remove a character from a data numpy array


remove a character from a data numpy array



I am currently importing a .txt file to a numpy array. The .txt file is organized by three columns with hundreds of thousands of rows.
Occasionally, for no apparent reason, the third column will have a attached to the number. This causes genfromtxt to import the number as nan. I have tried using a replace function for numpy, but I believe this function is looking for a string because I get an "EOL while scanning string literal" error code.enter image description here


numpy



genfromtxt


nan


numpy



Any advice?


import numpy as np
import numpy.core.defchararray as np_f

FLR = np.genfromtxt("C:UsersbrandDownloadsPythonMyFilesaupnipam_scan41_3DFLR.txt")
FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '')
x = FLR[:,][:,0]
y = FLR[:,][:,1]
z = FLR[:,][:,2]



I've added a picture of what the raw data looks like to show what I mean by it having a "" in the data



Following is the complete error code I get


File "<ipython-input-13-0876313d3bfc>", line 6
FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '')
^
SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal





This has nothing to do with numpy, you are missing a closing quote in this: FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '') line. You need to escape the , so try FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '')

FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '')


FLR = np_f(FLR, '', '')





Can you provide an example of data where this occurring so that the error can be reproduced?

If you're working with one and only one text file, it may just be easier to 'find and replace' in a text editor, removing the '' character. Not really a programming way to do it, but may be easier if it's just this one file.

@user3483203 I'm pretty sure that typo doesn't explain the issue described in the body of the question

His error is ""EOL while scanning string literal"", pretty sure it's exactly what his issue is

Opening a url is failing in Swift

Opening a url is failing in Swift breakpointing inside the callback and logging success shows false. I added itms-apps to my plist: LSApplicationQueriesSchemes and put this in my app delegate: func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool { return true } func moreTapped() { let url = NSURL(string: "itms-apps://itunes.com/developer/quantum-productions/id979315877") if #available(iOS 10.0, *) { UIApplication.shared.open(url! as URL, options: [:], completionHandler: {(success: Bool) in }) } else { UIApplication.shared.openURL(url! as URL) } } Are you testing on a real device? – rmaddy Jun 21 at 23:57 I try on a device, get "Cannot Connect to App Store".

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it. The problem is that now I am using dbeaver for mac and this guide is not working. I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select. As a result it does't select my result or anything (besides being "successful"). Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
