Matplotlib Savefig will NOT overwrite old files

TLDR: The photos WERE being overwritten, but the date was kept the same as the original file, due to a quirk of windows when a folder has lots of photos. Jon’s answer from 10/2/2015 did the trick for me. https://superuser.com/questions/147525/what-is-the-date-column-in-windows-7-explorer-it-matches-no-date-column-from/335901#335901 Basically windows detects lots of pictures in a folder and “optimizes” said folder for pictures. … Read more

How do I set color to Rectangle in Matplotlib?

I couldn’t get your code to work, but hopefully this will help: import matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(111) rect1 = matplotlib.patches.Rectangle((-200,-100), 400, 200, color=”yellow”) rect2 = matplotlib.patches.Rectangle((0,150), 300, 20, color=”red”) rect3 = matplotlib.patches.Rectangle((-300,-50), 40, 200, color=”#0099FF”) circle1 = matplotlib.patches.Circle((-200,-250), radius=90, color=”#EB70AA”) ax.add_patch(rect1) ax.add_patch(rect2) ax.add_patch(rect3) ax.add_patch(circle1) plt.xlim([-400, 400]) plt.ylim([-400, 400]) … Read more

Find unique elements of floating point array in numpy (with comparison using a delta value)

Another possibility is to just round to the nearest desirable tolerance: np.unique(a.round(decimals=4)) where a is your original array. Edit: Just to note that my solution and @unutbu’s are nearly identical speed-wise (mine is maybe 5% faster) according to my timings, so either is a good solution. Edit #2: This is meant to address Paul’s concern. … Read more

Python rounding error with float numbers [duplicate]

Any number that can’t be built from exact powers of two can’t be represented exactly as a floating point number; it needs to be approximated. Sometimes the closest approximation will be less than the actual number. Read What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic.
