engines handle IO. mmap() vs read() will give you a 3 x speedup for IO bound jobs. Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment by Stevens has a good example of file copy implemented using mmap. I couldnt use mmap( ) function in my case, since I am accessing the binary file like NetCDF, PP, HDF, Grads which contains data in formats of numpy.float32, numpy.float64 and some meta data also. These files cant read it as like normal text file object such as fileobj.readlines( ). i.e. These files are not string type. So I cant use mmap( ) in this case. Mechanisms to speed up scientific code: 1. Make fewer passes over your data. Ideally you want to read the data once, complete all processing and never have to read it again. Do not make several passes over data doing a little processing each time. 2. Use efficient IO like mmap. 3. Use the correct algorithms suitable for your data size and work. 4. Profile your code to understand which step takes the most time. Then start fine tuning. 5. Run a 64bit OS, you'll sometimes need to use more RAM if you want faster performance. It's a trade-off. 6. Code the hot spots in C if you need more speed. Thanks for above suggestions. I will use all the above in my project. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Project Associate Centre for Atmospheric Sciences Indian Institute of Technology Delhi My Experiments In Gnu/Linux ! : http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! : http://kanchilug.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] Can we access the SWAP SPACE in Python
Hai, 2011/10/7 Bharathi Subramanian bharathi.l...@gmail.com yup. It may be slower to access the swap area rather than RAM, but it is much faster than access the data of files which are stored in the hard disk. Swap is in HDD. So much improvement. You can try the mmap option suggested by Raja. But you need to manage the data handling. Another option, Create RamFS, load data files into it. So that you can access it as if from HDD file and get the maximum speed. Remember, RamFS eat a fixed amount the RAM and handle the data persistence. RamFS is really awesome. Thanks for your suggestion. It should help me a lot. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Project Associate Centre for Atmospheric Sciences Indian Institute of Technology Delhi My Experiments In Gnu/Linux ! : http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! : http://kanchilug.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

You initially said you wanted to store in swap instead of RAM. Now you want to store in swap(which is essentially a 2nd class RAM) instead of files in file-system. Do you mean to say you don't want in RAM because you don't want to use precious RAM space but want to use swap as it is faster than accessing other files? Yes. Correctly... I hope RamFS, TmpFS should help me to handle this problem. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Project Associate Centre for Atmospheric Sciences Indian Institute of Technology Delhi My Experiments In Gnu/Linux ! : http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! : http://kanchilug.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Re: [Ilugc] creating a FOSS alternate for Teamviewer
Dear All, 2010/12/17 Shrinivasan T tshriniva...@gmail.com Friends, Is it possible for us to create a FOSS alternate for Teamviewer? Shall we start working on this? Yesterday I have attended the FOSS meetup in Delhi. In that many people presented/discussed about some good things. One student (Anuvrat - cced in this thread) presented his college 3rd year project and demonstrated. The project is Desktop sharing to remote machine(s) over the LAN/WAN . He almost completed that project by using g++ , Qt and some more stuff. He hosted his code and documents here https://github.com/bhanuvrat I think, he has finished the ground work for creating alternate of TeamViewer. If we people guiding him and working together means, surely we can achieve our goal soon. I told him about ilugc mailing list and discussion over the alternate for teamviewer. He is willing to do this project.

[Ilugc] Need Help : Setting Floating Precision Point as 2 in Python
Dear All, I need one help. In python, I need to set the floating point precision as 2. I am getting the following output in python while adding two float nos. a=79.73 b=0.5 a+b 80.234 I need exactly 2 precision point in this float value. i.e. 80.23 Even though I tried in round method, its not satisfied me. Because a = round(3.7138464897123424324355124355,2) a 3.71 a = round(3.7238464897123424324355124355,2) a 3.7202 Can you understand the difference. Depends upon the value, it will round. I no need ceil and floor options. Because it may change the original values. I need just 2 precision point in the float value. I am getting two numbers dynamically. So I can not say exactly, what kind of floating numbers I am going to use. What I have to do ? Any suggestions ?

