class npsolve.legacy.legacy_utils.Timeseries(xs, ys)

Bases: object

A utility class to specify values from time-series data

Parameters:

  • xs (ndarray) – A 1D array of x values. Must be monotonically increasing.

  • ys (ndarray) – A 1D array of y values

Usage:

The Timeseries class is callable. It interpolates values smoothly between the inputs using splines. It offers the 1st integral to the 3rd derivative of values.

timeseries = Timeseries(xs, ys) # Create
timeseries(5) # Value at x=5
timeseries(5, -1) # 1st integral (antiderivative) at x=5
timeseries(5, 0) # Value at x=5
timeseries(5, 1) # 1st derivative at x=5
timeseries(5, 2) # 2nd derivative at x=5
timeseries(5, 3) # 3rd derivative at x=5

Note

Use Timeseries.from_csv to generate values from a csv file.

classmethod from_csv(fname, x_col=0, y_col=1, skip_header=0, delimiter=',', **kwargs)

Create a Timeseries from csv data

Parameters:

  • fname (str) – The filename

  • x_col (int) – The column index of the x data (0 is the first column)

  • y_col (int) – The column index of the y data

  • skip_header (int) – [Optional] Number of header rows to skip. Defaults to 0.

  • delimiter (str) – [Optional] Delimiter. Defaults to ‘,’.

  • **kwargs – [Optional] Other keyword arguments passed to numpy.genfromtxt.

get(x, der=0, ext=3)

Get an interpolated value

Parameters:

  • x (float, ndarray) – The x value(s).

  • der (int) – [Optional] The derivative number. Defaults to 0.

  • ext (int) – [Optional] What to do outside the range of xs. See scipy.interpolate.splev for details. Defaults to 3, which means to return the boundary values.

Returns:

The y value(s)

Return type:

ndarray
