list manipulation - Interactive grid


I would like to create an interactive grid, whereby one number from a grid is selected by the cursor ("3" in the example below), and all other numbers in the grid are highlighted that are related to the chosen number, and each successive number after that. In the example below, "3" is the selected number, and the highlighted numbers are double the previous one.


I am not sure whether a loop, or a direct function (in this case, clearly multiplying by powers of 2) would be the best approach - I assume the function-apply approach would be the quickest for large grids.


Below is an example:


enter image description here


generated with:


m = 10;(*size of the grid*)

premade = Transpose@Partition[Range@100, m];


col[n_] := Table[{n - 0.5, i - 0.5}, {i, 1, m}]

Graphics[{
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{0, 2}, {01, 3}]},
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{0, 5}, {01, 6}]},
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{1, 1}, {02, 2}]},
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{2, 3}, {03, 4}]},
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{4, 7}, {05, 8}]},
{Red, Opacity[0.3], Rectangle[{9, 5}, {10, 6}]},


Table[Text[Style[premade[[#, i]], Large, FontFamily -> "Times"],col[i][[#]]] &
/@ Range@m, {i, 1, m}]},
GridLines -> {Range@m, Range@m}, PlotRange -> {{0, m}, {0, m}},
Axes -> False, Frame -> True,
GridLinesStyle -> Directive[GrayLevel[0.8], Dashed]]

NOTE: All columns will be separate lists.



Answer



Here is what I would propose related to the use of Graphics:



DynamicModule[{color = Red, m = 10, premade, col, posnum, posFriends, 
unSortedPos, posMouse = {0, 0}, positionColor = {{0, 0}}},
(*Initialization code*)
premade = Transpose@Partition[Range@(m*m), m];
col[n_] := Table[{n - 0.5, i - 0.5}, {i, 1, m}];

EventHandler[
Graphics[
{
Dynamic@{Opacity@0.2, Red, Rectangle /@ positionColor},

Table[Text[Style[premade[[#, i]], Large, FontFamily -> "Times"],
col[i][[#]]] & /@ Range@m, {i, 1, m}]
},
GridLines -> {Range@m, Range@m}, PlotRange -> {{0, m}, {0, m}}, Axes -> False,
Frame -> True, GridLinesStyle -> Directive[GrayLevel[0.8], Dashed], ImageSize -> 350],

{"MouseDown" :> (posMouse = Floor[MousePosition["Graphics", Graphics], 1];
posFriends[premade, posnum@premade];)}],

Initialization :>

(
posFriends[list_, start_] :=
(unSortedPos = (# - {1, 1} & /@
Flatten[Position[list, #]&/@ Select[Table[start*2^(i-1), {i, 1, 10}], # <= m*m&], 1]);
positionColor = Reverse@unSortedPos[[#]] & /@ Range@Length@unSortedPos;
);
posnum[list_] := list[[Last@posMouse + 1, First@posMouse + 1]];
)
]

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...

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...

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...