The number 80.23 cannot be represented exactly. Use the decimal module if you want exact numbers: http://docs.python.org/library/decimal.html. For more information look at the Python Docs on floating point: http://docs.python.org/tutorial/floatingpoint.html. As you'll see there, Python 3.1 will print the result in the way you want, but if you want more accurate arithmetic, multiply all your numbers by 100 and use integers instead or use the decimal module. Yes, we can do this multiply by 100 way. By this way I can handle 80 and 23 as two separate integers. But when I want make it as float 80+0.23 80.234 again it will be come same floating value. so I cant use this way. -- Roshan George ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Then when the time comes to print your number you can just do something like: a = str(8000+23) b = a[:-2] + '.' + a[-2:] Thanks a lot. I forget to mention here. I dont want the result float value in string. I need only the float values with 2 precision. That to without rounding the result. Any idea? Your output will be the nice 80.23 that you always wanted.

Re: [Ilugc] Need Help : Setting Floating Precision Point as 2 in Python
2010/8/24 Chandrashekar Babu l...@chandrashekar.info
Hi Arulalan,
In python, I need to set the floating point precision as 2.
I am getting the following output in python while adding two float nos.
a=79.73
b=0.5
a+b
80.234
I need exactly 2 precision point in this float value. i.e. 80.23
You might want to convert them to Decimal type. Look up the
following URL (Python documentation) for more information:
http://docs.python.org/library/decimal.html
from decimal import *
getcontext().prec = 3
getcontext().rounding = ROUND_UP
Decimal('3.1415926535') + Decimal('2.7182818285')
Decimal('5.86')
or
getcontext().prec = 3
getcontext().rounding = ROUND_DOWN
Decimal('3.1415926535') + Decimal('2.7182818285')
Decimal('5.85')
This gives the what I need.
But I can not use this Decimal data type.
I am doing project for Indian Meteorological Department using CDAT python
library.
Now I am plotting weather symbol markers on India Map at corresponding
latitude and longitude (in float) dynamically.
Due to inaccuracy floating value of latitude logitude,
the position of markers are moved away from the exact position of the
stations on the map in vcs.
so I need float value in 2 precision without changing the value. Not in
string. Not in Decimal.
In CDAT vcs module supports only the 'float data' type to represent the
latitude logitude in map.
Any suggestions?
If all you want to do is print the value upto 2 decimal points, then
a print with format specifier should do the trick. The following URL
(Stack Overflow) has this question answered:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/455612/python-limiting-floats-to-two-decimal-points

Chandrashekar.

[Ilugc] [OT][Announcement] web3.0 mailing list
Dear All, Greetings .!. Do you have awareness about web3.0 ? The Semantic Web is a web of data. There is lots of data we all use every day, and it is not part of the web. I can see my bank statements on the web, and my photographs, and I can see my appointments in a calendar. But can I see my photos in a calendar to see what I was doing when I took them? Can I see bank statement lines in a calendar? Why not? Because we don't have a web of data. Because data is controlled by applications, and each application keeps it to itself. Humans are capable of using the Web to carry out tasks such as finding the Irish word for directory, reserving a library book, and searching for a low price for a DVD. However, one computer cannot accomplish all of these tasks without human direction, because web pages are designed to be read by people, not machines. The semantic web is a vision of information that is understandable by computers, so computers can perform more of the tedious work involved in finding, combining, and acting upon information on the web. We are going to make web3.0 with the basics of semantic web. Let us discuss about web3.0 in this mailing list. Welcomes you to real data understandable by computer as data not as text ! - To join in the web3 mailing list, subscribe here http://www.freelists.org/list/web3 What is the Semantic Web? Where Web 2.0 is focused on people, the Semantic Web is focused on machines. The Web requires a human operator, using computer systems to perform the tasks required to find, search and aggregate its information. It's impossible for a computer to do these tasks without human guidance because Web pages are specifically designed for human readers. The Semantic Web is a project that aims to change that by presenting Web page data in such a way that it is understood by computers, enabling machines to do the searching, aggregating and combining of the Web's information — without a human operator. :-) More info about semantic web : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/ http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2007/Semantic_Web.asp Thank you. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

