Loading in the data¶
About the tools you’re about to use.¶
HR diagram data can be loaded using the hoki.load.population_output()
function. This function will automatically know that you are trying to load an HR diagram from the name of the text file.
Important: You should note that when loading an HR diagram you need to specify what type of HR diagram you want to load form the file. The HR diagram files are large and quite complex - see left hand side of the diagam below - so we’ll be loading in one type of HR diagram at a time.
You can choose from 3 options: - 'TL'
: For a temperature/Luminosity HR diagram - 'Tg'
: For a temperature/surface gravity HR diagram - 'TTG'
: For a temperature/(temperature**4/surface gravity) HR diagram
These options are there for 2 reasons: * 1.They tell the object which segment of the text file to load in * 2.They tell the plotting function what grid to create in order to plot the contours (also picks the right axis labels).
Loading the HR diagrams¶
[2]:
# Loading the HR diagrams for signle stars and binary star populations
sin_hr_diagram = load.model_output('./data/hrs-sin-imf135_300.z020.dat', hr_type = 'TL')
bin_hr_diagram = load.model_output('./data/hrs-bin-imf135_300.z020.dat', hr_type = 'TL')
Loading some observational data¶
We’re going to want to plot some observational data to compare to our models. A nice way to do that is to use pandas
.
[3]:
# Loading the observational data of Upper Scorpio
usco = pd.read_csv('./data/USco.dat', sep='\t', engine='python', names=['Temperature', 'Luminosity'])
[4]:
usco.head()
[4]:
| Temperature | Luminosity | |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 3.756 | 0.38 |
| 1 | 3.742 | 0.34 |
| 2 | 3.742 | 0.36 |
| 3 | 3.750 | 0.08 |
| 4 | 3.728 | 0.27 |
Plotting HR diagrams¶
Now that we have loaded in our data, it’s time to create some visualisation. The advantage of using the HRDiagrams
object is that it comes with an easy-to-use plotting method that is highly versatile and designed to create publication-ready figures.
Let’s run through a couple of ways you can use this tool and make it your own.
Making a single plot¶
First we are going to make just one HR diagram plot. The plotting method returns the plote object, which allows you to customize you plot.
For example you can add observational data, some text, a title, a legend and redefine the axis limits to create a more effective visualisation.
[5]:
# Just maing sure teh figure size is sensible
plt.figure(figsize=(8,6))
# Plotting the hr_diagram (all hydrogen abundances added up) at the 10 million year time bin
my_plot = sin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7.0)
# Addind the observational data of Upper Scorpio
my_plot.scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, label='Usco', s=50)
# Customizing the visualisation
my_plot.set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
my_plot.set_ylim([2.8, 6.2]) # better limits
my_plot.text(5.25, 5.5, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", fontsize = 14) # Informative text
my_plot.legend() # a legend
my_plot.set_title('Single stars') # A title
[5]:
Text(0.5, 1.0, 'Single stars')
Multiple plots¶
There might be times you want to put multiple plots on the same figure. The good news is the HRDiagrams.plot()
allows you to do that intuitively! There are actually more than one way to do it, depending on how you like making your subplots in Python, either with add_subplot()
or subplots()
.
Here is the same HR diagram as presented above, but with the Single star population on the left and the Binary star population on the right.
