Calling Sequence

Python(x, cgopts)

Parameters

x

-

expression, list, rtable, procedure, or module

cgopts

-

(optional) one or more CodeGeneration options

Description

• 

The Python(x, cgopts) calling sequence translates Maple code to Python code.

  

- If the parameter x is an algebraic expression, then a Python statement assigning the expression to a variable is generated.

  

- If x is a list, Maple Array, or rtable of algebraic expressions, then a sequence of Python statements assigning the elements to a Python array is produced.  Only the initialized elements of the rtable or Maple Array are translated.

  

- If x is a list of equations nm=expr, where nm is a name and expr is an algebraic expression, then this is understood as a sequence of assignment statements.  In this case, the equivalent sequence of Python assignment statements is generated.

  

- If x is a procedure, then a Python class is generated containing a function equivalent to the procedure, along with any necessary import statements.

  

- If x is a module, then a Python class is generated, as described on the PythonDetails help page.

• 

The parameter cgopts may include one or more CodeGeneration options, as described in CodeGenerationOptions.

Examples

For a description of the options used in the following examples, see CodeGenerationOptions.

withCodeGeneration:

Translate a simple expression and assign it to the name w in the target code.

Pythonx+yz2xz,resultname=w

w = -2 * x * z + y * z + x

Translate a list and assign it to an array with the name w in the target code.

Pythonx,2y,5,z,resultname=w

w = [[x,2 * y],[5,z]]

Translate a computation sequence.  Optimize the input first.

css=1.0+x,t=lnsexpx,r=expx+xt:

Pythoncs,optimize

s = 0.10e1 + x
t1 = math.log(s)
t2 = math.exp(-x)
t = t2 * t1
r = x * t + t2

Declare that x is a float and y is an integer. Return the result in a string.

sPythonx+y+1,declare=x::float,y::'integer',output=string

scg = x + y + 1

(1)

Translate a procedure.  Assume that all untyped variables have type integer.

f := proc(x, y, z) return x*y-y*z+x*z; end proc:

Pythonf,defaulttype=integer

def f (x, y, z):
    return(y * x - y * z + x * z)

Translate a procedure containing an implicit return.  A new variable is created to hold the return value.

f := proc(n)
  local x, i;
  x := 0.0;
  for i to n do
    x := x + i;
  end do;
end proc:

Pythonf

def f (n):
    x = 0.0e0
    for i in range(1, n + 1):
        x = x + i
        cgret = x
    return(cgret)

Translate a linear combination of hyperbolic trigonometric functions.

Python2coshx7tanhx

cg0 = 2 * math.cosh(x) - 7 * math.tanh(x)

Translate a procedure with no return value containing a printf statement.

f := proc(a::integer, p::integer)
  printf("The integer remainder of %d divided by %d is: %d\n", a, p, irem(a, p));
end proc:

Pythonf

def f (a, p):
    printf("The integer remainder of %d divided by %d is: %d\n", a, p, a % p)

Translate a procedure involving linear algebra.

detHilbert := proc(M, n :: posint) uses LinearAlgebra;
   return Determinant( HilbertMatrix( n ) );
end proc:

PythondetHilbert

import numpy.linalg
import scipy.linalg

def detHilbert (M, n):
    return(numpy.linalg.det(scipy.linalg.hilbert(n)))

Notice that by default CodeGeneration translates LinearAlgebra[Determinant] to the Python function numpy.linalg.det.  However as the Python scipy.linalg library is already being used in the above example and also contains a implementation of the determinant, it may be simpler to use that translation.  This may be achieved using the libraryorder option to indicate that scipy.linalg is preferred over numpy.linalg.

PythondetHilbert,libraryorder=scipy.linalg,numpy.linalg

import scipy.linalg

def detHilbert (M, n):
    return(scipy.linalg.det(scipy.linalg.hilbert(n)))

Compatibility

• 

The CodeGeneration[Python] command was introduced in Maple 18.