But gnokii can send multi msg as our normal mobile. :-) PS : While write script to send sms to multi numbers using gnokii, you need to set some time delay. say for eg 3 to 4 seconds delay. otherwise it collapse by sending and receiving msgs at the same time.

[Ilugc] [FYI] Gujarat to introduce Linux in schools
Good news below. From ToI Ahmedabad Edition 11/07/2010 Page 7 Gujarat to introduce Linux in schools Rajiv Shah | TNN Gandhinagar: The Gujarat government is all set to follow Kerala’s Marxist-led Left-Democratic Front (LDF) government in IT education in schools. Following Kerala schools, it has decided to use only Linux operating system, the opensource free software, in the computers installed in 3,650 schools. Linux will also be installed in another state-run 2,750 schools, where computers will be installed this year. Freely downloadable, Linux is internationally regarded as alternative to Microsoft Windows. “If the experiment in schools is successful, we will go ahead and do it for computers in Sachivalaya, too,” a top IT aide to chief minister Narendra Modi said, adding, “Installation of Microsoft Windows software on each computer costs Rs 5,000. With Linux, we will save huge sums.” Though there was initial resistance to it in Gujarat’s top powerdom, the big cost of maintaining massive Windows-based infrastructure became the main reason for abandoning Windows solutions and moving to Linux applications. It is estimated that the state government will be saving close to Rs 100 crore by installing Linux in schools. Call it anti-MNC Marxist bias, but in Kerala schools even mandatory IT tests are held in Linux. Before opting for Linux, the state education department officials are learnt to have held tough negotiations for installing Microsoft Windows operating system. On an average, each school has 11 computers and one LCD screen to give computer training to children. “If it the Microsoft Windows costs Rs 5,000 in market, negotiations helped us to bring down the price to Rs 3,000 per computers. But after intense discussions involving IT experts, it was decided to do away with Microsoft Windows and go for Linux,” the Modi aide said. State education secretary Hasmukh Adhia told TOI that computer teachers in government schools are still not fully accustomed to Linux, but the state government has begun training them in batches. The National Institute for Information Technology (NIIT) and Educamp are carrying out training in phases. “It does not require more than two days to teach computer teachers how to use Linux, as it is easy to download and work on computers,” Adhia said. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
[Ilugc] [FYI] FOSS School in Delhi
Dear Friends, Mr.Parin Sharma conducted FOSS workshop in school at Delhi. Is there any school running under FOSS in Chennai or Tamil Nadu? Shall we try to promote FOSS in chennai schools ? The following mail content is sent by Parin Sharma to iitdlug regarding his experience on workshop in his school. -- Forwarded message -- From: Parin Sharma parin.sha...@gmail.com Date: 2010/7/9 Subject: [...@iitd:8406] Back to my Alma mate with FOSS!! To: iitd...@googlegroups.com, poster...@lug-iitd.posterous.com Recently on 30th June 2010, I got an opportunity to give back something to my school, my Alma mate with FOSS !! Below is a small story how things started and went I had this thing in my mind for quite some time, schools are the places where we are taught basic morals, etiquette, sharing things, knowledge and other good things but unfortunately most of the Schools in India teach Proprietary software like MS Windows, Office and other Adobe stuff like Flash etc. so was the case with my school, DAV CPS[1], Paschim Enclave, New Delhi. So I talked to Anand Wardhan sir, one of the best teachers, I have met in my life!! Although, he is an Economics teacher but still he understood my point when I told him about FOSS Stuff and he immediately agreed for a workshop in School. So it was 30th June, the day I was eagerly waiting for but was a bit nervous too because it was for teachers!! OMG, now I had to present something to teachers to who taught me some years back but I knew it will be good!! So it was 11:45, and I started, first telling about FOSS history and then its advantages, then SchoolOS[2] but since I had just 1hr or so, I had to quickly jump to the Demo Educational FOSSI started with Maths S/w like Kig then showed Chemistry tools and I tried to show almost every subject related FOSS but as always I fell short of time and had to wind up my presentation showing FET and Dia Diagram Editor, but as a start, it was enough, the teachers were all smiling, blessing me!! It was a wonderful experience many teacher in particular my chem teacher asked me to install BKChem and other chem S/w asap because she found them really helpful! Overall it was awesome but this is not it, I want things to get implemented asap, want students and teachers to use FOSS!! Looking forward to it...All I wanna tell everyone reading this, seriously its a beautiful experience doing something for your school, your people!! Try it this summer go back to your previous schools and tell them about Freedom that you get when you use FOSS, so that the next gen coming can live in a pure Free World!

