fitting - Keeping Nonlinear Model Fit Real


So I am using the NonlinearModelFit (NLM) command with a fairly simple function. There are 4 unknowns and the (x, y) points that I am fitting the function to. I am getting my approximations from a Manipulate so I can just tweak the values till it's close enough. But once I get the values into the NLM, I get this error about the function value not being a real number at these values (not the same values that I put into the NLM). I have tried several different sets of values and every time I get the same error. I do have two constraints that keep two of my values positive.



R = 0.42; Sigma = 73.06967052; Theta=1.32757;

nData={{0.989939, 4.62}, {0.989939, 4.64}, {0.989939, 4.66},
       {0.989939, 4.68}, {0.989939, 4.7}, {0.989939, 4.72},
       {0.989939, 4.74}, {0.989939, 4.76}, {0.989939, 4.78},
       {0.989939, 4.8}, {0.99398, 4.82}, {0.99398, 4.84},
       {0.99398, 4.86}, {0.99398, 4.88}, {0.99398, 4.9},
       {0.99398, 4.92}, {0.99398, 4.94}, {0.99398, 4.96},
       {0.99398, 4.98}, {0.99398, 5}, {0.99398, 5.02},
       {0.99398, 5.04}, {0.99398, 5.06}, {0.99398, 5.08},

       {0.99398, 5.1}};

nlm = NonlinearModelFit[
    nData, 
    {((3 + s)/(1 + s) 1/R (h + dh)^(1 + s))* ((p/(Sigma*Cos[Theta]))^s)*
        Hypergeometric2F1[1 + s, s, 2 + s, (h + dh)/h0], s > 0, p > 0}, 
    {{p, 0.207}, {s, 1}, {h0, 2.04}, {dh, 0.9}}, h

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...