a) Using ``subplots()`` syntax
[6]:
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1,2, figsize=(15,5))
sin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7.0, loc=ax[0])
ax[0].scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, label='Usco')
ax[0].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[0].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[0].set_title('Single stars')
ax[0].text(5.25, 5.5, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", fontsize = 18)
ax[0].legend()
bin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7.0, loc=ax[1])
ax[1].scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, c='pink', s=100, label='Usco')
ax[1].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[1].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[1].set_title('Binary stars')
ax[1].text(5.25, 5.4, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", color='k', fontsize = 18)
ax[1].legend()
[6]:
<matplotlib.legend.Legend at 0x7fc159d9beb8>
b) Using ``add_subplot()`` syntax
[7]:
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1,2, figsize=(15,5))
sin_plot = sin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7, loc=121)
sin_plot .scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, label='Usco')
sin_plot .set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
sin_plot .set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
sin_plot .set_title('Single stars')
sin_plot .text(5.25, 5.5, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", fontsize = 18)
sin_plot .legend()
bin_plot = bin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7, loc=122)
bin_plot.scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, s=100, c='pink', label='Usco')
bin_plot.set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
bin_plot.set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
bin_plot.set_title('Binary stars')
bin_plot.text(5.25, 5.4, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", color='k', fontsize = 18)
bin_plot.legend()
[7]:
<matplotlib.legend.Legend at 0x7fc159ec4b38>
Customizing your plots with matplotlib key word arguments¶
Althought the default parameters for the HR diagram pltos were chosen to allow the creating of publication-ready plots with as few modifications as possible, the plotting function of HRDiagrams
objects are designed to take any subplementary key word arguments and pass them on to matplotlib.pyplot.contour
.
This allows a much greater level of flexibility when making graphics. For example if you wish to cahnge the colormap you can do the following.
[8]:
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1,2, figsize=(15,5))
bin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7, loc=ax[0], cmap='jet_r') # levels adjusted for visualisation
ax[0].scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, c='w', label='Usco')
ax[0].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[0].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[0].set_title('A terrible colormap')
ax[0].text(5.25, 5.4, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", color='k', fontsize = 18)
ax[0].legend()
bin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7, loc=ax[1], cmap='magma_r') # levels adjusted for visualisation
ax[1].scatter(usco.Temperature, usco.Luminosity, c='w', label='Usco')
ax[1].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[1].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[1].set_title('A less terrible colormap')
ax[1].text(5.25, 5.0, "Z = 0.02 \nlog(Age/yrs)=7.0", color='w', fontsize = 18)
ax[1].legend()
[8]:
<matplotlib.legend.Legend at 0x7fc15dd46d68>
Creating a publication-ready figure¶
In this last section, we will reproduce with hoki
Figure 23 of Eldirdge, Stanway et al. (2018). This will show you how you can create a publication ready figure just using hoki
and other ubiquitous python packages.
Note: This figure will look a little different frmo the published version as the latter was created in IDL
[9]:
# renaming our already laoded HR diagram just for readability

cyg_L, cyg_L_e, cyg_T, cyg_T_e = np.genfromtxt('./data/census.dat', unpack=True, usecols=(14,15,17,18))

In the case of the NGC 6067 we want to make a spectroscopic HR diagram. That means that the y axis will be \(\log(T^4/g)\) – this quatity is refered to as TG or log(TG). The trick is, we need to make sure we are using the right units when we do the calculations.
We want everything to be with respect to solar units, so we’ll have to divide by solar surface temperature (5778K) and surface gravity (274 m/s or a log g = 2.4377). We also nee to convert to SI from cgs, so there is a factor of \(10^{-2}\) in the g, i.e a -2
in the log g exponent, that needs to be taken into account.
We also need to propagate errors. Since it’s a mess of logs I’ll just use bootstrapping for that.
Boostrapping: In this particular case I sample each of my values/data points according to a normal distribution where the mean is the value of that data point and the standard deviation is the error. I do this 1000 times, calculate the corresponding TG, and take the mean and standard deviation of these 1000 TG values.
[12]:
TG = []
TG_e = []
for T_i, T_e_i, logg_i, logg_e_i in zip(ngc_T, ngc_T_e, ngc_logg, ngc_logg_e):
TG.append(np.mean(np.log10((np.random.normal(T_i, T_e_i, 1000)/5778)**4/
((10**(np.random.normal(logg_i-2.4377-2, np.abs(logg_e_i), 1000) ))))))
TG_e.append(np.std(np.log10((np.random.normal(T_i, T_e_i, 1000)/5778)**4/
((10**(np.random.normal(logg_i-2.4377-2, np.abs(logg_e_i), 1000) ))))))
We also need to make sure we get the log(T) errors (and no, you can’t just do log(ngc_T_e)
). I’m using bootstrapping - because I can.
