I have the following code:
loop (d,
rnd(d)=uniformInt(1,nd)
);
I am going to use the integer numbers rnd(d) as an index of another set s(i). But for example when rnd(d)=34.000 however, it is integer, but s(34.000) has no valid index since, 34.000 is not 34 !! and GAMS shows a error message.
I don't know if #Lutz solution worked out for you. In case it did not, you can try the following:
First, it is not necessary to loop over the set d, just a simple:
rnd(d) = uniformInt(1,nd);
will suffice.
Next line can go like:
loop(d,
s(i)$(i.val = ord(d)) = . . .;
);
If you still have issues, then using #Lutz suggestion just append '*1.000' to 'ord(i)' and/or 'rnd(d)', whichever is giving you issues.
Is i an ordered set? If yes, you could use something like this:
loop(d,
s(i)$(ord(i)=rnd(d)) = ...;
)

I have a pretty simple example but I am just learning and can't find a solution for the following:
Given 2 sequences, being
<emp>10</emp>
<emp>42</emp>
<emp>100</emp>
and another sequence
<emp>10</emp>
<emp>42</emp>
Want i want to do is: Compare the sequences and return the part of sequences that is in the first, but not in the 2nd sequence, being <emp>100</emp> in this case.
I was thinking about an "except"-operation, but can't figure out how to make it working.
Help greatly appreciated.
The except expression operates on node identity, not node value. What I think you want is a value comparison over your sequences. For example:
let $seq1 :=
(<emp>10</emp>,
<emp>42</emp>,
<emp>100</emp>)
let $seq2 :=
(<emp>10</emp>,
<emp>42</emp>)
return $seq1[not(. = $seq2)]
=>
<emp>100</emp>
I'm trying to create a random number generator in Lua. I found out that I can just use math.random(1,100) to randomize a number between 1 and 100 and that should be sufficient.
But I don't really understand how to use the randomize number as variables in the script.
Tried this but of course it didn't work.
$randomCorr = math.random(1,100);
http.request_batch({
{"POST", "https://store.thestore.com/priceAndOrder/selectProduct", headers={["Content-Type"]="application/json;charset=UTF-8"}, data="{\"ChoosenPhoneModelId\":4,\"PricePlanId\":\"phone\",\"CorrelationId\":\"$randomCorr\",\"DeliveryTime\":\"1 vecka\",\"$$hashKey\":\"006\"},\"ChoosenAmortization\":{\"AmortizationLength\":0,\"ChoosenDataPackage\":{\"Description\":\"6 GB\",\"PricePerMountInKr\":245,\"DataAmountInGb\":6,\"$$hashKey\":\"00W\"},\"ChoosenPriceplan\":{\"IsPostpaid\":true,\"Title\":\"Fastpris\",\"Description\":\"Fasta kostnader till fast pris\",\"MonthlyAmount\":0,\"AvailiableDataPackages\":null,\"SubscriptionBinding\":0,\"$$hashKey\":\"00K\"}}", auto_decompress=true},
{"GET", "https://store.thestore.com/api/checkout/getproduct?correlationId=$randomCorr", auto_decompress=true},
})
In Lua, you can not start a variable name with $. This is where your main issue is at. Once the $ is removed from your code, we can easily see how to refer to variables in Lua.
randomCorr = math.random(100)
print("The random number:", randomCorr)
randomCorr = math.random(100)
print("New Random Number:", randomCorr)
Also, concatenation does not work the way you are implying it into your Http array. You have to concatenate the value in using .. in Lua
Take a look at the following example:
ran = math.random(100)
data = "{\""..ran.."\"}"
print(data)
--{"14"}
The same logic can be implied into your code:
data="{\"ChoosenPhoneModelId\":4,\"PricePlanId\":\"phone\",\"CorrelationId\":\""..randomCorr.."\",\"DeliveryTime\":\"1 vecka\",\"$$hashKey\":\"006\"},\"ChoosenAmortization\":{\"AmortizationLength\":0,\"ChoosenDataPackage\":{\"Description\":\"6 GB\",\"PricePerMountInKr\":245,\"DataAmountInGb\":6,\"$$hashKey\":\"00W\"},\"ChoosenPriceplan\":{\"IsPostpaid\":true,\"Title\":\"Fastpris\",\"Description\":\"Fasta kostnader till fast pris\",\"MonthlyAmount\":0,\"AvailiableDataPackages\":null,\"SubscriptionBinding\":0,\"$$hashKey\":\"00K\"}}"
Or you can format the value in using one of the methods provided by the string library
Take a look at the following example:
ran = math.random(100)
data = "{%q}"
print(string.format(data,ran))
--{"59"}
The %q specifier will take whatever you put as input, and safely surround it with quotations
The same logic can be applied to your Http Data.
