How to install tensorflow on Python 2.7 in Windows?
by marc nicole June 26, 2024

June 26, 2024

Browsing the available version of tensorflow for the dates before January 2021 (date when Python 2.7 stopped being supported) I can't find a tensorflow version for Python 2.7 that works under Windows. The reference site I use is https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow/ Anybody can point out a compatible .whl file with Python 2.7 and Windows?

How to go about a simple object grabbing in python (given coordinates of arms and objects)
by marc nicole June 24, 2024

June 24, 2024

Hello to all of this magnificent community! I have this problem I had already spent a few days on and still can't figure out a proper solution. So, given the x,y,z coordinates of a target object and the offset x,y,z of arms of a robot, what is a good algorithm to perform to grab the object between the hands (either from both sides or from below all using both hands). Specifically, my problem is applied to a NAO robot environment where I retrieve a target object coordinates using the following code: tracker_service= session.service("ALTracker") xyz_pos = tracker_service.getTargetPosition(motion.FRAME_TORSO) src: http://doc.aldebaran.com/2-8/naoqi/motion/control-cartesian.html#motion-car… Then I get to move the right arm towards nearby the object using the following code: effector = "RArm" frame = motion.FRAME_TORSO effector_offset = almath.Transform(self.motion.getTransform(effector, frame, False)) effector_init_3d_position = almath.position3DFromTransform( effector_offset) target_3d_position = almath.Position3D(target_position) move_3d = target_3d_position - effector_init_3d_position moveTransform = almath.Transform.fromPosition(move_3d.x, move_3d.y, move_3d.z) target_transformer_list = list(moveTransform.toVector()) times = [2.0] axis_mask_list = motion.AXIS_MASK_VEL self.motion.transformInterpolations(effector, frame, target_transformer_list, axis_mask_list, times). src: http://doc.aldebaran.com/1-14/dev/python/examples/almath/index.html?highlig… This question is specific to NAO environment but in general how to go about this task? what is a most common algorithm used in this case? Do I have to also get the side of the object in order to know where exactly the arms should be placed?

recommends for online envionments for running pygame and python programs
by Nathan Smith June 13, 2024

June 13, 2024

Hello list, I was wondering if anyone has recommends for online environments for running pygame. There's a few knocking around, but they are all restricted in some way. Looking at the pygame examples folder in GitHub, they draw from bmp files and .wav files to run their games (such as the little alien arcade). None of the pygame online runners I have found would let you run these.. Any suggestions? Nathan

use of dict() function
by Alex Kleider June 12, 2024

June 12, 2024

#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Question: I created a class which I initially coded as in Rec0. I then read[1] that calling dict(mapping) returns a new dict essentially providing the functionality of my class (except for the call-ability feature.) The interesting thing is that calling dict(mapping) within a class definition seems to result in different behavior than when called elsewhere. Is there an explanation??? The following code hopefully illustrates what I'm on about. Cheers, Alex Kleider [1]: https://www.thepythoncodingstack.com/p/python-dict-is-more-versatile-than-y… """ class Rec0(dict): def __init__(self, rec): for key, value in rec.items(): self[key] = value def __call__(self, fstr): return fstr.format(**self) class Rec1(dict): def __init__(self, rec): self = dict(rec) def __call__(self, fstr): return fstr.format(**self) def test(): d0 = {"husband": "Alex", "wife": "June", "daughter": "Tanya", "son": "Kelly", } d1 = dict(d0) d1["grand_daughter"] = "Isabella" print("Using dict function directly...") print(" d1 should (and does) contain five entries as follows:") print(d1); print() d0 = {"husband": "Alex", "wife": "June", "daughter": "Tanya", "son": "Kelly", } d1 = Rec0(d0) d1["grand_daughter"] = "Isabella" print("Using Rec0 (which doesn't use the dict() function)...") print(" d1 also contain five entries as follows:") print(d1); print() d0 = {"husband": "Alex", "wife": "June", "daughter": "Tanya", "son": "Kelly", } d1 = Rec1(d0) d1["grand_daughter"] = "Isabella" print("Using Rec1 (which uses the dict() function)...") print(" d1 should (but doesn't) contain the five entries:") print(d1); print() if __name__ == "__main__": test()

Hello, I'm currently working on an issue I'm having with PIP. I am on windows 10 running PY version 3.12 with pip version 23.2.1. I am on a corporate computer in my office. I cannot install packages. I run the command below and get the following error: >pip install pandas WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x000002A771A2EDB0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed'))': /simple/pandas/ WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=3, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x000002A771B914C0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed'))': /simple/pandas/ WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=2, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x000002A772576CC0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed'))': /simple/pandas/ WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=1, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x000002A772576F30>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed'))': /simple/pandas/ WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=0, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x000002A772577020>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed'))': /simple/pandas/ ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pandas (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for pandas I've done a couple of things to try and solve the issue, but still cannot. I tried running the below: pip install --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host pypi.python.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org numpy I added a pip.ini file to the >AppData>Roaming>Pip that contains the following: [global] trusted-host = files.pythonhosted.org pypi.org pypi.python.org proxy = myproxy (left this out for obvious reasons) I also tried adding my user/password to the proxy. Am I screwing up the format of my proxy? Do I need to somehow include my IP address? I am not sure where to go from here.