[13]:
T_e = []
for T_i, T_e_i in zip(ngc_T, ngc_T_e):
T_e.append(np.std(np.log(np.random.normal(T_i, T_e_i, 1000))))
And now it’s time to plot all of this!

for axis in ax.reshape(6):

Stacking a range of Ages¶
But what if you are interested in a stellar population that has a range of ages?
Using the HRDiagram
class you can stack HR Diagrams of a range of ages across all three surface abundance categories in a single line!
Let’s stack every age bin between 1 and 10 Myrs:
[15]:
bin_hr_diagram.stack(log_age_min=6.0, log_age_max=6.5)
The following attributes were updated: .all_stacked, .high_H_stacked, .medium_H_stacked, .low_H_stacked.
This should return the following message:
The following attributes were updated: .all_stacked, .high_H_stacked, .medium_H_stacked, .low_H_stacked.
It indicates that the stacking was performed successfully, and four attributes of the HRDiagram
class were update.
HRDiagram.all_stacked
, HRDiagram.high_H_stacked
, HRDiagram.medium_H_stacked
, HRDiagram.low_H_stacked
, are the stacked equivalents to HRDiagram.all
, HRDiagram.high_H
, HRDiagram.medium_H
, HRDiagram.low_H
(see right panel of the Figure at the top of this tutorial).
This means that the original HRDiagram.all
, HRDiagram.high_H
, HRDiagram.medium_H
, HRDiagram.low_H
attributes remain untouched when you run the .stack()
method - only the “stacked” attributes will be updated.

Plotting HRDs of stacked ages¶
Now, it’s possible you don’t actually need to do any opperations on the stacked HRDs, you just want to plot HRDs for a range of ages.
For this you don’t even need to use the .stack()
method, you can do it directly in the .plot()
method: you need to use the parameter age_range
instead of ‘log_age
in the plotting method.
Here is an example of an HRD at 10 Myrs Vs an aggregate of HRDs from 1 to 10 Myrs.
[16]:
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1,2, figsize=(15,5))
bin_hr_diagram.plot(log_age=7, loc=ax[0]) #levels adjusted for visualisation
ax[0].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[0].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[0].set_title('Single Age: log(Age/yrs)=7.0')
bin_hr_diagram.plot(age_range=[6.0, 7.0], loc=ax[1]) # levels adjusted for visualisation
ax[1].set_xlim([5.4, 3.4])
ax[1].set_ylim([2.8, 6.2])
ax[1].set_title('Stacked Age: log(Age/yrs)= 6.0 - 7.0')
The following attributes were updated: .all_stacked, .high_H_stacked, .medium_H_stacked, .low_H_stacked.
[16]:
Text(0.5, 1.0, 'Stacked Age: log(Age/yrs)= 6.0 - 7.0')
YOU’RE ALL SET!

Scott Allan blasts back at Gary Holt's 'cheater' claims as Hibs star fights his corner
The 27-year-old was left unimpressed with the Livi manager's post-match claims.
by Press AssociationAngry Scott Allan has refuted claims he "cheated" Livingston.
Gary Holt accused the Hibs star of diving after watching footage of the penalty he won after a coming together with ex team-mate Marvin Bartley in Wednesday's 2-2 draw.
Allan fired the the penalty to halve the deficit and Martin Boyle sealed a stoppage-time equaliser to earn a Premiership point.
The 27-year-old said: "I'm running into the box with a bit of pace, ball was played in behind, and I felt someone behind me. My momentum took me over. For me it's a penalty, and I stepped up and put it away. It's part of the game."
When asked how he felt the footage looked, Allan said: "It's different in real time, my momentum took me and the referee gave a penalty."
The playmaker was unhappy with Holt's comments.
"I think that's poor to be honest," Allan said. "The amount of kicks I take in a game and get up and play on would back that I'm not a cheat. For me it's about doing a job professionally and the best for my club.
"It's obviously just a manager who is a bit hurt after the game because his team let a 2-0 lead go. We have been in those positions and it's not good and you look for excuses why your team didn't get the result."
Allan was also unimpressed with claims from Bartley that he never touched him.
