Order of magnitude using Big-O notation
This is likely ground that has been covered but I have yet to find an explanation that I am able to understand. It is likely that I will soon feel embarrassed.
For instance, I am trying to find the order of magnitude using Big-O notation of the…

How to push dynamic object with same speed using UIPushBehavior?
I'm not a physics expert. However, I want to move UILable which has a dynamic height (depends on content) just like teleprompter. But when I start behaviour with magnitude 10, it starts moving but suddenly its slow down and I want continuous move…

range builder `r_` - slice with complex (but not imaginary) step; magnitude is used
Playing with the NumPy concatenation and range building object r_ I stumbled over the following behavior: apparently, a complex step no matter whether real, imaginary or proper complex has its absolute value taken as the number of steps in a…

Efficient Magnitude Calculation of 3D Vector
I'm working on an inertial measurement project using a 3-axis accelerometer and an Arduino. I want the Arduino to take in the x, y, and z g-values and spit out the magnitude. Since the |a| = sqrt(x^2 + y^2 + z^2) is computationally expensive, I…

Python Pylab, how to alter the size of the label specifying the magnitude of the axes
I am attempting to plot differential cross-sections of nuclear decays and so the magnitudes of the y-axis are around 10^-38 (m^2) pylab as default plots the axis as 0.0,0.2,0.4... etc and has a '1e-38' at the top of the y-axis.
I need to increase…

How can I find the biggest magnitude present in a numpy array?
Say I have:
A = np.array( [1,2,3,-8] )
I need a function that would return 8
I know it's a simple one, but instant Google-Fu failed, hence some merit in populating SO maybe.

Why using magnitude method to get processed image?
Hi guys I’ve thinking about this question:
I know that we use Fourier transform to get into frequency domain to process the image.
I read the text book, it said that when we are done with processing the image in the Fourier domain we have to invert…

Pandas Dataframe - How do you check the sign of numeric values in a column, remove the sign if negative & create another column if this has happened?
Python 3.8, using Pandas.
I am trying to remove the sign from negative numbers in a pandas data frame column 'DATA' to just leave the magnitude, i.e. all values are positive. In essence, multiply the value in one column by -1, but only when it is…
