vector

An infinite-dimensional vector package.

>>> from vector import vecadd
>>> vecadd((1, 2), (4, 5, 6))
(5, 7, 6)
>>> 
>>> from vector import Vector
>>> v = Vector((1, 2))
>>> w = Vector((4, 5, 6))
>>> v + w
Vector(5, 7, 6, ...)
>>> 
>>> from vector import vecnpadd
>>> vecnpadd((1, 2), ((3, 4, 5),
...                   (6, 7, 8)))
array([[4, 6, 5],
       [7, 9, 8]])

Installation

pip install git+https://github.com/goessl/vector.git

Usage

This package includes

  • general-purpose functions,
  • a clean class
  • improved numpy-routines to handle infinite-dimensional vectors. It operates on vectors of different lengths, treating them as infinite-dimensional by assuming that all components after the given ones are zero.

Functions

>>> from vector import vecadd
>>> a = (5, 6, 7)
>>> b = [2]
>>> c = range(4)
>>> vecadd(a, b, c)
(7, 7, 9, 3)

All functions accept sequences, most even single exhaustible iterables.

They return vectors as tuples.

The functions are type-independent. However, the data types used must support necessary scalar operations. For instance, for vector addition, components must be addable — this may include operations with padded integer zeros. Empty empty operations return zero vector (e.g. vecsum()==veczero) or integer zeros (e.g. vecdot(veczero, veczero)==int(0)).

Padding is done with int(0).

creation stuff

  • veczero = (): Zero vector.
  • vecbasis(i, c=1): Return the i-th basis vector times c. The retured value is a tuple with i integer zeros followed by c.
  • vecrand(n): Return a random vector of n uniform coefficients in [0, 1[.
  • vecrandn(n, normed=True, mu=0, sigma=1): Return a random vector of n normal distributed coefficients.

sequence stuff

  • veceq(v, w): Return if two vectors are equal.
  • vectrim(v, tol=1e-9): Remove all trailing near zero (<=tol) coefficients.
  • vecround(v, ndigits=None): Round all coefficients to the given precision.

Hilbert space stuff

  • vecabsq(v): Return the sum of absolute squares of the coefficients.
  • vecabs(v): Return the Euclidean/L2-norm.
  • vecdot(v, w): Return the inner product of two vectors without conjugation.

vector space stuff

  • vecpos(v): Return the vector with the unary positive operator applied.
  • vecneg(v): Return the vector with the unary negative operator applied.
  • vecadd(*vs): Return the sum of vectors.
  • vecsub(v, w): Return the difference of two vectors.
  • vecmul(a, v): Return the product of a scalar and a vector.
  • vectruediv(v, a): Return the true division of a vector and a scalar.
  • vecfloordiv(v, a): Return the floor division of a vector and a scalar.

elementwise stuff

  • vechadamard(*vs): Return the elementwise product of vectors.
  • vechadamardtruediv(v, w): Return the elementwise true division of two vectors.
  • vechadamardfloordiv(v, w): Return the elementwise floor division of two vectors.
  • vechadamardmod(v, w): Return the elementwise mod of two vectors.

Class

The immutable Vector class wraps all the mentioned functions into a tidy package, making them easier to use by enabling interaction through operators.

Its coefficients are internally stored as a tuple in the coef attribute and therefore zero-indexed.

Vector operations return the same type (type(v+w)==type(v)) so the class can easily be extended (to e.g. a polynomial class).

initialisation stuff

  • Vector(i): Create a new vector with the given coefficients or the i-th basis vector if an integer i is given.
  • Vector.rand(n): Create a random vector of n uniform coefficients in [0, 1[.
  • Vector.randn(n, normed=True, mu=0, sigma=1)): Create a random vector of n normal distributed coefficients.
  • Vector.ZERO: Zero vector.
>>> from vector import Vector
>>> Vector((1, 2, 3))
Vector(1, 2, 3, ...)
>>> Vector.gauss(3)
Vector(-0.5613820142699765, -0.028308921297709365, 0.8270724508948077, ...)
>>> Vector(3)
Vector(0, 0, 0, 1, ...)

container and sequence stuff

  • len(v): Return the number of set coefficients.
  • v[key]: Return the indexed coefficient or coefficients. Not set coefficients default to 0.
  • iter(v): Return an iterator over the set coefficients.
  • v == w: Return if of same type with same coefficients.
  • v << i: Return a vector with coefficients shifted to lower indices.
  • v >> i: Return a vector with coefficients shifted to higher indices.
  • v.trim(tol=1e-9): Remove all trailing near zero (abs<=tol) coefficients.
  • v.round(ndigits=None): Round all coefficients to the given precision.

Hilbert space stuff

  • v.absq(): Return the sum of absolute squares of the coefficients.
  • abs(v): Return the Euclidean/L2-norm. Return the square root of vecabsq.
  • v @ w: Return the inner product of two vectors without conjugation.

vector space stuff

  • v + w: Return the vector sum.
  • v - w: Return the vector difference.
  • v * a: Return the scalar product.
  • v / a: Return the scalar true division.
  • v // a: Return the scalar floor division.
  • v % a: Return the elementwise mod with a scalar.

elementwise stuff

  • v.hadamard(w): Return the elementwise product with another vector.
  • v.hadamardtruediv(w): Return the elementwise true division with another vector.
  • v.hadamardfloordiv(w): Return the elementwise floor division with another vector.
  • v.hadamardmod(w): Return the elementwise mod with another vector.

numpy-routines

>>> from vector import vecnpadd
>>> vecnpadd((1, 2), ((3, 4, 5),
...                   (6, 7, 8)))
array([[4, 6, 5],
       [7, 9, 8]])

numpy-version of the functions are also provided, to many vectors at once. They behave like the ones in numpy.polynomial.polynomial, but also work on 2D-arrays and broadcast to multiple dimensions like the usual numpy operations (but adjust the shapes accordingly).

vecnpzero is np.array([0]) like numpy.polynomial.polynomial.polyzero, not veczero=() (empty tuple, no zero coefficient left) like in the functions and class above.

Padding is done with numpy.int64 zeros.

Creation routines have a dimension argument d. If left to None, the returned values are 1D, so a single vector. If given, the routines return a 2D-array representing mutiple vectors in rows.

creation stuff

  • vecnpzero(d=None): Return d zero vectors. The retured value is a (d, 1)-array of zeros if d is not None or [0] otherwise.
  • vecnpbasis(i, c=1, d=None): Return d many i-th basis vectors times c. The retured value is a (d, i+1)-array if d is not None or (i+1,) otherwise.
  • vecnprand(n, d=None): Return d random vectors of n uniform coefficients in [0, 1[. The retured value is a (d, n)-array if d is not None or (n,) otherwise.
  • vecnprandn(n, normed=True, d=None): Return d random vectors of n normal distributed coefficients. The retured value is a (d, n)-array if d is not None or (n,) otherwise.

sequence stuff

  • vecnpeq(v, w): Return if two vectors are equal.
  • vecnptrim(v, tol=1e-9): Remove all trailing near zero (abs(v_i)<=tol) coefficients.
  • (numpy.round already exists)

Hilbert space stuff

  • vecnpabsq(v): Return the sum of absolute squares of the coefficients.
  • vecnpabs(v): Return the Euclidean/L2-norm.
  • vecnpdot(v, w): Return the inner product of two vectors without conjugation.

vector space stuff

  • vecnpadd(*vs): Return the sum of vectors.
  • vecnpsub(v, w): Return the difference of two vectors.

profiling

For most functions a performance comparison between different approaches has been made. The results can be found in profiling.ipynb.