Re: [Ilugc] Promotion of FOSS
2010/6/11 chidambaresan sakthi chidambasak...@gmail.com Dear Luggies, Dear Sakthi, I am belongs to Kovilpatti,a part of tuticorin district.here no such awareness on FOSS and even the usage of computers to many peoples.To eradicate such issues and increase the e-literate peoples in our area,we start working with a foundation called Sakthi FOSS Foundation.Our Working plan to promote Computer Knowledge and FOSS among School Students,if we cultivate in earlier buddies means they grown up with that passion,thats what we think.please support us and give suggestion to improve the activities.keep visit us at www.sakthifossfoundation.blogspot.com and join with us in mailing list http://groups.google.co.in/group/* sakthifossfoundation*http://groups.google.co.in/group/sakthifossfoundation?hl=en . Great start. My wishes. My suggestion is , why cant you start the Kovilpatti FOSS Club or Kovilpatti Linux User Group instead of Sakthi FOSS Foundation. Because Kovilpatti is public to all, the name is not for an individual. But Sakthi is not to public. The name is for an individual person, not to public. FOSS is for public, not for an individual only. If you will start Kovilpatti FOSS Club or Kovilpatti Linux User Group , then students/public will join with you to promote FOSS in kovilpatti. You give admin or writter permission to your city foss club bog . So that, in future kovilpatti students will maintain / update the blog. Think about it. or may we know, do you have any special reason for created www.sakthifossfoundation.blogspot.com instead of www.kovilpattifossclub.blogspot.com , etc., This is my openion. Discuss with your city students/people and then confirm the name. We will support to promote the FOSS in your city. Let us rock! :-) -- Regards...

Nice name. But common people may, sakthi foss foundation is name of some individual person think like me. If you want this name as blog, the put some quotes on blog like power of FOSS. Form a team. ( Already you have team). Now form a students team. Go to some college and conduct LDD. Then surely you will get few students as volunteers.

HP Plotter Model is HpDesignJet500ps. [4] [5] I connected the ubuntu machine and windows machine via local network. The plotter is shared from windows to local network. I installed samba and cups in ubuntu. So that i can found the network printer via windows samba. If i give the print from ubuntu, it says printing process is sent and completed the job successfully. But the plotter does not printing the image. i.e the windows machine does not forward the printing job to HpPlotter . I stopped all firewalls in windows machine. How to approach this issue.

Hi to all, Here i documented [1] on how to edit and correct world map in cdat . cdat- climate data analysis tool [2]. we are doing project on Contour analysis and Visualization [3]. While doing contour and isolines plotting on India map in cdat , my guide Mr.Thyagarajan Shanmugham and myself felt that our Indian Political Map wrongly depicted in CDAT as shown in the blog.

