list manipulation - Faster trimming of leading/trailing zeroes in rectangular array


Given a (large) rectangular array, e.g. (small for example case):


Column[{test, test // MatrixForm}, Left, 2]

(*

{{1, 3, 0, 3, 0}, {1, 3, 0, 3, 3}, {0, 2, 3, 1, 3}, {2, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{2, 0, 2, 3, 1}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 0, 0}}
*)

enter image description here


I need to remove any leading/trailing zeroes from rows, dropping row if all zeroes, e.g. with above the result s/b


(* {{1, 3, 0, 3}, {1, 3, 0, 3, 3}, {2, 3, 1, 3}, {2}, {2, 0, 2, 3, 1}, {1}} *)

I'm using


trim0 = With[{t = DeleteCases[#, ConstantArray[0, Length@#[[1]]]]}, 

MapIndexed[t[[First@#2, #1[[1]] ;; #1[[-1]]]] &, SparseArray[t]["AdjacencyLists"]]] &;

Might there be a faster method?


N.B.: Currently, I'm working with arrays of non-negative integers, so if that can be used to speed things (above is general)...



Answer



idtz = Internal`DeleteTrailingZeros; 
trim0a = With[{t = Reverse/@ idtz/@DeleteCases[#, ConstantArray[0, Length@#[[1]]]]},
Reverse /@ idtz /@ t] &;

trim0b = With[{t = DeleteCases[#, ConstantArray[0, Length@#[[1]]]]},

Fold[idtz@#2@# &, #, {Reverse, Reverse}] & /@ t] &;

Equal @@ (#@test & /@ {trim0, trim0a, trim0b})
(* True *)

Some timings:


n = 5000; m = 5000; k = 1;
testmat = RandomChoice[{k, 1, 1, 1} -> Range[0, 3], {n, m}];
rslt = {0, 0, 0}; i = 1;
First[AbsoluteTiming[rslt[[i++]] = #@testmat ;]] & /@ {trim0, trim0a, trim0b}

(* {1.900441, 1.351605, 0.965583} *)
Equal @@ rslt
(* True *)

n = 5000; m = 5000; k = 5;
(* {1.265648, 1.555662, 1.140635} *)
n = 1000000; m = 10; k = 1;
(* {6.119162, 4.407390, 5.105766} *)
n = 1000000; m = 10; k = 5;
(* {5.770310, 4.532018, 5.306773} *)

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...
