dynamic - How to compute values only if input fields are filled?


In the following code how can I keep the DynamicModule from computing values if the input values are not all filled? If I don't specify default values it will show the code used to compute the values instead of blank values.


Thanks.


backingAgreementValue[w_, σ_, 
  a_] := σ /Sqrt[2 π] Exp[ -(w - a)^2/(2 σ^2)] + 
  w CDF[NormalDistribution[0, 1], (w - a)/σ]

DynamicModule[{w = 40, σ = 600, a = 0, n = 100, horseCut = 0.5,
   backingValue, expectation, backerValue, horseValue, 
  horseExpectationPercentage, values}, 

 Deploy[Style[
   Panel[Grid[
     Transpose[{{Style["Mean", Blue], 
        Style["Standard Deviation", Blue], Style["Threshold", Blue], 
        Style["N", Blue], Style["Player Cut", Blue], 
        Style["Backing Agreement Value", Orange], 
        Style["Expectation", Orange], Style["Player Value", Orange], 
        Style["Player Expectation Percentage", Orange], 
        Style["Backer Value", Darker[Magenta]]}, {InputField[
         Dynamic[w], Number], InputField[Dynamic[σ], Number], 

        InputField[Dynamic[a], Number], 
        InputField[Dynamic[n], Number], 
        InputField[Dynamic[horseCut], Number],
        Dynamic[
         Style[backingValue = 
           backingAgreementValue[expectation, σ Sqrt[n], a] // 
            N, If[backingValue >= 0, Darker[Green], Red]]],
        Dynamic[
         Style[expectation = w n // N, 
          If[expectation >= 0, Darker[Green], Red]]],

        Dynamic[
         Style[horseValue = horseCut  backingValue // N, 
          If[horseValue >= 0, Darker[Green], Red]]],
        Dynamic[
         Style[horseExpectationPercentage = 
           horseCut backingValue/expectation // N, 
          If[horseExpectationPercentage >= 0.5, Darker[Green], Red]]],
        Dynamic[
         Style[backerValue = (expectation -  
              backingValue + (1 - horseCut) backingValue) // N, 

          If[backerValue >= 0, Darker[Green], Red]]]}}], 
     Alignment -> Left], ImageMargins -> 10], 
   DefaultOptions -> {InputField -> {ContinuousAction -> True, 
       FieldSize -> {{5, 30}, {1, Infinity}}}}]], 
 SaveDefinitions -> True]

Answer



Wrap a test around the visible code. If the test passes then display the calculation otherwise display a e.g. spacer:


If[NumberQ[σ]&&NumberQ[n]& ...etc,
Dynamic[Style[
  backingValue = 

   backingAgreementValue[expectation, σ Sqrt[n], a] // N, 
  If[backingValue >= 0, Darker[Green], Red]]],
Spacer[0]
]

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}]
