[Numpy-discussion] compile process of numpy-1.5.0 fails in Itanium cluster with icc

2010-09-21 Thread Miguel Pan Fidalgo
hi,

I'm trying to install numpy-1.5.0 in our Itanium (IA-64) supercomputer 
[http://www.cesga.es/content/view/917/115/lang,en/ ].

This is my site.cfg (I have to install umfpack but I think this is not the 
problem): 

$ cat site.cfg
[DEFAULT]
library_dirs = 
/opt/cesga/fftw-3.2.2/lib:/opt/cesga/intel/intel11.0/Compiler/11.1/056/mkl/lib/64
  
include_dirs = 
/opt/cesga/fftw-3.2.2/include:/opt/cesga/intel/intel11.0/Compiler/11.1/056/mkl/include
 

#[umfpack]
#umfpack_libs = umfpack

[fftw]
libraries = fftw3

[mkl]
library_dirs = /opt/cesga/intel/intel11.0/Compiler/11.1/056/mkl/lib/64  
lapack_libs = mkl_lapack
mkl_libs = mkl_core

The only hacks that I made: 

$ diff numpy/distutils/system_info.py  ../numpy-
scipy/numpy-1.5.0/numpy/distutils/system_info.py
818c818
 _lib_mkl = ['mkl','mkl_lapack','guide']
---
 _lib_mkl = ['mkl','vml','guide']

$ diff numpy/distutils/intelccompiler.py  ../numpy-
scipy/numpy-1.5.0/numpy/distutils/intelccompiler.py
11c11
 cc_exe = 'icc -O3 -openmp -lpthread -fPIC'
---
 cc_exe = 'icc'

 
And I have used this script to launch the compilation process: 

$ cat compilar.sh 
#!/bin/bash

module load nose/0.10.4 fftw/3.2.2 ifort/11.1.056 icc/11.1.056 mkl/10.2.2

python setup.py config --compiler=intele --fcompiler=intele build install --
prefix=/home/cesga/mpan/numpy-1.5.0

exit 0

[Numpy-discussion] read ascii file from complex fortran format() -- genfromtxt

2010-09-21 Thread Andrew Jaffe
Hi all,

I've got an ascii file with a relatively complicated structure, 
originally written by fortran with the format:

 135format(a12,1x,2(f10.5,1x),i3,1x,4(f9.3,1x),4(i2,1x),3x,
  1 16(f7.2,1x),i3,3x,f13.5,1x,f10.5,1x,f10.6,1x,i3,1x,
  2 4(f10.6,1x),
  2 i2,1x,f5.2,1x,f10.3,1x,i3,1x,f7.2,1x,f7.2,3x,4(f7.4,1x),
  3 4(f7.2,1x),3x,f7.2,1x,i4,3x,f10.3,1x,14(f6.2,1x),i3,1x,
  1  3x,2f10.5,8f11.2,2f10.5,f12.3,3x,
  4 2(a6,1x),a23,1x,a22,1x,a22)

Note, in particular, that many of the strings contain white space.

Is there a relatively straightforward way to translate this into  dtype 
(and delimiter?) arguments for use with genfromtxt or do I just have to 
do it by hand?

Hi,

There have been many reports from OS X 10.5(.8) users that the provided
binaries on Sourceforge for numpy versions = 1.4.0 do not work, see
http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1322. If you're an OS X 10.5 user I
would like your help to test if the same issue occurs for the following
binary:

Re: [Numpy-discussion] unique 2d arrays

2010-09-21 Thread Peter Schmidtke
Hey Josef,

I didn't stumble upon these posts. Thanks for the hint...it doesn't look
very pythonic or matlab like still. This would be a nice thing to have a
unique function that is able to take an axis argument.

Cheers.