[Ilugc] need help : how to find whether the particular packages installed or not via terminal command
Hi friends, i have one doubt. how can we find , whether one package is installed in our system or not via terminal. in synaptic , we can see the color difference between installed packages and non-installed packages. like wise , how can we find the difference b/w installed and non-installed package using command ? In terminal , [for eg] $ apt-cache search tuxpaint It will give the package details about tuxpaint $ apt-get install tuxpaint It will give result , if installed , - the package tuxpaint is already installed and newest version. if not installed - the package size is 29MB. ... bla bla bla bbblllabba . ... Need to get 28.9MB of archives. After this operation, 49.6MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? so my question is , the alternate command to find out the particular package is installed or not , via terminal . i searched in net , but cant get clearly . any one can suggest me . thanks in advance ! -- -- நன்றி , அருளாளன் . த Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxworld.wordpress.com தக்கன தழைக்கும் ! ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] need help : how to find whether the particular packages installed or not via terminal command
dpkg -l | grep pkg name ? simple and nice command . it gives detailed about only installed packages. for non-installed package , it will return nothing.

[Ilugc] Solution : How can we update the package lists install packages in newly installed [ubuntu os] system without Internet and Repository DVDs
problem : My friends having system which is installed ubuntu 9.10 . But they dont have Internet connection to update package lists and can't install any applications. But I am having Internet connection and I installed many essential packages in my system. How can we transfer the archives (i.e. deb files ) and as well as packages lists ( i.e. Index list in Synaptic Package Manager ) to newly installed system , os as ubuntu ? Solution : -- Myself and my brother Pasupathy were tried to solve this problem and finally we achieved too. Just do the following simple steps . 1) Install ubuntu in one system say system A and update the system via Internet . Now the index list of synaptic package manager having 28,878 files [ in ubuntu 9.10 ]. 2) Install the essential applications and softwares. for eg : ubuntu-restricted-extras , vlc , mplayer , compizconfig-settings-manager , etc., Take Backup : part 1 --- 3) copy the package lists and its information to show in synaptic , from the updated system by the following command $ sudo cp -r /var/lib/apt/lists /home/[user name]/backup/ 4) copy the package lists in binary format $ sudo cp /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin /home/[user name]/backup/ $ sudo cp /var/cache/apt/srcpkgcache.bin /home/[user name]/backup/ 5) Now we are going to backup the archives directory. It contains .deb files. While installing any application from net , the downloading files are storing in this directory only (as .deb) $ sudo cp -r /var/cache/apt/archives /home/[user name]/backup/ Copy this backup folder into Pen drive. Thats all ! we backuped all our resource from the system which is updated via Internet also installed many applications. part 2: Make update -- Update Install the applications in freshly installed [ubuntu] system ( sys system B ) without Internet and Repository Dvds. Open synaptic package manager and note the no of index package lists . ( approximately 1300) Plug the pen drive into this system and copy the backup direcory into that home directory. Now $ cd backup $ ls archives lists pkgcache.bin srcpkgcache.bin $ sudo cp -r lists /var/lib/apt/ $ sudo cp pkgcache.bin /var/cache/apt/ $ sudo cp srcpkgcache.bin /var/cache/apt/ $ sudo cp -r archives /var/cache/apt/ -- Thats all. Now go and open the synaptic package manager . Wow ! Oops ! Now the no of packages lists in that is 28,878 . Now u can install , whatever u backuped installed applications from the system A , system B also can install those packages without download from the internet or repository Dvds . Now try to install ubuntu-restricted-extras , vlc , mplayer , compizconfig-settings-manager . With 1 min , it should be installed. The only , we can not install the application beyond the backuped source from system A without Internet .thing I hope , this may helps to ubuntu admin . Now in kanchilug , we are installing the packages in various systems by this way only . It works well ! -- நன்றி , அருளாளன் . த Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxworld.wordpress.com தக்கன தழைக்கும் ! ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
