I am new to Python and Pandas. I am trying to write a function to get a unique list of my column values. My function looks like below, where "placename" is the attribute that I want to get unique values. 'placename' should be passed as a string argument,corresponding to the header of the csv file.
def get_city_list(state, type, placename):
city_dir = os.path.join(baseDir, type + ".csv")
city_df = pd.read_csv(city_dir, quotechar = '"', skipinitialspace = True, sep = ",")
state_df = city_df.loc[city_df["state"] == state]
city_list = state_df.placename.unique()
return city_list
However, when I call this function, it throws a attribute error saying 'DataFrame' object has no attribute "placename". It seems that "placename" should not be a string, and when I substitute it as
city_list = state_df.cityname.unique(), it works, where cityname (without " ") is the actual header of the column in the original csv file. Since I want to make my function versatile,I want to find a way to deal with this case so that I dont have to manually change the content of "placename" every time.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
The dot operator . is reserved to access attributes of an object. pandas is nice enough to make column names accessible via an attribute. But you can't do something like df."myplace"
Change your code to:
state_df[placename].unique()
This way, you are passing placename on to the getitem method.

I am currently trying to program a function module which should, in theory, output a custom table like T052, but with an additional field Z_TEXTLONG, which explains the details of the chosen ZTERM, akin to the text in FI_F4_ZTERM's popup. Here's what I tried:
LOOP AT T_ZBEDS ASSIGNING FIELD-SYMBOL(<line>).
CALL FUNCTION 'FI_F4_ZTERM'
EXPORTING
I_KOART = 'K'
I_ZTERM = <line>-zterm
I_XSHOW = ''
I_ZTYPE = ''
I_NO_POPUP = 'X'
IMPORTING
E_ZTERM = v_text
EXCEPTIONS
NOTHING_FOUND = 1
OTHERS = 2.
WRITE v_text TO <line>-Z_TEXTLONG.
From what I gathered, this does not work due to FI_F4_ZTERM writing the list it returns into E_ZTERM, not a single value, which would be what I need. I am a bit lost as to what I should do next. I tried looking into how exactly FI_F4_ZTERM generates these texts or where it calls them from, but I was not successful. Currently, I am trying to maybe get this text from V_T052, but that does not work either. I would be thankful for any suggestions.
Try function FI_TEXT_ZTERM, it has single import parameter I_T052
why not just call CALL FUNCTION 'FI_F4_ZTERM'
with I_NO_POPUP = 'X'
importing
ET_ZTERM = lt_zterm.
you get the list of payment terms and their texts.
Then in the loop read it from the table of payment terms.
LOOP AT T_ZBEDS ASSIGNING FIELD-SYMBOL(<line>).
read table lt_zterm assigning <term>
with key ZTERM = <line>-zterm.
ENDLOOP.
Trying to wrap my head around zoho creator, its not as simple as they make it out to be for building apps… I have an inventory database, and i have four fields that I call to fill a field called Inventory Number (Inv_Num1) –
First Name (First_Name)
Last Name (Last_Name)
Year (Year)
Number (Number)
I have a Custom Function script that I call through a Custom Action in the form report. What I am trying to do is upload a CSV file with 900 entries. Of course, not all of those have those values (first/last/number) so I need to bulk edit all of them. However when I do the bulk edit, the Inv_Num1 field is not updated with the new values. I use the custom action to populate the Inv_Num1 field with the values of the other 4 fields.
Heres is my script:
void onetime.UpdateInv()
{
for each Inventory_Record in Management
{
FN = Inventory_Record.First_Name.subString(0,1);
LN = Inventory_Record.Last_Name.subString(0,1);
YR = Inventory_Record.Year.subString(2,4);
NO = Inventory_Record.Number;
outputstr = FN + LN + YR + NO;
Inventory_Record.Inv_Num1 = outputstr;
}
}
I get this error back when I try to run this function
Error.
Error in executing UpdateInv workflow.
Error in executing For Each Record task.
Error in executing Set Variable task. Unable to update template variable FN.
Error evaluating STRING expression :
Even though there is a First Name for example, it still thinks there is none. This only happens on the fields I changed with Bulk Edit. If I do each one by hand, then the custom action works—but of course then the Inv_Num1 is already updated through my edit on success functions and makes the whole thing moot.
this may be one year late, you might have found the solution but just to highlight, the error u were facing was just due to the null value in first name.
you just have put a null check on each field and u r good to go.
you can generate the inv_number on the time of bulk uploading also by adding null check in the same code on and placing the code on Add> On Submt.( just the part inside the loop )
the Better option would be using a formula field, you just have to put this formula in that formula field and you'll get your inventory_number autogenerated , you can rename the formula_field to Inv Number or whaterver u want.
Since you are using substring directly in year Field, I am assuming the
year field as string.else you would have to user Year.tostring().substring(2,4) & instead of if(Year=="","",...) you have to put if(Year==null , null,...);
so here's the formula
if(First_Name=="","",First_Name.subString(0,1))+if(Last_Name =="","",Last_Name.subString(0,1)) + if(Year=="","",Year.subString(2,4)+Number
Let me know ur response if u implement this.
