Week 2: Numpy+Matplotlib AST 325 Tutorial Week 2 TA: Siqi Liu, Alex Roman 2018-09-17/18 Installation Scipy Stack (Ref From Week 2: Numpy+Matplotlib AST 325 tutorial week 2 TA: Siqi Liu, Alex Roman 2018-09-17/18 Installation Scipy Stack (ref from www.numpy.org) ● Installing the Scipy Stack: ○ Python (2.x >= 2.6 or 3.x >= 3.2) ○ NumPy (>= 1.6) ○ SciPy library (>= 0.10) ○ Matplotlib (>= 1.1) ■ dateutil ■ pytz ■ Support for at least one backend ○ IPython (>= 0.13) ■ pyzmq ■ tornado ○ pandas (>= 0.8) ○ Sympy (>= 0.7) ○ nose (>= 1.1) Installation (Linux) ● Installing through pip: ○ Upgrade pip: ■ python -m pip install --upgrade pip ○ Install the scipy package: ■ pip install --user numpy scipy matplotlib ipython jupyter pandas sympy nose ○ Make sure the dir is correct: ■ Linux: export PATH="$PATH:/home/your_user/.local/bin" ■ MacOS: export PATH="$PATH:/Users/your_user/Library/Python/3.5/bin" ● Install systemwide via a Linux package manager¶ ○ Ubuntu & Debian: ■ sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib ipython ipython-notebook python-pandas python-sympy python-nose ○ Fedora: ■ sudo dnf install numpy scipy python-matplotlib ipython python-pandas sympy python-nose atlas-devel Installation (MacOS) ● Pip ● Macports ● Homebrew ● Anaconda ● Spyder (what we are using for this lab) Installation (Windows) ● Compared to OSX and Linux, building NumPy and SciPy on Windows is difficult, largely due to the lack of compatible, open-source libraries like LAPACK or ATLAS that are necessary to build both libraries and have them perform relatively well. You can’t sudo apt-get install everything like you can on the other two platforms. ○ MinGW ○ CygWin Python basics (if statement) ● If statement a = 200 b = 33 if b > a: print("b is greater than a") elif a == b: print("a and b are equal") else: print("a is greater than b") Python basics: loop ● For loop for x in range(6): print(x) ● While loop: i = 1 while i < 6: print(i) i += 1 Functions ● Define a function: def my_abs(x): if x >= 0: return x else: return -x Python basics: Numpy Array (1) ● NumPy’s main object is the homogeneous multidimensional array: ○ The ndarray ○ The data-type object that describes the layout of a single fixed-size element of the array ○ The array-scalar Python object that is obtained when a single element of the array is assessed. Python basics: Numpy Array (2) ● Constructing ○ From list ■ np.array(my_list) ○ Zeros with a shape tuple ■ np.zeros(shape_tuple) e.g. ● np.zeros( (10, 5) ) gives a 10x5 array of value 0.0 ○ Random float distributed on (0,1) of length n: ■ np.random.rand(n) ○ Random float matrix of size m x n ■ ar = np.mat( np.random.rand( m * n ).reshape(m, n) ) ○ n samples drawn from a normal distribution with mean 0, variance 1: ■ np.random.normal(0.0, 1.0, n) ○ Range of integers from 0 to n with step size 1 ■ np.arange(n) ○ n equispaced floats from a to b ■ np.linspace(a, b, n) Python basics: Numpy Array (3) ● Indexing and slicing ○ Import numpy as np ○ >>> x = np.array([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]) >>> x[1:7:2] array([1, 3, 5]) >>>x[0::2] array([0, 2, 4, 6, 8]) ○ ar = np.random.rand(100) ar[ar > 0.5] -> only the elements above 0.5 (note that ar > 0.5 actually is a mask of booleans!) ● Array methods: ○ Shape manipulate: x.reshape(2,5) ○ Conversion to list: x.tolist() ● Data type: int, bool, float, complex, bytes, str, unicode, buffer ○ In general, the dtype you need is np.<dtype_name> e.g. a 32-bit float is np.float32 ○ Follows C conventions (just google it!) ○ Generally safe to use np.float (same as float); this is a “double” in C parlance Python basics: Numpy Array (4) ● Arithmetic and matrix multiplication, comparison operations ○ Defined as element-wise operations, and generally yield ndarray objects as results. ○ Each of the arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /, //, %, divmod(), ** or pow(), <<, >>, &, ^, |, ~) and the comparisons (==, <, >, <=, >=, !