- lattpy.utils.min_dtype(a, signed=True)[source]
Returns the minimum required dtype to store the given values.
- Parameters:
- aarray_like
One or more values for determining the dtype. Should contain the maximal expected values.
- signedbool, optional
If True the dtype is forced to be signed. The default is True.
- Returns:
- dtypedtype
The required dtype.
- lattpy.utils.chain(items, cycle=False)[source]
Creates a chain between items
- Parameters:
- itemsSequence
items to join to chain
- cyclebool, optional
cycle to the start of the chain if True, default: False
- Returns:
- chain: list
chain of items
- lattpy.utils.create_lookup_table(array, dtype=<class 'numpy.uint8'>)[source]
Converts the given array to an array of indices linked to the unique values.
- Parameters:
- arrayarray_like
- dtypeint or np.dtype, optional
Optional data-type for storing the indices of the unique values. By default np.uint8 is used, since it is assumed that the input-array has only a few unique values.
- Returns:
- valuesnp.ndarray
The unique values occuring in the input-array.
- indicesnp.ndarray
The corresponding indices in the same shape as the input-array.
- lattpy.utils.frmt_num(num, dec=1, unit='', div=1000.0)[source]
Returns a formatted string of a number.
- Parameters:
- numfloat
The number to format.
- decint, optional
Number of decimals. The default is 1.
- unitstr, optional
Optional unit suffix. By default no unit-strinmg is used.
- divfloat, optional
The divider used for units. The default is 1000.
- Returns:
- num_str: str
- lattpy.utils.frmt_time(seconds, short=False, width=0)[source]
Returns a formated string for a given time in seconds.
- Parameters:
- secondsfloat
Time value to format
- shortbool, optional
Flag if short representation should be used.
- widthint, optional
Optional minimum length of the returned string.
- Returns:
- time_str: str
