Use a dope vector to access arbitrary axial slices of a multidimensional array?

Definition General array slicing can be implemented (whether or not built into the language) by referencing every array through a dope vector or descriptor — a record that contains the address of the first array element, and then the range of each index and the corresponding coefficient in the indexing formula. This technique also allows … Read more

Reversing a list slice in python

The syntax is always [start:end:step] so if you go backwards your start needs to be greater than the end. Also remember that it includes start and excludes end, so you need to subtract 1 after you swap start and end. l[5:2:-1]= [6, 5, 4] l[4:1:-1]= [5, 4, 3]

Slicing multiple ranges of columns in Pandas, by list of names

I think you need numpy.r_ for concanecate positions of columns, then use iloc for selecting: print (df.iloc[:, np.r_[1:3, 6:len(df.columns)]]) and for second approach subset by list: print (df[years_month]) Sample: df = pd.DataFrame({‘2000-1’:[1,3,5], ‘2000-2’:[5,3,6], ‘2000-3’:[7,8,9], ‘2000-4’:[1,3,5], ‘2000-5’:[5,3,6], ‘2000-6’:[7,8,9], ‘2000-7’:[1,3,5], ‘2000-8’:[5,3,6], ‘2000-9’:[7,4,3], ‘A’:[1,2,3], ‘B’:[4,5,6], ‘C’:[7,8,9]}) print (df) 2000-1 2000-2 2000-3 2000-4 2000-5 2000-6 2000-7 2000-8 2000-9 A … Read more

How can I slice each element of a numpy array of strings?

Here’s a vectorized approach – def slicer_vectorized(a,start,end): b = a.view((str,1)).reshape(len(a),-1)[:,start:end] return np.fromstring(b.tostring(),dtype=(str,end-start)) Sample run – In [68]: a = np.array([‘hello’, ‘how’, ‘are’, ‘you’]) In [69]: slicer_vectorized(a,1,3) Out[69]: array([‘el’, ‘ow’, ‘re’, ‘ou’], dtype=”|S2″) In [70]: slicer_vectorized(a,0,3) Out[70]: array([‘hel’, ‘how’, ‘are’, ‘you’], dtype=”|S3″) Runtime test – Testing out all the approaches posted by other authors that I … Read more

How to delete an element from a Slice in Golang

Order matters If you want to keep your array ordered, you have to shift all of the elements at the right of the deleting index by one to the left. Hopefully, this can be done easily in Golang: func remove(slice []int, s int) []int { return append(slice[:s], slice[s+1:]…) } However, this is inefficient because you … Read more

How do I reverse a slice in go?

The standard library does not have a built-in function for reversing a slice. Use a for loop to reverse a slice: for i, j := 0, len(s)-1; i < j; i, j = i+1, j-1 { s[i], s[j] = s[j], s[i] } Use type parameters to write a generic reverse function in Go 1.18 or … Read more