Here is one alternative:

I[16]: np.array(list(set(tuple(i) for i in a.tolist(

   [431, 129]])

I[6]: %timeit
np.unique(a.view([('',a.dtype)]*a.shape[1])).view(a.dtype).reshape(-1,a.shape[1])
1 loops, best of 3: 51 us per loop

I[8]: %timeit np.array(list(set(tuple(i) for i in a.tolist(
1 loops, best of 3: 31.4 us per loop

# Try with a bigger array
I[9]: k = np.array((a.tolist()*5))

np.unique(k.view([('',k.dtype)]*k.shape[1])).view(k.dtype).reshape(-1,k.shape[1])
1 loops, best of 3: 790 ms per loop


Seems like faster on these tests comparing to the unique method. Also it is
more readable. Still not uber Pythonic. Haskell has nub to remove
duplicate list elements.

I'm a bit surprised, I think np.unique does some extra work to
maintain the order.
The tolist() might not be necessary if you iterate over rows.

 .tolist version is faster. Can you also verify this?

I get the same results:

[Numpy-discussion] A proposed change to rollaxis() behavior for negative 'start' values

2010-09-21 Thread Ken Basye
Hi Numpy Folks,
  A while back, I filed this ticket:  
http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1441  suggesting a change to 
rollaxis() and some fixes to the doc and error reporting.  Ralf Gommers 
suggested I float the behavior change here, so that's what I'm doing. 

The motivation for the change comes because it seems like there should 
be a simpler way to get some axis into the last position than to do this:

  a = np.ones((3,4,5,6))
  b = np.rollaxis(a, axis=0, start=len(a.shape))
  b.shape
(4, 5, 6, 3)

But currently it seems there isn't because when you specify -1 as the 
'start' argument, the axis is moved into the second-to-last position.  
My proposed change, which you can see on the ticket, would change that 
so that using -1 referred to the end position.  Note that the use of 
negative 'start' arguments isn't currently documented and, in its 
current form, doesn't seem very useful.  My proposal wouldn't change the 
behavior for positive 'start' values at all, and the interpretation of 
'axis' arguments is also unaffected.

Re: [Numpy-discussion] A proposed change to rollaxis() behavior for negative 'start' values

2010-09-21 Thread Anne Archibald
Hi Ken,

This is a tricky one. The current behaviour of rollaxis is to remove
the requested axis from the list of axes and then insert it before the
axis specified. This is exactly how python's list insertion works:

In [1]: a = range(10)

In [3]: a.insert(-1,'a')

In [4]: a
Out[4]: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 'a', 9]

And indeed, there's no clean way to add something to the end of a list
using insert (apart from the obvious a.insert(len(a),'b') ). For this
you have .append(). Unfortunately numpy's rollaxis, while it agrees
with insert in its behaviour, doesn't have a move_axis_to_end. The
situation is also somewhat muddied by the fact that rollaxis also
removes the axis from the original list of axes, so that the
interpretation of index numbers is a little more subtle. But I think
your suggested behaviour would be confusing because of the conflict
with python's insert. How about allowing the string end as an
argument to rollaxis to specify that the axis should go at the end?

 Hi Numpy Folks,
  A while back, I filed this ticket:
 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1441  suggesting a change to
 rollaxis() and some fixes to the doc and error reporting.  Ralf Gommers
 suggested I float the behavior change here, so that's what I'm doing.

 The motivation for the change comes because it seems like there should
 be a simpler way to get some axis into the last position than to do this:

   a = np.ones((3,4,5,6))
   b = np.rollaxis(a, axis=0, start=len(a.shape))
   b.shape
 (4, 5, 6, 3)

 But currently it seems there isn't because when you specify -1 as the
 'start' argument, the axis is moved into the second-to-last position.
 My proposed change, which you can see on the ticket, would change that
 so that using -1 referred to the end position.  Note that the use of
 negative 'start' arguments isn't currently documented and, in its
 current form, doesn't seem very useful.  My proposal wouldn't change the
 behavior for positive 'start' values at all, and the interpretation of
 'axis' arguments is also unaffected.

