gui construction - Variable number of controls in manipulate


i want to add a variable amount of variables to manipulate, but i got stuck at one point and can't figure out a solution (even after reading here for hours...).


I have a function (e.g. here a gaussian):


f[x_, a_,μ_,σ_] := a Exp[-(x - μ)^2/(2 σ^2)]/(Sqrt[2 Pi] σ)


and define now a sum of these function, which i would like to plot using manipulate:


n=3;
test = {A[#], μ[#], σ[#], m[#]} & /@ Range[n];
func = f[x, ##] & @@@ test;

Setting initial values like this:


initialvalues = {50, 5, 20, 50, 50, 40, 100, 80, 20};
values = Partition[initialvalues, n];
rangelow = values*0.7;

rangehigh = values*1.3;

Now i want to plot this, after setting initial values with manipulate, e.g. like this:


With[{func = func},
    Manipulate[
        Show[Plot[func, {x, 0, 100}, PlotRange -> All]],
    'List of manipulate arguments'
        ]
]


With a list like this:


testlist = 
 Flatten[{{{A[#], values[[#, 1]]}, rangelow[[#, 1]], 
  rangehigh[[#, 1]]}, {{μ[#], values[[#, 2]]}, 
  rangelow[[#, 2]], 
  rangehigh[[#, 2]]}, {{σ[#], values[[#, 3]]}, 
  rangelow[[#, 3]], rangehigh[[#, 3]]}} & /@ Range[n], 1]

But I can't figure out how to remove the outer bracketsand there should be a better solution.



Answer




One can slightly rewrite your code and obtain a nice Manipulate


f[x_, a_, μ_, σ_] := a Exp[-(x - μ)^2/(2 σ^2)]/(Sqrt[2 π] σ)

n = 3;
vars = Through@{a, μ, σ}@# & /@ Range[n];
func = f[x, ##] & @@@ vars;

values = {{50, 5, 20}, {50, 50, 40}, {100, 80, 20}};
rangelow = 0.7 values;
rangehigh = 1.3 values;


With[{func = func}, 
 Manipulate[Plot[func, {x, 0, 100}, PlotRange -> All], ##] & @@ ({{#, #2}, ##3} & @@@ 
    Flatten[{vars, values, rangelow, rangehigh}, {{2, 3}}])]

enter image description here


There is two basic techniques to inject a list of variables:



  • function[..., ##] & @@ variables

  • With[{vars = Sequence @@ variables}, function[..., vars]]

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...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

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-...
