Convenience imports and scientific functions.
Project description
fxy
Mnemonic imports and command fx with parameters to import libraries often used in research.
n (NUMERIC MATH)
s (SYMBOLIC MATH)
a (ACTUARIAL: STATISTICS & SCIENCE)
l (MACHINE LEARNING)
p (PLOTING).
Introduction
The people who come from tools like Maple, Matlab, Mathematica, and R, may find that Python requires a lot of mathematical imports just to start doing basic stuff. So, I tried to simplify it – simply pip install fxy, and you’ve got a command fx, that starts Python with mpmath stuff pre-imported: so, you can start using Python like a calculator right away. If you need more, like symbolics, or statistics, or machine learning, – these things are import-able with extra parameter, e.g., fx -s for isympy (shorter than typing isympy), or just by running import import shortcuts described below:
>>> from fxy.n import * # Numeric: from mpmath import * >>> from fxy.s import * # Symbolic: import sympy; exec(sympy.interactive.session.preexec_source) >>> from fxy.a import * # Actuarial: numpy, np, pandas, pd, xarray, xr, scipy, sp, scipy.stats, st, statsmodels, sm, statsmodels.formula.api, smf >>> from fxy.l import * # Learning: sklearn, xgboost, xgb >>> from fxy.p import * # Plotting: matplotlib.pyplot, plt, matplotlib, seaborn, sns
Installation
pip3 install fxy to get the import shortcuts.
pip3 install fxy[main] to install all libraries except xgboost,
pip3 install fxy[all] (slow) to install all libraries for which the shortcuts exist.
Usage
The package defines the fx command, if you just want Python with something, run:
$ fx -i[n|s|a|p|l] - plain Python (i: “IPython off”)
$ fx -[n|s|a|p|l] - with IPython
$ fx -b[n|s|a|p|l] - with BPython and comments
Examples
In command line
Try various imports:
$ fx -b – n(mpmath) and plotting included.
$ fx -bap– n(mpmath) + a(numpy, pandas, xarray, scipy, statsmodels), p(matplotlib, seaborn)
$ fx -bsap – n(mpmath) + s(isympy) + a(numpy, pandas, xarray, scipy, statsmodels), p(matplotlib, seaborn)
$ fx -bsalp – n(mpmath) + s(isympy) + a(numpy, pandas, xarray, scipy, statsmodels), l(sklearn.* as sklearn, xgboost as xgb), p(matplotlib, seaborn)
Just remove the b in the command to have them imported silently into IPython.
Within notebooks and Python code
NB: This package does not assume versions of the imported packages, it just performs the basic imports, assuming that those namespaces within those packages will exist for a long time to come, so it is dependencies-agnostic.
# Numeric (mpmath.*) >>> from fxy.n import * (394 functions) >>> pi <pi: 3.14159~> # Symbolic (sympy.*) >>> from fxy.s import * (915 functions, and "isympy" imports) >>> f = x**4 - 4*x**3 + 4*x**2 - 2*x + 3 >>> f.subs([(x, 2), (y, 4), (z, 0)]) -1 >>> plot(f) # Actuarial (np: numpy, pd: pandas, sm: statsmodels.api, sp: scipy, st: scipy.stats, smf: statsmodels.formula.api, statsmodels) >>> from fxy.a import * >>> df = pandas.DataFrame({'x': numpy.arange(10), 'y': np.random.random(10)}) >>> df.sum() x 45.000000 y 4.196558 dtype: float64 # Learning (sklearn.* as sklearn) >>> from fxy.l import * >>> X = [[0], [1], [2], [3]] >>> y = [0, 0, 1, 1] >>> neigh = sklearn.neighbors.KNeighborsClassifier(n_neighbors=3) >>> neigh.fit(X, y) >>> print(neigh.predict([[1.1]])) [0] >>> print(neigh.predict_proba([[0.9]])) [[0.66666667 0.33333333]] # Plotting (plt, matplotlib) >>> from fxy.p import * >>> plt.plot([1, 2, 3, 4]) >>> plt.ylabel('some numbers') >>> plt.show() <image>
Suggestions
If you use some initialization commonly, we suggest adding ~/.zshrc, something like, for example:
fxy() { fx -ap }
If you are using vim with tmux with slimux, you may find it useful to something else to ~/.zshrc:
fxy() { if [ -n "$1" ] then mkdir -p "/home/mindey/Projects/Research/mindey/$1" cd "/home/mindey/Projects/Research/mindey/$1" touch main.py tmux new -s "$1-research" 'zsh' \; send-keys "vim main.py" Enter \; splitw -hd "python3 -mvenv .env && . .env/bin/activate; fx -bap" else echo "No project name selected." fi }
This way, running something like fxy project-name makes a project folder and starts Python environment with packages fx -bap (BPython + Acturial + Plotting).
Conclusion
This package may be useful for computing basic things, doing things to emulate Python’s capabilities in computational and symbolic mathematics and statistics, so this package will introduce just convenient imports so that one doesn’t have to configure Jupyter notebook profile, to have those imports every time, and works well as an on-the-go calculator.
I often collect convenient computations and functions in various fields, like what WolframAlpha does cataloguing implementations of advanced computations to be reused.
