list manipulation - Get positions of all non zero matrix elements


I want to find all non zero elements of a table and I want to create a list that contains the name of the table the element was removed from, the position of the element, and the value of the element.


Then to the generated list I would like to apply a replacment rule to the row and the column.



rule = {1 -> "a", 2 -> "b", 3 -> "c"}

{ {tablename, row, col, value} }

For example I have tried


dataTable1 = {{1,0,0}, {0,1,0}, {0,0,-1}} 

Position[Abs[dataTable1], # > 0 &]

but I am unable to get get the position. I would like the final out put to be



 { {"dataTable1", 1,1,1}, {"dataTable1", 2,2,1}, {"dataTable1", 3,3,-1} }

If we apply the replacment.


  { {"dataTable1", 1,1,1}, {"dataTable1", 2,2,1}, {"dataTable1", 3,3,-1} } /. rule 

Then the output should be


 { {"dataTable1", "a","a",1}, {"dataTable1", "b","b",1}, {"dataTable1", "c","c",-1} }

Answer



info[tbl_] := With[{s = SparseArray[tbl]},
ArrayPad[Append @@@ Transpose[{s["NonzeroPositions"], s["NonzeroValues"]}],

{0, {1, 0}}, ToString@Unevaluated@tbl]]

SetAttributes[info, HoldFirst]

result=info[dataTable1]

(* {{"dataTable1", 1, 1, 1}, {"dataTable1", 2, 2, 1}, {"dataTable1", 3, 3, -1}} *)

As to the second part of your query, assume the result from the info function is in a symbol named result, then using your example rule list,


MapAt[(# /. rule) &, result, {All, 2 ;; 3}]


(*
{{"dataTable1", "a", "a", 1}, {"dataTable1", "b", "b", 1},{"dataTable1", "c", "c", -1}}
*)

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...

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...