Here is a corrected version of the code snippet:
local randomCorr = math.random(1,100)
http.request_batch({
{"POST", "https://store.thestore.com/priceAndOrder/selectProduct", headers={["Content-Type"]="application/json;charset=UTF-8"}, data="{\"ChoosenPhoneModelId\":4,\"PricePlanId\":\"phone\",\"CorrelationId\":\"" .. randomCorr .. "\",\"DeliveryTime\":\"1 vecka\",\"$$hashKey\":\"006\"},\"ChoosenAmortization\":{\"AmortizationLength\":0,\"ChoosenDataPackage\":{\"Description\":\"6 GB\",\"PricePerMountInKr\":245,\"DataAmountInGb\":6,\"$$hashKey\":\"00W\"},\"ChoosenPriceplan\":{\"IsPostpaid\":true,\"Title\":\"Fastpris\",\"Description\":\"Fasta kostnader till fast pris\",\"MonthlyAmount\":0,\"AvailiableDataPackages\":null,\"SubscriptionBinding\":0,\"$$hashKey\":\"00K\"}}", auto_decompress=true},
{"GET", "https://store.thestore.com/api/checkout/getproduct?correlationId=" .. randomCorr, auto_decompress=true},
})
There is something called $$hashKey also, in the quoted string. Not sure if that is supposed to be referencing a variable or not. If it is, it also needs to be concatenated into the resulting string, using the .. operator (just like with the randomCorr variable).
I have a variable titled F.
Describe F returns:
F: {group: bytearray,indexkey: {(indexkey: chararray)}}
Dump F returns:
(321,{(CHOW),(DREW)})
(5011,{(CHOW),(DREW)})
(5825,{(TANNER),(SPITZENBERGER)})
(16631,{(CHOW),(DREW)})
(34299,{(CHOW),(DREW)})
(35044,{(TANNER),(SPITZENBERGER)})
(65623,{(CHOW),(DREW)})
(74597,{(SPITZENBERGER),(TANNER)})
(83499,{(SPITZENBERGER),(TANNER)})
(90257,{(SPITZENBERGER),(TANNER)})
What I need is to produce an output that looks like this (only 1st row as an example):
(321,DREW,{(CHOW)})
I've tried using deference to pull out the first element by using this:
G = FOREACH F generate indexkey.$0;
But, this still returns the whole tuple.
Can anyone suggest a method for doing this? I was under the impression that the deference operator should allow me to do this.
Thanks in advance!

You can't index into bags like that. The reason for that is bags don't have any notion of ordering. Selecting the first item in a bag should be treated as picking a random one.
Either way, if you want only one item instead of all of them you can used a nested FOREACH to pull a LIMIT of 1:
first = FOREACH F {
lim = LIMIT indexkey 1;
GENERATE group, lim;
}
(disclaimer: I can't test this code right now, if it doesn't work let me know. Hopefully you can get the gist)
You can take this a bit further and FLATTEN it to remove the bag of one item entirely, but be careful in that if the bag is empty i think you throw away the entire record in this case.
first = FOREACH F {
lim = LIMIT indexkey 1;
GENERATE group, FLATTEN(lim);
}
I am trying to keep the last n elements from a changing list of x elements (where x >> n)
I found out about the deque method, with a fixed length, in other programming languages. I was wondering if there is something similar for VB6
Create a Class that extends an encapsulated Collection.
Add at the end (anonymous), retrieve & remove from the beginning (index 1). As part of adding check your MaxDepth property setting (or hard code it if you like) and if Collection.Count exceeds it remove the extra item.
Or just hard code it all inline if a Class is a stumper for you.
This is pretty routine.
The only thing I can think of is possibly looping through the last 5 values of the dynamic array using something like:
For UBound(Array) - 5 To UBound(Array)
'Code to store or do the desired with these values
Loop
Sorry I don't have a definite answer, but hopefully that might help.
Here's my simplest solution to this:
For i = n - 1 To 1 Step -1
arrayX(i) = arrayX(i - 1)
Next i
arrayX(0) = latestX
Where:
arrayX = array of values
n = # of array elements
latestX = latest value of interest (assumes entire code block is also
within another loop)
I have a GUI which uses a selection from a popupmenu in another callback. Is there a way to return the selected value of the popupmenu in only one line without creating any temporary variables? I've tried several solutions, but I've only managed two lines with one temporary variable:
Three lines:
list=get(handles.popupmenu1,'String');
val=get(handles.popupmenu1,'Value');
str=list{val};
Two lines:
temp=get(handles.popupmenu1,{'String','Value'});
str=temp{1}{temp{2}};
Can anyone shave it down to one?
PS, It's a dynamic menu, so I can't just use get(handles.popupmenu1,'Value') and ignore the string component altogether.
Here's a one-liner:
str = getCurrentPopupString(handles.popupmenu1);
And here's the definition of getCurrentPopupString
function str = getCurrentPopupString(hh)
%# getCurrentPopupString returns the currently selected string in the popupmenu with handle hh
%# could test input here
if ~ishandle(hh) || strcmp(get(hh,'Type'),'popupmenu')
error('getCurrentPopupString needs a handle to a popupmenu as input')
end
%# get the string - do it the readable way
list = get(hh,'String');
val = get(hh,'Value');
if iscell(list)
str = list{val};
else
str = list(val,:);
end
I know that's not the answer you were looking for, but it does answer the question you asked :)
I know this is stupid, but I couldn't resist:
list=get(handles.popupmenu1,'String'); str=list{get(handles.popupmenu1,'Value')};
I know that's not what you meant, but like the other answers above, it does answer your question... :-)
To make it a one-liner, I would simply create my own function (i.e. getMenuSelection) like Jonas illustrates in his answer. If you really want a true one-liner, here's one using CELLFUN:
str = cellfun(#(a,b) a{b},{get(handles.popupmenu1,'String')},{get(handles.popupmenu1,'Value')});
Very ugly and hard to read. I'd definitely go with writing my own function.
EDIT: And here's a slightly shorter (yet still equally ugly) one-liner using FEVAL:
str = feval(#(x) x{1}{x{2}},get(handles.popupmenu1,{'String','Value'}));
