I'm calculating key rate (R^Rate-wise) by integrating R(eta) over all possible eta from 0 to 1, with a probability distribution (PDTC) which is a log-normal distribution. The equation of log-normal distribution: The equation of R(eta): Therefore, R^Rate-wise =...

I'm interested in quantum programming. So far I've managed to use Java and Python inside Datamelt computation project for physics simulations and for various statistical plots. Now I want to make a simple code that illustates quantum computing, and maybe even to visualize its principles (for...

Hi I have a list of 3D angular velocities (a numerical solution to an ODE). I want to show the trajectory this rotation would cause by mapping it out on the unit sphere. How can I go about doing that? What is the best way to approach this?

I am trying to animate a plot of two distinct points (blue and green points) moving about the complex unit circle using Python's Matplotlib library. The problem I am having is that the animation does not remove and update the previous data points but rather sequentially smears it on the unit...

This is another application of using Taylor recurrences (open access) to solve ODEs to arbitrarily high order (e.g. 10th order in the example invocation). It illustrates use of trigonometric recurrences, rather than the product recurrences in my earlier Lorenz ODE posts. Enjoy! #!/usr/bin/env...

Hi All, I am trying to learn versions 2,3 of Python ( long story). Just curious as to the "Dependency/Compatibility" issues between and within versions 2 and 3. Are packages/libraries in 3.x available for 3.x' where x'>x ? How about for version 2? Specifically, at this point, I am trying to...

Hey everyone! This might be a bit of a dumb question, but I'm not familiar with much in the programming world. I know a few languages that I've learned on my own (online) or through a course in school (MATLAB). When it comes down to coding outside of MATLAB or a website, I'm not sure where to...

Hi all, I had shebanged a Python program file to train myself to run Python from the command line or search box. Problem is now I cannot access my old text-based .py files. Every time I click on them to open, they run in the command line. How can I access the text format again?

Hi, I want to plot the vector field ##\vec F = ye^x \hat i + (x^2 + e^x) \hat j + z^2e^z \hat k## The code I have tried: # The components of the vector field F_x = y*e**x F_y = x**2 + e**x F_z = z**2*e**z# The grid xf = np.linspace(-0.15, 2.25, 8) yf = np.linspace(-0.15, 2.25, 8) zf =...

Hi, I want to program an GARCH model for exchange rates. To do this, I calculated the residuals. Next, I did the following (in python) def main(): vP0 = (0.1, 0.05, 0.92) a = minimize(garch_loglike, vP0, eps, bounds = ((0.0001, None), (0.0001, None), (0.0001, None))...

I want to make an animation where a (red) ball departs from (0,0) and draws the function ##f(x) = sin x## This is what I know: How to plot ##f(x) = sin x## To do so I followed instructions from the worksheet. Actually I'd have done: But I guess they want to me to it in that way because...

I asked this question on SO, but I am having problems with it (I cannot even get into my account now). It seems that people using the IP I am using are asking a lot and that limits the number of questions I can ask. Please have a look at my question. Here's the link: [Moderators note: bold large...

I was reading this wikiperdia article on polyminos (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyomino). The pictures look very nice. Example I want to learn how to generate these figures myself in an interactive way. Basically I want to start with a polymino and then I want to be able to translate (by...

Two weeks ago I had no idea on how to code using Python. Now I have completed an online course on functions, loops and strings. However, in that course I did not practice using the specific library called Sympy. Besides, I will use Python in the Physics-Math background, for solving problems like...

I am looking for a book for learning Python so as to compute matrices, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, divergence, curl (i.e vector calculus). If you also have online recommendations please feel free to write them.

Back in the day, when Perl was my go to language, Programming Perl, the Camel Book, from O'Reilly was The Reference. It was the quick and concise way to get an answer. And you'd probably learn something you weren't necessarily looking for and get a chuckle along the way. Now that Python is my...

Hello and thanks in advance for your help. For about a week now, I've been trying to write what should be a simple python program. The idea is first to write a program for a simple harmonic pendulum, then adapt it to a spring pendulum. However, in order to do this, I have to write the simple...

I have four arrays of data xvalues[], yvalues[], zvalues[] and wvalues[] and I want to create, from this data, an interpolated function w = f(x,y,z). Is it easy to do this in python using first a meshgrid and then calling scipy's interpolation? e.g toy set up is something like, where wvalues...

Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a sequence that evaluates r for i= 1 to 10 and 100 to 110 ...N (evaluate 10 skip 90 repeats till N). If python has a GoTo function, I would've used it to return the previous line to repeat. But I couldn't find a function like that anywhere on the internet. 1...

Looking for suggestions on books (or other learning material) that will help me improve my skills using Python for scientific computing. I am comfortable with Python programming (syntax, conditional statements, loops, etc.), and use it for data analysis in my undergraduate experimental physics...

Hi All, I am having trouble figuring out how to do extended, i.e., many-lined, comments. I know the format is ( copied from website): “””” Problem is that, while I can find the '' in my Qwerty keyboard, I can't figure out how to find the rest in my keyboard. I assume all Qwertys are the...

This is not a question, but a note, which I thought could help students. I thought I would share this here, as people may be looking for practice problems. My professor in the Python course I just finished recommended https://projecteuler.net/ as a site to practice using programming skills...

Hi, I somehow carelessly installed Python 3.72, 32-bit in my 64-bit system. Is this a workable situation or will I pay a price eventually in a conflict between 32-bit software living in a 64-bit system? Should I uninstall and reinstall a 64-bit version?
