Jul 26, 2015 · the append works but requires a little extra processing. np's piecewise works fine. could just do this for any function: import math import matplotlib as plt xs=[] xs=[x/10 for x in range(-50,50)] #counts in tenths from -5 to 5 plt.plot(xs,[f(x) for x in xs])

Apr 1, 2015 · To add a bit of context, spline is a function defined piecewise by polynomials. In your case, you are looking for a linear spline which is defined by k=1 in UnivariateSpline . Also, s=0.5 is a smoothing factor which indicates how good the fit should be (check out the documentation for more info on it).

Nov 18, 2020 · Following is the function I want to implement in python. I am getting Type Errors when defining a function. I tried defining using numpy.piecewise function object and also using just elif commands as a definition. I want to be able to then evaluate this function at different points as well as expressions like f(X-1) etc. This is my code:

Apr 26, 2023 · As you can see, the function only returns a result for the first value in args. Side note: In python, return is a keyword, not a function or anything that is called; so while writing return(0) etc. works, you would normally write return 0 …

Oct 8, 2014 · In each call to np.piecewise, each function in funclist (the function parts) is called exactly once, with a numpy array consisting of all values where the appropriate condition is true. Thus, these lambda's are called in a numpy-optimised way.

Jun 21, 2012 · Ideally I need a piecewise function that consists of two linear function, where the two slopes m1,m2 and the breakpoint p are fitting parameters, e.g. m1x+t1 for x<p and m2x+t2 for x>p. – cass Commented Jun 21, 2012 at 3:39

Another option would be to use the matplotlib package in Python. You can create a function f(n, x) that evaluates the function rather easily, and then evaluate it for a set of points. The resulting plot commands are very MATLAB-like, so if you know MATLAB, the work in …

Nov 18, 2022 · To define a piecewise function, I usually use a chained sequence of numpy.where. First, the domain for the independent variable, then the conditions and the analytical expression, with a difference for the last where, as explained in the docs.

Mar 16, 2016 · I am new to python and trying to 3d plot a piecewise function. I am trying to 3d plot the 'mainformula' function below on the z-axis as it varies with x and y ranging from 0 to 10, and constant = 1. But I can't quite seem to figure out the plotting method here.

Jan 13, 2017 · For completeness, I'll point out that fitting a piecewise linear function does not require np.piecewise: any such function can be constructed out of absolute values, using a multiple of np.abs(x-x0) for each bend. The following produces a good fit to the data:
