graphics - How to compile Heike's winding number function?


Heike gave the following function for winding number:


winding[poly_, pt_] :=  
Round[(Total@Mod[(# - RotateRight[#]) &@(ArcTan @@ (pt - #) & /@ poly),
2 Pi, -Pi]/2./Pi)]

I attempted to compile it as follows:


winding2 := Compile[{{poly, _Real, 2}, {pt, _Real, 1}},   
Round[(Total@Mod[(# - RotateRight[#]) &@(ArcTan @@ (pt - #) & /@ poly),

2 Pi, -Pi]/2./Pi)]]

Applied to the following simple problem, the compiled version gives error messages:


poly = {{0., 0.}, {10., 0.}, {10., 6.}, {0, 6}, {0., 0.}};
pt = {5., 3.};
winding2[poly, pt]

The error messages include:


Compile::cpapot: Compilation of ArcTan@@(ptCompile`GetElement[poly,System`Private`CompileSymbol[0]]) 
is not supported for the function argument ArcTan. The only function arguments supported are

Times, Plus, or List. Evaluation will use the uncompiled function. >>
CompiledFunction::cfse: Compiled expression 6.283185307179586` should be a machine-size integer. >>
CompiledFunction::cfex: Could not complete external evaluation at instruction 1;
proceeding with uncompiled evaluation. >>

Where am I going wrong?



Answer



First, if you use := in your assignment, then the compilation is not done instantly but every time you call winding2. That's btw the reason why you get the error message when you try to call the function because it is not compiled until then and the error is a compilation error.


Secondly, as the error messages sais, @@ can only be used with Times, Plus or List, so you have to expand this part:


winding2 = 

Compile[{{poly, _Real, 2}, {pt, _Real, 1}},
Round[Total@Mod[# - RotateRight[#] &@(ArcTan[#[[1]], #[[2]]] &@
(Transpose@poly - pt)), 2 Pi, -Pi]/(2. Pi)]
]

Seems to work pretty smoothly

And here the code:


winding2 = 
Compile[{{poly, _Real, 2}, {pt, _Real, 1}},

0 != Round[
Total@Mod[# -
RotateRight[#] &@(ArcTan[#[[1]], #[[2]]] &@(Transpose@
poly - pt)), 2 Pi, -Pi]/(2. Pi)],
CompilationTarget -> "C", RuntimeOptions -> "Speed"];

MeshStyle -> RGBColor[88/255, 22/51, 39/85]]},
DynamicModule[{pt = {0, 1}, polyPts},
polyPts =
gr[[1, 1, #]] & /@
Flatten[Cases[gr, Polygon[pts__] :> Sequence[pts], Infinity], 1];
LocatorPane[Dynamic[pt],
Dynamic@Show[gr,
Graphics[{Opacity[.5], RGBColor[38/255, 139/255, 14/17],
Polygon[Pick[polyPts, winding2[#, pt] & /@ polyPts]]}]]]]]

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-...

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...