=) is equivalent to the corresponding universal function (or ufunc for short) in NumPy ○ A*B # elementwise product EXCEPT if A and B are matrices, then it’s the matrix product! Read: matrix objects A.dot(B) # matrix product np.dot(A, B) # another matrix product ○ Note: use my_matrix.A to access an ndarray copy of your np.matrix object my_matrix, e.g. when you want to do elementwise operations Exercise 1 ● Constructing a 20x5 array, normally distributed (mean=0, variance=1) ● Calculate the sum of the array ● Calculate the mean, standard deviation (std), min and max value along the first axis (axis 0). Hint: new_array = np.random.normal(mean, variance, shape) statistic = np.stat_name(my_array, axis=my_axis) Matplotlib: Sample Plots Line plot Multiple Image Line subplots in plot a figure Histogram Contour plots and pseudo-color 3D plot Matplotlib: customize plots with style sheets and rcParameters import numpy as np ● Use style sheets: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib as mpl plt.style.use('ggplot') data = np.random.randn(50) ● Configure your own: mpl.rcParams['lines.linewidth'] = 2 mpl.rcParams['lines.color'] = 'r' plt.plot(data) Exercise 2: Plotting 2D Arrays ● We’re going to graphically ‘solve’ the equation x^2 - y^2 = -½ ● Make a 2D array of x^2 of size 100 x 100 on the range (0,1): ○ Mega hint: x = np.tile( np.linspace( 0.0, 1.0, 100 ), 100 ).reshape( 100, 100 ) ● Now, form y by taking the transpose of x (hint: x.T is the transpose of x) ● Now, form your result z = x^2 - y^2 ● Plot the result using matplotlib.pyplot.imshow() ○ Tip - use the import statement “import matplotlib.pyplot as plt” (lots of refs use plt to mean this) ● Save the first plot using plt.savefig(plotname.png) ● Make a ‘mask’ of elements between -0.51 and -0.49 ● Plot the mask in a separate figure and save ● You solved the equation!

  • A Comparative Evaluation of Matlab, Octave, R, and Julia on Maya 1 Introduction
    A Comparative Evaluation of Matlab, Octave, R, and Julia on Maya Sai K. Popuri and Matthias K. Gobbert* Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Maryland, Baltimore County *Corresponding author: [email protected], www.umbc.edu/~gobbert Technical Report HPCF{2017{3, hpcf.umbc.edu > Publications Abstract Matlab is the most popular commercial package for numerical computations in mathematics, statistics, the sciences, engineering, and other fields. Octave is a freely available software used for numerical computing. R is a popular open source freely available software often used for statistical analysis and computing. Julia is a recent open source freely available high-level programming language with a sophisticated com- piler for high-performance numerical and statistical computing. They are all available to download on the Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X operating systems. We investigate whether the three freely available software are viable alternatives to Matlab for uses in research and teaching. We compare the results on part of the equipment of the cluster maya in the UMBC High Performance Computing Facility. The equipment has 72 nodes, each with two Intel E5-2650v2 Ivy Bridge (2.6 GHz, 20 MB cache) proces- sors with 8 cores per CPU, for a total of 16 cores per node. All nodes have 64 GB of main memory and are connected by a quad-data rate InfiniBand interconnect. The tests focused on usability lead us to conclude that Octave is the most compatible with Matlab, since it uses the same syntax and has the native capability of running m-files. R was hampered by somewhat different syntax or function names and some missing functions.