"Marv was trying to talk to me the full game to be honest, he had so much to say," Allan said. "The thing is with Marv, Marv probably shouldn't have been on the pitch at that time.
"He said he didn't catch me. To be fair the full game he was late and I felt at that time my momentum took me over and he was behind me along with three other players."
Head coach Paul Heckingbottom claimed Holt had no evidence to back up his accusations.
"He's got better eyes than me," Heckingbottom said. "He has some camera that we've never seen.
"I could go back to where there's absolutely no debate, black-and-white decisions for us that we haven't got. There were also two instances in that game that should have been red cards for them, which weren't. Look at them.
"If that's how we want to debrief games, going over 'shoulda, woulda, coulda', we can do, but I'm more bothered about what we can do to change. It's not my job to look after referees.
"I could be looking at Marv's tackle first half, Marv's elbow first half. It's not going to get me the three points we deserve.
"So I don't worry too much about that at all. And no-one can show me that it wasn't a penalty."

Abstract: We use multi-electrode recordings from cat primary visual cortex and investigate whether a simple linear classifier can extract information about the presented stimuli. We find that information is extractable and that it even lasts for several hundred milliseconds after the stimulus has been removed. In a fast sequence of stimulus presentation, information about both new and old stimuli is present simultaneously and nonlinear relations between these stimuli can be extracted. These results suggest nonlinear properties of cortical representations. The important implications of these properties for the nonlinear brain theory are discussed.

CRUEL INTENTIONS (1999) A Film Review by Ted Prigge Copyright 1999 Ted Prigge
Director: Roger Krumble Writer: Roger Krumble (based on the novel "Les Liasons Dangereuses" by Cholderos de Laclos) Starring: Ryan Phillippe, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Reese Witherspoon, Selma Blair, Joshua Jackson, Sean Patrick Thomas, Eric Mabius, Louise Fletcher, Christine Baranski, Tara Reid, Swoosie Kurtz
We've been overly munundated with many things, but most recently, it's been teen movies, which fall into either updates of 80s slasher movies or 80s John Hughes movies. Neither of them have actually spawned anything even remotely good (the worst case, so far, being the dreaded 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'), but last year a film came out that was intensely enjoyable all without being actually good. That was 'Wild Things,' the trashy, B-movie with a vengeance John MacNaughton flick that came out last year that was, yes, a pretty terrible movie, but was so gleefully nonchalant in its trashiness that it took on a thumbs-up worthy guilty pleasure facade. I'm, however, not going to compare that film to this one; the only thing these two films have in common is an air of sexual openness that actually goes to help the film rather than detract from. 'Wild Things,' after all, was trash; it had a silly story that would have made its way to either a soft core direct to video release or a less-steamy made-for-TV USA movie. 'Cruel Intentions,' on the other hand, boasts not only strong, but incredible source material: freakin' 'Les Liasons Dangereuses,' for Christ's sake -- the same story that has inspired at least one opera, a play, and a couple of film adaptations (the most notable being the terrific 1988 Stephen Frears' flick, 'Dangerous Liasons,' a favorite of mine). So y'all should basically know the story - that of two mischievous aristocrats who plot to devirginize a virgin while also plotting Machiavellian humiliations for others who have humiliated them.
It should come as no shock to you that this is a modernized story, taking place in the upper crust of Manhattan society, with the main characters being spoiled teenagers who live in a world devoid of adult supervision (could this be a satire?). The two main characters are basically the same: one Sebastian Valmont (Ryan Philippe) and the obscure object of his desire, Kathryn Merteuil-Valmont (Sarah Michelle Gellar), his attractive, sex-kitten stepsister.  She calls on Sebastian to seduce her, but he's already up for destroying the credibility of another: Annette Hargrove (Reese Witherspoon), a perpendicular teen who has gone so far as to write a column in 'Seventeen' about how she'll resist the, uh, urge until after marriage, and, as it just so happens, is spending a month or two at their aunt's estate. The two make a bet: if he can't seduce Annette and succeed within a certain amount of time, she wins his beloved car; if he does, he can have her ('You can put it wherever you want' is her deal-closer).
