linux - Install Mathematica 11.3 on 32bit Lubuntu 18.04 not work default to 64bit version


I'm recently installing Mathematica 11.3 on my 32bit Lubuntu 18.04.



The installer installs 64bit version of Mathematica in default, so I can not run the installed version.


Below is the error output of the installer:


WARNING: Failed to install WolframScript system integration.  See
/tmp/WolframScript-InstallErrors-8297 for more details.

But the error log file listed is empty when I cat it.


Below is the output when I run mathematica:


$ mathematica
can not find /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/11.3/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Binaries/Linux/Mathematica


There is not a directory named Linux, but a directory named Linux-x86-64.


After consulting the system requirement page , I'm sure that Mathematica 11.3 can run on 32bit Linux. But they only tested it on Ubuntu 12.04–17.10, not on Ubuntu 18.04.


So my question is:



  1. Is it possible that Mathematica 11.3 can not install correctly on 32bit Lubuntu 18.04?

  2. What compatibility library do I need to correctly install the 32bit version?

  3. Is there some option in the command line that I can use to choose the 32bit instead of the default 64bit version?


My system settings are as follows:


$ uname -a 

Linux **** 4.15.0-12-generic #13-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 8 06:23:34 UTC 2018 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux

$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version: core-9.20170808ubuntu1-noarch:security-9.20170808ubuntu1- noarch
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch)
Release: 18.04

Codename: bionic



Answer




As of version 11.3.0, support for 32-bit Linux has been discontinued.


Only 64-bit Linux is supported, and the system requirements page has now been updated to reflect that


http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/system-requirements.html


Additionally, I sent in a bug report since I believe the installer should have refused to run on a 32-bit system in the first place.

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}]

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1....