  • Basic Plotting with Python and Matplotlib
    Basic Plotting with Python and Matplotlib This guide assumes that you have already installed NumPy and Matplotlib for your Python distribution. You can check if it is installed by importing it: import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # The code below assumes this convenient renaming For those of you familiar with MATLAB, the basic Matplotlib syntax is very similar. 1 Line plots The basic syntax for creating line plots is plt.plot(x,y), where x and y are arrays of the same length that specify the (x; y) pairs that form the line. For example, let's plot the cosine function from −2 to 1. To do so, we need to provide a discretization (grid) of the values along the x-axis, and evaluate the function on each x value. This can typically be done with numpy.arange or numpy.linspace. xvals = np.arange(-2, 1, 0.01) # Grid of 0.01 spacing from -2 to 10 yvals = np.cos(xvals) # Evaluate function on xvals plt.plot(xvals, yvals) # Create line plot with yvals against xvals plt.show() # Show the figure You should put the plt.show command last after you have made all relevant changes to the plot. You can create multiple figures by creating new figure windows with plt.figure(). To output all these figures at once, you should only have one plt.show command at the very end. Also, unless you turned the interactive mode on, the code will be paused until you close the figure window. Suppose we want to add another plot, the quadratic approximation to the cosine function.

  • COMPARISON of MATLAB, OCTAVE, and PYLAB Matlab (Www
    COMPARISON OF MATLAB, OCTAVE, AND PYLAB ED BUELER Matlab (www.mathworks.com) was designed by Cleve Moler for teaching numerical linear algebra. It has become a powerful programming language and engineering tool. It should not be confused with the city in Bangladesh (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matlab Upazila). But I like free, open source software. There are free alternatives to Matlab, and they'll work well for this course. First, Octave is a Matlab clone. The examples below work in an identical way in Matlab and in Octave.1 I will mostly use Octave myself for teaching, but I'll test examples in both Octave and Matlab. To download Octave, go to www.gnu.org/software/octave. Second, the scipy (www.scipy.org) and pylab (matplotlib.sourceforge.net) libraries give the general-purpose interpreted language Python (python.org) all of Matlab functionality plus quite a bit more. This combination is called pylab. Using it with the ipython interactive shell (ipython.scipy.org) gives the most Matlab-like experience. However, the examples below hint at the computer language differences and the different modes of thought, between Matlab/Octave and Python. Students who already use Python, or have computer science inclinations, will like this option. On the next page are two algorithms each in Matlab/Octave form (left column) and pylab form (right column). To download these examples, follow links at the class page www.dms.uaf.edu/∼bueler/Math615S12.htm. Here are some brief \how-to" comments for the Matlab/Octave examples: expint.m is a script. A script is run by starting Matlab/Octave, either in the directory containing the examples, or with a change to the \path".

  • Introduction to Matplotlib
    Introduction to 5 Matplotlib Lab Objective: Matplotlib is the most commonly used data visualization library in Python. Being able to visualize data helps to determine patterns, to communicate results, and is a key component of applied and computational mathematics. In this lab we introduce techniques for visualizing data in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. The plotting techniques presented here will be used in the remainder of the labs in the manual. Line Plots Raw numerical data is rarely helpful unless it can be visualized. The quickest way to visualize a simple 1-dimensional array is via a line plot. The following code creates an array of outputs of the function f(x) = x2, then visualizes the array using the matplotlib module.1 >>> import numpy as np >>> from matplotlib import pyplot as plt >>> y = np.arange(-5,6)**2 >>> y array([25, 16, 9, 4, 1, 0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25]) # Visualize the plot. >>> plt.plot(y)# Draw the line plot. [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at0x1084762d0>] >>> plt.show()# Reveal the resulting plot. The result is shown in Figure 5.1a. Just as np is a standard alias for NumPy, plt is a standard alias for matplotlib.pyplot in the Python community. The call plt.plot(y) creates a figure and draws straight lines connecting the entries of y relative to the y-axis. The x-axis is (by default) the index of the array, which in this case is the integers from 0 to 10. Calling plt.show() then displays the figure. 1Like NumPy, Matplotlib is not part of the Python standard library, but it is included in most Python distributions.