Refreshingly enough, the story follows the same basic plot elements, and even provides many of the same characters of the original, including Cecille's music teacher/love interest (Sean Patrick Thomas) and Sebastian's friend (Joshua Jackson) who's sleeping with a pawn in the story (Eric Mabius). And it has the same basic plot structure: as Sebastian successfully woos Annette, he accidentally falls in love with her, as a so-called ironic twist. Big difference, though: in the original story (and '88 film), this is handled to near perfection. No big theatrics, no cornball emotions; its subtlety seems real, and it never felt like the character was being betrayed at all. That has been replaced here by, well, cornball emotions and spell-out-the-theme scenes which stand out as annoyingly preachy and mechanical. Whenever a scene comes up where Sebastian is either around Annette when he realizes he loves her or is dealing with it, it's head-nodding time, and by the end, it has reached a climax that feels horribly contrived and fake, not to mention hilariously condescending. The big confrontation between Sebastian and Cecille's lover, in fact, is awfully executed: all three characters involved just seem to stumble upon eachother at the same time in a city the size of New York, and its conclusion is atrociously rote. Following it is the worst part of all: a sequence so horribly preachy and moralistic that I couldn't believe they seriously used a) slow motion photography at those key moments, or b) that darned song, which just spells out the theme (for the record, it's the Verve's otherwise nifty 'Bittersweet Symphony'). I hate to keep up with the comparisons, but just watch the ending of 'Dangerous Liaisons' - the booing and the tear destroying the touted face - and you'll see how hackneyed and, well, terrible this one is (just one annoying side comment: did they actually have to title the memoirs?).
But other than the downhill escalation the film takes at around the hour mark, 'Cruel Intentions' isn't all that bad.  Even its otherwise-considered offensive elements - its handling of interracial relationships, two flat-out gay characters, and a lengthy, controversial lesbian kiss between Gellar and Blair (the camera just closes right in on it and holds for, oh, 30 seconds, showing tongue and all) - aren't so offensive as they are neat 90s twists on the story, just to give it some extra umph along the way. Even the acting's not bad. We all know the Witherspoon's a talented actress, but here she's the best thing about the movie: she gives her character a surprising amount of depth - after you hear about her and first meet her, she's hardly what you'd expect. Gellar...well, she's since grown on me from those days when my female friend made me watch episodes of 'Swan's Crossing' with her, thus destroying any intense likeability I may have ever had for her. But here, she's nice and icy, hardly to the point Glenn Close was once upon a time, but at least she gives it the old college try (and nearly succeeds - maybe some work towards the end would have helped her a bit, but go ahead and blame the writer on this one). Philippe is also slowly growing on me, what since 'Last Summer' and '54,' but he's still not there. His giddy detachment in the opening hour are nice, but his attempt at a transformation is astoundingly inept and little more than a descent into soap opera acting, terrible delivery of terrible lines and all.
The rest of the cast is merely fine, with kudos going to Joshua Jackson for his now trademark nonchalantness of line delivery and defames going to Selma Blair who overacts her goofy part so much that I nearly dreaded every time her character appeared on screen. And the direction is nicely sleek and even a bit on the sexy side now and then. Do I think this was a successful adaptation of a great piece of literature? Well, maybe. Is it a good film, though? Yeah, I'd say so. I'd even go as far as to give it a recommendation, basically because this film knows that it's basically trashy, romance novel stuff and not the deeper stuff of a great French novel. As it was fun to watch Malkovich and Close toy with people in 'Dangeous Liasons' (I'll forever have the image of Malkovich writing to his beloved Pfieffer on the posterior of a courtesan embroidered on my membrane), it's fun to watch Philippe and Gellar do the same to the characters in this film. But what made 'Dangeous Liasons' worth it all was the third act, where Malkovich really fell in love, really blew it, and Close was finally exposed (again, great final shot - I can't mention that enough). Here, it's not unlike watching, well, teenagers do the same material: you don't feel anywhere near the same about the ending; you're too busy going 'aw, aren't they cute as they try their darndest at tough source material.' Well, they gave it the old high school try, but this will always be a teen adaptation and never just an adaptation. Sorry, guys.

