bugs - Problem with Classify Documentation Center page



Bug introduced in 10.0 and fixed in 10.2




Every time I try to open the "Neat Examples" tab on the documentation center page for the function Classify Mma gets stuck showing "Progress Dialog". The problem persists after disabling dynamic evaluation.


Can someone confirm this problem?


OS: Linux
Mma ver: 10.0.1



Answer



I confirm (Windows 7 x64, MMa 10.0.1). After opening the "Neat Examples" tab in the Documentation Center page for Classify MathKernel.exe loads HUGE amount of data from pacletserver2.wolfram.com. After 2 hours of waiting with hanging Mathematica FrontEnd I found in the



%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Mathematica\Paclets\Temporary




directory more than 600 files with names ranging from "Classifier_Language-1.0.09441.paclet" to "Classifier_Language-1.0.09441000.paclet" most of which have file size about 4.42 Mb. The overall size of the directory is now 2.48 Gb and keeps growing. The FrontEnd still does not respond.


UPDATE


I have found that all the files grow only up to the size of 4643101 bytes and are exactly identical on this final stage (I have checked this with Windows' fc /B command-line tool)! Up to the moment I have already about 800 files and it looks like the process will not stop until all the 1000 identical files (names range from "Classifier_Language-1.0.09441.paclet" to "Classifier_Language-1.0.09441000.paclet") will be loaded from pacletserver2.wolfram.com. It is clearly a bug.


UPDATE 2


After several hours of the above-described "work" Mathematica has crashed. The files in the folder are still here and were not deleted after restarting Mathematica. Their overall size is 3.44 Gb.

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...

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}]
