plotting - ListLogLogPlot with ErrorBars


I have the following data consisting of x, y pairs and errors of y:


dataWithError = {{0.0333333, 0.0000122672, 0.00000173485}, {0.05, 0.0000371462, 
0.00000448037}, {0.0666667, 0.0000697768, 0.00000748151},
{0.0833333, 0.000108625, 0.000010837}, {0.1, 0.000147595,

0.0000136051}, {0.116667, 0.000186599, 0.0000161483},
{0.133333, 0.000221451, 0.0000179078}, {0.15, 0.000253062, 0.0000192494}};

I can plot the data with error bars with:


ErrorListPlot[dataWithError, Joined -> True, PlotRange -> Full]

The result is:

I need a ListLogLogPlot with error bars (both axes have to be logarithmic). How can that be done?



Answer




You can always perform coordinate transformation yourself. There is nothing so special about LogLogPlot. You have to apply Log to your points and plot it with regular ErrorListPlot. Keep in mind that your error bar won't be symmetric in log-log coordinates. After that you have to draw ticks according to your new scale.


This can be overkill for log-log case, but it gives you generic algorithm how to torture your axes any way you want.


Needs["ErrorBarPlots`"]

plotrange={Floor@Log10@Min[#],Ceiling@Log10@Max[#]}&@dataWithError[[All,#]]&/@{1,2};
logData={{Log10[#[[1]]],Log10[#[[2]]]},ErrorBar[Log10[1+0.5#]&/@{-#[[3]]/#[[2]],#[[3]]/#[[2]]} ] }&/@dataWithError;
xticks = {#,Superscript[10,#]}&/@Range[#1,#2,1]&@@plotrange[[1]];
yticks = {#,Superscript[10,#]}&/@Range[#1,#2,1]&@@plotrange[[2]];
{xt,yt}=#~Join~({#,""}&/@Flatten[(#[[1]]+Log10[{2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}])&/@#])&/@{xticks,yticks};


ErrorListPlot[logData, Joined -> True, PlotRange->plotrange,FrameTicks->{{yt,None},{xt,None}},Frame->True,Axes->False]

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...

How to remap graph properties?

Graph objects support both custom properties, which do not have special meanings, and standard properties, which may be used by some functions. When importing from formats such as GraphML, we usually get a result with custom properties. What is the simplest way to remap one property to another, e.g. to remap a custom property to a standard one so it can be used with various functions? Example: Let's get Zachary's karate club network with edge weights and vertex names from here: http://nexus.igraph.org/api/dataset_info?id=1&format=html g = Import[ "http://nexus.igraph.org/api/dataset?id=1&format=GraphML", {"ZIP", "karate.GraphML"}] I can remap "name" to VertexLabels and "weights" to EdgeWeight like this: sp[prop_][g_] := SetProperty[g, prop] g2 = g // sp[EdgeWeight -> (PropertyValue[{g, #}, "weight"] & /@ EdgeList[g])] // sp[VertexLabels -> (# -> PropertyValue[{g, #}, "name"]...
