Remove integer from float number

How can I return: .666 from float: 0.666 This is what I have so far: %.6f % x Thanks Everyone, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Remove integer from float number

Ahh yes you have to put parenthases around the string formatting to remove the integer using indexes. Thanks, that's just what I needed! Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Counting nested loop iterations

What is the best way to count nested loop iterations? I can only figure to use an index but that seems kludgy. index = 0 for animal in zoo: for color in animal: index += 1 Thanks, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Counting nested loop iterations

Depending on the types of the containers in question, you could use: len(zoo) * len(animal) I think this would give me the total iterations but I wouldn't be able to get a running count. Correct? Thanks for the reply, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

to pass the same parameters all over a class? I can';t quite seem to wrap my head around this one. Thanks again everyone, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Is it better to use class variables or pass parameters?

This one has always bugged me. Is it better to just slap a self in front of any variable that will be used by more than one class method or should I pass around variable between the methods? FlamewarNOW! jk, I really do want other opinions. Thanks, Derek --

Good tip John. Hopefully it will help someone out. Thanks again. Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Matplotlib logarithmic scatter plot

Thanks again. Here is the finished product. Maybe it will help someone in the future: from pylab import * def log_10_product(x, pos): The two args are the value and tick position. Label ticks with the product of the exponentiation return '%1i' % (x) ax = subplot(111) # Axis scale

Rounding up to the nearest exact logarithmic decade

Given a value (x) that is within the range (1e-1, 1e7) how do I round (x) up to the closest exact logarithmic decade? For instance: 10**3 = 1000 x = 4978 10**4 = 1 x = 1 Thanks Everyone! Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thanks effbot. I knew their had to be something buried in the math module that could help. ceil() it is! /dTb -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Matplotlib logarithmic scatter plot

Can anyone give any suggestions on how to make a logarithmic (base 10) x and y axis (loglog) plot in matplotlib? The scatter function doesn't seem to have any log functionality built into it. Thanks, Derek Basch P.S. I suck at math so feel free to make me feel stupid if it is really easy to do

Re: Matplotlib logarithmic scatter plot

Great! That worked fine after I played with it for a bit. One last question though. How do I label the ticks with the product of the exponentiation? For instance: 100 instead of 10**2 Thanks for all the help, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Is there a better way to count iterations that this?: pets = 0 for i in pets: pets += 1 print pet + # + pets Thanks, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Counting iterations

ooops you are right. Should have been: pets = [cat, dog, bird] num_pets = 0 for i in pets: num_pets += 1 print pet + # + num_pets That's the problem with one offs. I don't read them :). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
