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} *)

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

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...

What is and isn't a valid variable specification for Manipulate?

I have an expression whose terms have arguments (representing subscripts), like this: myExpr = A[0] + V[1,T] I would like to put it inside a Manipulate to see its value as I move around the parameters. (The goal is eventually to plot it wrt one of the variables inside.) However, Mathematica complains when I set V[1,T] as a manipulated variable: Manipulate[Evaluate[myExpr], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, T], 0, 1}] (*Manipulate::vsform: Manipulate argument {V[1,T],0,1} does not have the correct form for a variable specification. >> *) As a workaround, if I get rid of the symbol T inside the argument, it works fine: Manipulate[ Evaluate[myExpr /. T -> 15], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, 15], 0, 1}] Why this behavior? Can anyone point me to the documentation that says what counts as a valid variable? And is there a way to get Manpiulate to accept an expression with a symbolic argument as a variable? Investigations I've done so far: I tried using variableQ from this answer , but it says V[1...
