Say I have a list of numbers:
j: (til 40)*9
0 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90 99 108 117 126 135 144 153 162 171 180 189 198 207 216 225 234 243 252 261 270 279 288 297 306 315 324 333 342 351
What's the most elegant way to get the sum of the previous 3 (or n) numbers in the list? (Ideally considering large RAM constrained lists).
Does this work?
q)3 msum j
0 9 27 54 81 108 135 162 189 216 243 270 297 324 351 378 405 432 459 486 513 ..
I want to calculate the accuracy of my k-means clustering without normalization and k-means clustering with normalization and want to compare the results.
My dataset looks like this:

How can I write the code for it in Matlab and plot it?
I am trying to communicate with a StepRocker motor controller/drive using MATLAB. I have figured out how to format their commands and have been able to get it to move to many of commands. Their commands require that the values be sent in a binary format over RS-232. I started running into some issues and started using an Arduino to echo my commands.
I am currently sending the values 1 - 255 just to test sending bytes over the serial channel. I am sending it to an Arduino and reading the bytes back out of the Arduino. All numbers work except for the numbers between 128 and 159. This is problematic since some of my commands require values in this range.
MATLAB Script:
obj = instrfind; delete(obj); % cleanup any lost objects
clear; close force all; clc; % clear the workspace
sM = serial('COM2','BaudRate',9600, 'Terminator', 'CR', 'Timeout', 10);
fopen(sM);
pause(2); % give port time to open
% make list of numbers 1-255, skip 10/13 since they terminate on the
% arduino
cmd = [1:9 11:12 14:255];
% Send command and get echo
fprintf(sM,cmd);
pause(0.5); % give time for echo
echo = fscanf(sM);
uint8(echo)
fclose(sM);
After executing this script I get the following output:
ans =

Columns 243 through 254
245 246 247 248 249 250 251 252 253 254 255 13
Looking at the output, you can see that the numbers between 128 and 159 all come through as 63. I am at a loss for what is causing this issue. This is very repeatable, and the problem occurs anytime there is a number in this range, no matter its position in the string, no matter the length of the serial string.
Arduino Code:
bool stringComplete = false;
String inputString = "";
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
if (stringComplete) {
Serial.print(inputString);
stringComplete = false;
inputString = "";
}
}
void serialEvent() {
while (Serial.available()) {
char inChar = (char)Serial.read();
inputString += inChar;
if (inChar == '\r') {
stringComplete = true;
}
}
}
Any suggestions or ideas on how to solve this problem?
I'm using Octave 4.0 using Linux which is similar to Matlab
Is it possible to have a different range of numbers on a polar chart and have them show up along with the degrees also?
The normal polar plot goes from 0-359 degrees shown in black in image, I would like the range and tick values to be from 0 to 100 shown in red in the image is this possible? If so can two ranges be shown on a polar plot at the same time (0-359 and 0-100) almost like plotting 2 y axis using plotyy on the same plot?
See image below of polar plot
Here's the the numbers 0-359 and there corresponding numbers 0-100 matching up.

Numbers matching up
The polar plot object in Octave adds the rtick and ttick properties to the parent axes which allows you to change the location of the ticks, however, there is unfortunately no tticklabel property that we can use to easily find and modify the theta tick marks.
Instead, we can plot your plot that you want the theta range to be 0 - 100 by first transforming your data to instead be 0 - 2*pi (as is expected by polar). Then after plotting both, we can use findall to locate all text objects, figure out which ones are the theta ticks, create a copy of them and modify one of the sets to appear to be 0 - 100.
% Your first plot is going to use the 0 - 2pi range for theta
theta1 = linspace(0, 2*pi, 1000);
rho1 = sin(theta1 * 5);
plot1 = polar(theta1, rho1);
hold on
% For your second plot, just transform your 0 - 100 range to be 0 - 360 instead
theta2 = 0:100;
rho2 = linspace(0, 1, numel(theta2));
modtheta2 = 2*pi * (theta2 ./ 100);
plot2 = polar(modtheta2, rho2);
% Now we need to modify all of the labels
% Find all of the original labels
labels = findall(gca, 'type', 'text');
% Figure out which ones are the radial labels. To do this we compute the distance
% from the center of the plot and find the most common distance
distances = cellfun(#(x)norm(x(1:2)), get(labels, 'Position'));
% Figure out the most common
[~, ~, b] = unique(round(distances * 100));
h = hist(b, 1:max(b));
labels = labels(b == find(h == max(h)));
% Make a copy of these labels (have to use arrayfun for 4.0.x compatibility)
blacklabels = arrayfun(#(L)copyobj(L, gca), labels);
% Shift these labels outward by 15%
arrayfun(#(x)set(x, 'Position', get(x, 'Position') * 1.15), blacklabels);
% Now set the other labels to red and change their values
set(labels, 'COlor', 'red')
for k = 1:numel(labels)
value = str2num(get(labels(k), 'String'))
% Convert the value to be between 0 and 100
newvalue = 100 * (value / 360);
set(labels(k), 'String', sprintf('%0.2f', newvalue))
end
I want to display a large matrix, but I don't like the words "Columns x to y" to show. How can I do this?
You can use the function NUM2STR to format a large 2-D matrix A into a character array and display that. For example:
>> A = magic(15); %# This would likely break up columns when displayed
>> num2str(A) %# This won't