Without knowing the datatype its difficult to fix, but making the assumption that your Inventory_Record.number is a numeric data item you are adding a string to a number:
The "+" is used for string Concatenation - Joiner but it also adds two numbers together so think "a" + "b" = "ab" for strings but for numbers 1 + 2 = 3.
All good, but when you do "a" + 2 the system doesn't know whether to add or concatenate so gives an error.
i would like to read some images with scilab and i use the function imread like this
im01=imread('kodim01t.jpg');
im02=imread('kodim02t.jpg');
im03=imread('kodim03t.jpg');
im04=imread('kodim04t.jpg');
im05=imread('kodim05t.jpg');
im06=imread('kodim06t.jpg');
im07=imread('kodim07t.jpg');
im08=imread('kodim08t.jpg');
im09=imread('kodim09t.jpg');
im10=imread('kodim10t.jpg');
i would like to know if there is a way to do something like below in order to optimize the
for i = 1:5
im&i=imread('kodim0&i.jpg');
end
thanks in advance
I see two possible solutions using execstr or using some kind of list/matrix
Execstr
First create a string of the command to execute with msprintf and then execute this with execstr. Note that in the msprintf conversion the right amount of leading zeros are inserted by %0d format specifier descbribed here.
for i = 1:5
cmd=msprintf('im%d=imread(\'kodim%02d.jpg\');', i, i);
execstr(cmd);
end
List/Matrix
This is probably the more intuitive option using a indexable container such as list.
// This list could be generated using msprintf from example above
file_names_list = list("kodim01t.jpg", "kodim02t.jpg" ,"kodim03t.jpg");
// Create empty list to contain images
opened_images = list();
for i=1:length(file_names_list)
// Open image and insert it at end of list
opened_images($+1) = imread(file_names_list[i]);
end
Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
def famlist = selection.getUnique('Family_code')
... Where “””...
and testedWaferPass.family_code in $famlist
“””...
famlist is a list of objects
‘selection’ will change every run, so the list is always changing.
I want to return only columns from my SQL search where the row is found in the list that I have created.
I realize it is supposed to look like: in ('foo','bar')
But no matter what I do, my list will not get like that. So I have to turn my list into a string?
('\${famlist.join("', '")}')
Ive tried the above, idk. Wasn’t working for me. Just thought I would throw that in there. Would love some suggestions. Thanks.
I am willing to bet there is a Groovier way to implement this than shown below - but this works. Here's the important part of my sample script. nameList original contains the string names. Need to quote each entry in the list, then string the [ and ] from the toString result. I tried passing as prepared statement but for that you need to dynamically create the string for the ? for each element in the list. This quick-hack doesn't use a prepared statement.
def nameList = ['Reports', 'Customer', 'Associates']
def nameListString = nameList.collect{"'${it}'"}.toString().substring(1)
nameListString = nameListString.substring(0, nameListString.length()-1)
String stmt = "select * from action_group_i18n where name in ( $nameListString)"
db.eachRow( stmt ) { row ->
println "$row.action_group_id, $row.language, $row.name"
}
Hope this helps!
I'm currently creating a flat file export for one of our clients, i've managed to get the file in the format they want, i'm trying to get the easiest way of creating a dynamic file name. I've got the date in as a variable and the path ect but they want a count in the file name. For example
File name 1 : TDY_11-02-2013_{1}_T1.txt. The {} being the count. So next weeks file would be TDY_17-02-2013_{2}_T1.txt
I cant see an easy way of doing this!! any idea's??
EDIT:
on my first answer, I thought you meant count of values returned on a query. My bad!
two ways to achieve this, you could loop into the destination folder, select the last file by date, get its value and increase 1, which sound like a lot of trouble. Why not a simple log table on the DB with last execution date and ID and then you compose your file name base on the last row of this table?
where exactly is your problem?
you can make a dynamic file name using expressions:
the count, you can use a "row count" component inside your data flow to assign the result to a variable and use the variable on your expression:
Use Script task and get the number inside the curly braces of the file name and store it in a variable.
Create a variable(FileNo of type int) which stores the number for the file
Pseudo code
string name = string.Empty;
string loction = #"D:\";
/* Get the path from the connection manager like the code below
instead of hard coding like D: above
string flatFileConn =
(string(Dts.Connections["Yourfile"].AcquireConnection(null) as String);
*/
string pattern = string.Empty;
int number = 0;
string pattern = #"{([0-9])}"; // Not sure about the correct regular expression to retrieve the number inside braces
foreach (string s in Directory.GetFiles(loction,"*.txt"))
{
name = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(s);
Match match = Regex.Match(name, pattern );
if (match.Success)
{
dts.Variables["User::FileNo"].Value = int.Parse(match.Value)+1;
}
}
Now once you get the value use it in your file expression in the connection manager
#[User::FilePath] +#[User::FileName]
+"_{"+ (DT_STR,10,1252) #[User::FileNo] + "}T1.txt"
