plotting - How to change the axis on this ListPlot?


My bifurcation diagram almost works, but I can't figure out how to replace the point number on the horizontal axis with the x coordinate from my calculation. I have tried a whole bunch of things that fail in various ways. The code is below. Help would be greatly appreciated.



bifurcation


z[0, c_] := c;
z[n_, c_] := z[n - 1, c]^2 + c;
zSeries[n_, len_, c_] := Module[{ser},
   ser = {z[n, c]};
   Do[AppendTo[ser, ser[[i]]^2 + c], {i, 1, len - 1}];
   ser];
ListPlot[Transpose[Table[zSeries[999, 100, x], {x, -2, .25, .0001}]], PlotStyle -> PointSize[Tiny]]

If I change the zSeries module to give each point its own x value, it gets VERY slow.



zSeries[n_, len_, c_] := Module[{ser},
   ser = {{c, z[n, c]}};
   Do[AppendTo[ser, {c, ser[[i]]^2 + c}], {i, 1, len - 1}];
   ser];

Answer



To illustrate my comment, is that what you had in mind?


ListPlot[Transpose[Table[zSeries[999, 100, x], {x, -2, .25, .0001}]], 
    PlotStyle -> PointSize[Tiny], DataRange -> {-2, .25}]

Addendum: Timing


The OP in his answer provides revised code,


z[0, c_] := c;
z[n_, c_] := z[n - 1, c]^2 + c;
ListPlot[Catenate[Table[{x, #} & /@ NestList[#^2 + x &, z[999, x], 100], 
    {x, -2, .25, .0001}]], PlotStyle -> PointSize[Tiny]]

which is much faster than the earlier code, requiring 64 sec (AbsoluteTiming) on my PC to generate the plot. Still, it seemed to me that further improvements in time could be achieved. Table requires 37 sec to generate the array, leaving 27 sec for ListPlot itself. Because as many as 100 duplicate points are plotted for x > -1.4, applying DeleteDuplicates offers an obvious savings. (It, like Catenate, takes negligible time.) Using FixedPointList instead of NestList also saves a bit of time for x > -.76, but only a few seconds, because the reduced list generation is largely offset by the test for a fixed point. Together,


ListPlot[Catenate[Table[{x, #} & /@ DeleteDuplicates[
   FixedPointList[#^2 + x &, z[999, x], 100]], {x, -2, .25, .0001}]], 

   PlotStyle -> PointSize[Tiny], PlotRange -> All]

requires only about 41 sec. The other opportunity for savings involves replacing z[999, x], which takes some 31 sec in all, by the equivalent Nest[#^2 + x &, x, 999],


ListPlot[Catenate[Table[{x, #} & /@ DeleteDuplicates[
    FixedPointList[#^2 + x &, Evaluate[Nest[#^2 + x &, x, 999]], 100]], 
    {x, -2, .25, .0001}]], PlotStyle -> PointSize[Tiny], PlotRange -> All]

which reduces total time to 11 sec, a significant improvement. (Using FixedPoint instead of Nest offers no further advantage.)

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

equation solving - Invert and fit implicitly defined curve

I need to fit an implicitly defined curve. I thought I could get some data out of Solve , and then using FindFit . Therefore, I would like to find the relation the parametric curve defined by $F(x,y)=0$: Solve[-(1/2) + 1/2 (0.41202 BesselK[0, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]] + (0.101483 x BesselK[1, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]])/Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]) == 0, y] But I can't get an output: Solve was unable to solve the system with inexact coefficients or the system obtained by direct rationalization of inexact numbers present in the system. Since many of the methods used by Solve require exact input, providing Solve with an exact version of the system may help. >> Edit: In particular, I would like to fit the data coming from the curve with the expression of another curve, and not with a function $f(x)$. In particular, since this clearly looks like a cardioid , I would like it to fit to something like it. What other strategies could I try?

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