Pttr hopes to create a bridge between stray animals in need of a second chance and loving homes before euthanasia occurs. We want to give strays the opportunity to live a healthier lifestyle with a caring owner in a loving home.
Shelters currently run on legacy systems that are outdated which decrease efficiency in terms of keeping track of all records. This also allows for low adoption rates which then leads to euthanasia. At Pttr, we are currently working on getting these shelters and rescue groups to utilize our platform to bring everyone into the 21st century.


Playing with an idea that forms get completed in sections and the user can see the progress as well. Have not
emphasized on responsivenes much. So view in desktop mode.
Playing with Bootstrap 3 grid system. This is the second project I am doing on the same day to make up for the
past few days that went without any projects !

Learning the basics of Computer Vision
This article is written by Chahat Deep Singh. (chahat[at]terpmail.umd.edu)
Please contact Chahat if there are any errors.
Table of Contents:
We have seen fascinating things that our camera applications like instagram, snachat or your default phone app do. It can be creating a full structure of your face for facial recognition or simply creating a panorama from multiple images. In this course, we will learn how to recreate such applications but before that we require to learn about the basics like filtering, features, camera models and transformations. This article is all about laying down the groundwork for the aforementioned applications. Let’s start with understanding the most basic aspects of an image: features.
## 2. Features and Convolution
### 2.1 What are features?
What are features in Machine vision? Is it similar as Human visual perception? This question can have different answers but one thing is certain that feature detection is an imperative building block for a variety of computer vision applications. We all have seen Panorama Stitching in our smartphones or other softwares like Adobe Photoshop or AutoPano Pro. The fundamental idea in such softwares is to align two or more images before seamlessly stitching into a panorama image. Now back to the question, what kind of features should be detected before the alignment? Can you think of a few types of features?
Certain locations in the images like corners of a building or mountain peaks can be considered as features. These kinds of localized features are known as corners or keypoints or interest points and are widely used in different applications. These are characterized by the appearance of neigborhood pixels surrounding the point (or local patches). Fig. 1 demonstrates strong and weak corner features.
The other kind of feature is based on the orientation and local appearance and is generally a good indicator of object boundaries and occlusion events. (Occlusion means that there is something in the field of view of the camera but due to some sensor/optical property or some other scenario, you can’t.) There are multiple ways to detect certain features. One of the way is convolution.
### 2.2 Convolution
Ever heard of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)? What is convolution? Is it really that ‘convoluted’? Let’s try to answer such questions but before that let’s understand what convolution really means! Think of it as an operation of changing the pixel values to a new set of values based on the values of the nearby pixels. Didn’t get the gist of it? Don’t worry!
Convolution is an operation between two functions, resulting in another function that depicts how the shape of first function is modified by the second function. The convolution of two functions, say and is written is or and is defined as:
Let’s try to visualize convolution in one dimension. The following figure depcits the convolution (in black) of the two functions (blue and red). One can think convolution as the common area under the functions and .
Since we would be dealing with discrete functions in this course (as images are of the size ), let us look at a simple discrete 1D example:
and
.
Let the output be denoted by . What would be the value of ? In order to compute this, we slide so that it is centered around i.e.
.
We multiply the corresponding values of and and then add up the products i.e.
It can be inferred that the function (also known as kernel or the filter) is computing a windowed average of the image.
Similarly, one can compute 2D convolutions (and hence any dimensions convolution) as shown in image below:
These convolutions are the most commonly used operations for smoothing and sharpening tasks. Look at the example down below:
Different kernels (or convolution masks) can be used to perform different level of sharpness:
Apart from the smoothness operations, convolutions can be used to detect features such as edges as well. The figure given below shows
how different kernel can be used to find the edges in an image using convolution.
A good explanation of convolution can also be found here.
