output formatting - Differently colored edges of same direction in a graph?


When I try to color edges in a graph that point to different vertices, it works properly:


Graph[{Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Red], Style[DirectedEdge[2, 3], Blue]}]


enter image description here



However, if I try to give different colors to two edges that involve the same vertices, it does not seem to work properly:



Graph[{Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Red], Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Blue]}]


enter image description here



We see that only one of the colors is registered. How should I apply the coloring properly in this case?



Answer



Modifying the answer in this Q/A:


styles={Red, Blue, Green, Orange};
i=1;

Graph[{a->b,a->b,a->b, a->b}, EdgeShapeFunction->({styles[[i++]],Arrow@#}&)]

Update: dealing with more general cases


Needs["GraphUtilities`"]

styles1 = {Red, Blue, Green, Orange};
styles2 = { Purple, Cyan, Pink};
labels1 = {"A", "B", "C", "D"};
labels2 = { "E", "F", "G"};


Module[{i=1,j=1,i2,j2}, Graph[{a->b,a->b,a->b, a->b, a->c,c->a,b->c,b->c,b->c, b->a},
EdgeShapeFunction->{(a->b)->({styles1[[i2 = i++]], Text[labels1[[i2]],
LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]], Arrow@#}&),
(b->c)->({styles2[[j2 = j++]], Text[labels2[[j2]],
LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]], Arrow@#}&)}, VertexLabels->"Name"]]

Mathematica graphics


Module[{i = 1, j = 1, i2, j2}, 
Graph[Join[(Property[#, EdgeShapeFunction -> ({styles1[[i2 = i++]],

Text[labels1[[i2]], LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]],
Arrow@#} &)] & /@ {a -> b, a -> b, a -> b}),
(Property[#, EdgeShapeFunction -> ({styles2[[j2 = j++]],
Text[labels2[[j2]], LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]],
Arrow@#} &)] & /@ {e -> b, e -> b, e -> b}), {a -> e, e -> c, c -> e, a -> c}],
VertexLabels -> "Name",
EdgeStyle -> {(a -> c) -> Dashed, (a -> b) -> DotDashed ,
(e -> c) -> Directive[Dotted, Green]},
ImageSize -> 500] ]

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}]
