Given a sorted list of numbers $S$, I want to create a function that accepts a list of numbers $L$ and for each number $l \in L$ it returns the index of the largest number $s \in S$ such that $s {0.405196, 4.56535, 7.04274, 7.95001, 8.6823} And, here are a couple examples of the argument to the function: {6.67917, 8.33874, 4.61316, 4.83263, 9.52033} {6.0669, 1.22425, 6.13959} Then, I want to create a function such that return: One possibility is to use: But, this approach is quite slow when dealing with large arguments: {1.15025, Null} I'm interested in arguments on the order of 10^6 elements, and ordered sets $S$ on the order 10^4 elements. Is there a faster method?SeedRandom[13];
S = Sort @ RandomReal[10, 5]SeedRandom[10];
list1 = RandomReal[10, 5]
list2 = RandomReal[10, 3]f
:f = findIndices[S];
f[list1]
f[list2](*
{2, 4, 2, 2, 5}
{2, 1, 2}
*)findIndices[s_] := Interpolation[
Thread[{s, Range@Length@s-1}],
InterpolationOrder->0,
"ExtrapolationHandler" -> {Evaluate[Length[s]]&, "WarningMessage" -> False}
]f = findIndices[S];
tst = RandomReal[{.5, 10}, 10^6];
f[tst]; //AbsoluteTiming
I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]
