badic 0.0.9

Prerequisites

Installing the package badic requires a working Sage installation (with Cython and gcc).

It is recommanded (but not necessary) to install the dot command of Graphiz, in order to have nice plots of automata. If you want to use the functions draw_zoom() and user_draw() of BetaAdicSet, you need to install the SDL2 library (developpement version) in your system before installing the badic package. Both library can be installed in Linux with the command line

$ sudo apt install libsdl2-dev graphviz

Installation

The module is distributed on PyPI. You just need to run the following command:

$ sage -pip install badic [--user]

The –user option is optional and allows to install the module in your user space (and does not require administrator rights).

Remark: If you don’t have SSL installed, the previous command may not work. If it is the case, you can download the file badic-x.x.x.tar.gz from https://pypi.org/project/badic/#files Then, extract the files (you will get a folder badic-x.x.x), and then use the command

$ sage -pip install badic-x.x.x/ –user

(replace badic-x.x.x/ by the location of the folder extracted)

Check

After installing badic, check that it works by launching Sage and typing the following commands. You should get the same output as below.:

sage: from badic import *
sage: m = BetaAdicSet(1/(1+I), [0,1])
sage: m.plot()                  # this should plot the dragon fractal

sage: mi = m.intersection_words([0], [1]); mi
b-adic set with b root of x^2 - x + 1/2, and an automaton of 21 states and 2 letters
sage: mi.plot(nprec=8)          # this should plot a part of the boundary of the dragon fractal
sage: mi.critical_exponent()    # compute the Hausdorff dimension of the boundary of the dragon fractal
log(y)/log(1.414213562373095?) where y is the max root of x^3 - x^2 - 2, and 1.414213562373095? is root of x^2 - 2.
1.523627086202492

sage: from badic.beta_adic import *
sage: s = WordMorphism('a->ab,b->ca,c->a')  # define a substitution
sage: m = DumontThomas(s).mirror(); m    # take the corresponding beta-adic set
b-adic set with b root of x^3 - x^2 - x - 1, and an automaton of 3 states and 2 letters
sage: m.plot()      # should plot the Rauzy fractal of the substitution s
sage: m.draw_zoom() # permits to zoom in the Rauzy fractal (works only if SDL2 was installed)

sage: a = dag.AnyWord(['a','b']).concat(dag.Word('abca')); a    # define an automaton
DetAutomaton with 5 states and an alphabet of 3 letters
sage: a.plot()  # plot the automaton (to have a nice picture drawn with Graphviz,
                #                      install the dot command on your system before
                #                      installing the package badic)

Installing development version. Source code

The development webpage is https://gitlab.com/mercatp/badic

Assuming you have the program git on your computer, you can install the development version with the command:

$ sage -pip install git+https://gitlab.com/mercatp/badic [--user]