 If that's going to break too much code, here's a pathway that might be
 acceptable:  Add a new function moveaxis() which works the way
 rollaxis() does for positive arguments but in the new way for negative

[Numpy-discussion] real and imag functions should produce errors for object arrays

2010-09-21 Thread Michael Gilbert
Hi,

The following example demonstrates a rather unexpected result:

 import numpy
 x = numpy.array( complex( 1.0 , 1.0 ) , numpy.object )
 print x.real
(1+1j)
 print x.imag
0

Shouldn't real and imag return an error in such a situation?

Don't use 'numpy.object'.  Because complex is a  numerical type, numpy can
handle it just fine.  By setting dtype to numpy.object, numpy then treats it
like an object rather than a numerical.

x = numpy.array( complex(1.0, 1.0) )

should work just fine.

I hope that helps!

It looks like there was a decision to let 'real' and 'imag' pass
quietly for non-numerical types:

In [2]: a = np.array('hello', dtype=object)

In [3]: a.real
Out[3]: array('hello', dtype=object)

In [4]: a.imag
Out[4]: array(0, dtype=object)

and

In [6]: a = np.array('hello', dtype='S5')

In [7]: a.real
Out[7]:
array('hello',
  dtype='|S5')

In [8]: a.imag
Out[8]:
array('',
  dtype='|S5')

I can see that that could be confusing.   I suppose the alternative
would be to raise an error for real and imag for non-numerical types
at least.

Best,

The reason it is that way is probably because object and str dtypes
were an afterthought when we extended .real and .imag to all dtypes.
We used to only have those attributes on complex arrays. We added the
behavior described above to all of the other dtypes to allow one to
use the .real and .imag attributes regardless of whether the array was
complex or real. I don't think we gave much thought to what the right
thing to do with object arrays or str arrays. Perhaps we did think
about it and decided that consistency with the other non-complex
dtypes was more important than trying to expensively inspect the
individual objects for .real and .imag attributes.

[Numpy-discussion] slicing / indexing question

2010-09-21 Thread Timothy W. Hilton
Hello,

I have an indexing problem which I suspect has a simple solution, but
I've not been able to piece together various threads I've read on this
list to solve.

I have an 80x1200x1200 nd.array of floats this_par.  I have a
1200x1200 boolean array idx, and an 80-element float array pars.  For
each element of idx that is True, I wish to replace the corresponding
80x1x1 slice of this_par with the elements of pars.

I've tried lots of variations on the theme of
this_par[idx[np.newaxis, ...]] = pars[:, np.newaxis, np.newaxis]
but so far, no dice.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Tim

 then delete the numpy folder in site-packages if it is still there.

 Why don't you upgrade to the latest release. If you are already
 upgrading, jumping to the latest might be better.

 You will need to replace your numpy-1.1.0 library. This is accomplished by
 first removing numpy-1.1.0 from the Python library located at

C:\Python2.5\Lib\site-packages.

 Delete the numpy folder.

 Next execute the numpy-1.2.0-win32-superpack-python2.5.exe to
 install numpy 1.2.0.

 Try sentuser.py to make sure it runs properly. If not, contact me.

 I need to check my XP machine.  I'll be back when I figure out if that's
 right. My not always recollection was that it was not on Add/Remove
 under XP.

 I'm dealing with people who barely understand software, so keeping this
 simple is the best thing to do. This version of the application is the
 last, and we might as well treat it as frozen.  I really don't want to
 try to correct people's install problems or attempts to move ahead with
 the various libraries we use over the internet, so simple is it.

If you want to have a frozen application, the best might be to use
py2exe, but maybe not worth the effort, if they don't mess with the
installed python packages.

 this one is a bit more important to get an answer for.

 I'm about to distribute some report programs to three people who work
 together and should be using the same version of Python and libraries
 that I use, and a common application to us. However, to create two new
 report programs they do not have, I need to make sure we do have the
 same versions, and in particular need to use the numpy 1.2.0 I used for
 the report programs.

 To replace the old numpy and make sure we are all on on the same wave
 length, I wrote the description below.  I want to know if what I say
 about removing 1.1.0 and installing 1.2.0 is correct.  I think deleting
 the folder as below is the right way to go.  numpy is not in Control
 Panel Add/Remove.
