Extracting matrix rows when one of its elements is part of a list (without a loop)


I have a matrix whose rows I want to extract based on whether the elements of one of its columns is a member of another vector (calling it the "comparison vector"). I would like to get better at using functional programming, and so I want to avoid using a loop, if it´s possible. I believe I have the right functions: Selectand MemberQ. But I can´t coerce MemberQ to compare the element of the matrix to each element of the comparison vector.


If there´s a duplicate answer, I´m willing to be lead to it (I´ve searched though)...


Addition to my question:


 mymatrix={{1, 1, -56}, {1, 2, 3.06}, {2, 0, -30.02}, {3, 1, -7.291}, {3, 2,1.93}, {4, 0, 0}, {5, 0, 0}, {5, 1, -356.4}, {6, 1, 9.945}, {7,0, -7.512}};


 compvector={1,2,6,7,11,12,16,17};

I would like to extract the rows of ´mymatrix´ based on whether the values of the first column of ´mymatrix´ are in ´compvector´.



Answer



New solution


Cases[mymatrix, {x_, _, _} /; MemberQ[compvector, x]]


{{1, 1, -56}, {1, 2, 3.06}, {2, 0, -30.02}, {6, 1, 9.945}, {7, 0, -7.512}}




I do not take credit for this solution, someone posted this here before me but in the confusion over what the problem was that person (whose name I do not remember) deleted his answer :(


Here's another answer that does not use Cases.


First let's define what columns are required to be in compvector, first and second for example:


required = {True, True, False}

Then


Select[mymatrix, And @@ (MemberQ[compvector, #] & /@ Pick[#, required]) &]



{{1, 1, -56}, {1, 2, 3.06}, {6, 1, 9.945}}



If the requirement is just that a specific column should exist, this can obviously be made a lot simpler. See aky's answer.


The complaint for the first version was that if there are many columns the pattern would also be very long, {x_,_,_,_ ...: this is not really true, one could write a short pattern to match such a list.


Old solution, not what the OP wants


First define some test data:


comparison = Range[10]


{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}




matrix = RandomInteger[100, {10, 5}]


{{46, 51, 84, 49, 52}, {12, 22, 7, 51, 56}, {74, 61, 9, 23, 93}, {97, 0, 23, 87, 78}, {23, 29, 83, 68, 21}, {79, 1, 25, 13, 84}, {23, 85,
35, 83, 83}, {2, 29, 50, 22, 88}, {34, 61, 91, 84, 29}, {60, 51, 96,
48, 68}}



The test:


Select[matrix, Length[Intersection[comparison, #]] > 0 &]



{{12, 22, 7, 51, 56}, {74, 61, 9, 23, 93}, {79, 1, 25, 13, 84}, {2,
29, 50, 22, 88}}

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

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}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1.
