plotting - Help with debugging my code



In order to descrive the multifractal behaviour of a set, Baumann provides a code based on the functions Dq and Tau, given below.


       Dq[p_List, r_List] := 
Block[{l1, l2, listrg = {}},(*----length of the lists---*)
l1 = Length[p];

l2 = Length[r];
If[l1 == l2,(*----variation of q and determination of D_q---*)
Do[gl1 = Sum[p[[j]]^q r[[j]]^((q - 1) Dfractal), {j, 1, l1}] - 1;
result = FindRoot[gl1 == 0, {Dfractal, -3, 3}];
result = -Dfractal /. result;
(*----collect the results in a list---*)
AppendTo[listrg, {q, result}], {q, -10, 10, .101}], Print[" "];
Print[" Lengths of lists are different!"];
listrg = {}];
listrg]


(*----calculate Tau---*)
Tau[result_list] :=
Block[{l1, listtau = {}},(*----lengths of the lists---*)
l1 = Length[result];
(*---calcultate Tau---*)
Do[AppendTo[
listtau, {result[[k, 1]],
result[[k, 2]] (1 - result[[k, 1]])}], {k, 1, l1}];
listtau];



p = {2/5, 2/5, 1/5};
r = {1/3, 1/3, 1/3};
ListDq = Dq[p, r];
ListLinePlot[ListDq, AxesLabel -> {"q", "Dq"}]
listTau = Tau[listDq];
ListLinePlot[listTau, Joined -> {True, False},
AxesLabel -> {"q", "\[Tau]"}, Prolog -> Thickness[0.001]]


The code above provides the plot of Dq but gives problems on Tau. In particular, the following errors are given:

Any ideas?



Answer



Two simple mistakes.


Tau[result_list] := should be Tau[result_List] :=


and


listTau = Tau[listDq]; should be listTau = Tau[ListDq];


Mathematica is case-sensitive. You must be careful about capitalization in identifiers.

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-...

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...

plotting - Magnifying Glass on a Plot

Although there is a trick in TEX magnifying glass but I want to know is there any function to magnifying glass on a plot with Mathematica ? For example for a function as Sin[x] and at x=Pi/6 Below, this is just a picture desired from the cited site. the image got huge unfortunately I don't know how can I change the size of an image here! Answer Insetting a magnified part of the original Plot A) by adding a new Plot of the specified range xPos = Pi/6; range = 0.2; f = Sin; xyMinMax = {{xPos - range, xPos + range}, {f[xPos] - range*GoldenRatio^-1, f[xPos] + range*GoldenRatio^-1}}; Plot[f[x], {x, 0, 5}, Epilog -> {Transparent, EdgeForm[Thick], Rectangle[Sequence @@ Transpose[xyMinMax]], Inset[Plot[f[x], {x, xPos - range, xPos + range}, Frame -> True, Axes -> False, PlotRange -> xyMinMax, ImageSize -> 270], {4., 0.5}]}, ImageSize -> 700] B) by adding a new Plot within a Circle mf = RegionMember[Disk[{xPos, f[xPos]}, {range, range/GoldenRatio}]] Show...