Clearly as the name suggests, deconvolution is simply a process that reverses the effects of convolution on the given information. Deconvolution is implemented (generally) by computing the Fourier Transform of the signal and the transfer function (where ). In frequency domain, (assuming no noise) we can say that: . Fourier Transformation: Optional Read, Video
One can perform deblurring and restoration tasks using deconvolution as shown in figure:
Now, since we have learned the fundamentals about convolution and deconvolution, let’s dig deep into Kernels or point operators). One can apply small convolution filters of size or or so on. These can be Sobel, Roberts, Prewitt, Laplacian operators etc. We’ll learn about them in a while. Operators like these are a good approximation of the derivates in an image. While for a better texture analysis in an image, larger masks like Gabor filters are used.
But what does it mean to take the derivative of an image? The derivative or the gradient of an image is defined as:
It is important to note that the gradient of an image points towards the direction in which the intensity changes at the highest rate and thus the direction is given by:
Moreover, the gradient direction is always perpendicular to the edge and the edge strength can by given by:
. In practice, the partial derivatives can be written (in discrete form) as the different of values between consecutive pixels i.e. as and as .
Figure below shows commonly used gradient operators.
You can implement the following in MATLAB using the function edge
with various methods for edge detection.
Before reading any further, try the following in MATLAB:
- C = conv2(A, B)
Refer
- BW = edge(I, method, threshold, sigma)
Refer
- B = imfilter(A, h, 'conv')
Refer
Sobel Operator:
This operator has two kernels that are convolved with the original image I
in order to compute the approximations of the derivatives.
The horizontal and vertical are defined as follows:
The gradient magnitude can be given as: and the gradient direction can be written as: . Figure below shows the input image and its output after convolving with Sobel operator.
Prewitt:
Roberts:
Canny:
Unlike any other filters, we have studied above, canny goes a bit further. In Canny edge detection, before finding the intensities of the image, a gaussian filter is applied to smooth the image in order to remove the noise. Now, one the gradient intensity is computed on the imge, it uses non-maximum suppression to suppress only the weaker edges in the image. Refer: A computational approach to edge detection. MATLAB
has an approxcanny
function that finds the edges using an approximate version which provides faster execution time at the expense of less precise detection. Figure below illustrates different edge detectors.
### Corner Detection:
Now that we have learned about different edge features, let’s understand what corner features are! Corner detection is used to extract certain kinds of features and common in panorama stitching (Project 1), video tracking (project 3), object recognition, motion detection etc.
What is a corner? To put it simply, a corner is the intersection of two edges. One can also define corner as: if there exist a point in an image such that there are two defintive (and different) edge directions in a local neighborhood of that point, then it is considered as a corner feature. In computer vision, corners are commonly written as ‘interest points’ in literature.
The paramount property of a corner detector is the ability to detect the same corner in multiple images under different translation, rotation, lighting etc. The simplest approach for corner detection in images is using correlation. (Correlation is similar in nature to convolution of two functions). Optional Read: Correlation
In MATLAB, try the following:
- corner(I, 'detectHarrisFeatures')
: Harris Corners
- corner(I, 'detectMinEigenFeatures')
: Shi-Tomasi Corners
- detectFASTFeatures(I)
: FAST: Features from Accelerated Segment Test

Sheiff: SC 10-year-old killed by friend, parent charged
LANCASTER, S.C. (WVLT/WBTV) -- A South Carolina boy was accidentally shot and killed by his friend while they were left unsupervised at a home in Lancaster County, officials said.
According to WBTV, Dylan Twitty, a 5th grade student, was shot before 4 p.m on November 15 on Coastal Way. He was found on the ground between two mobile homes by students getting off a bus. WBTV said the students performed CPR until first responders got on scene.
The boy was rushed to an area hospital where he died shortly after.
Investigators revealed that Dylan had been visiting a friend, also 10, and they were at home alone when the friend brought out a 9mm handgun his parent had left hidden under a mattress.
Officials said the boys were playing with the gun in the living room of the home when it went off and Dylan was shot. Investigators said the friend carried him out of the home and left him on the ground where he was found by the older children getting off the bus.
The friend's parent, who has not been named, was charged with unlawful neglect of a child.
“This was a heartbreaking and tragic loss for the family of this ten-year-old victim, and everybody who knows about this case including all the officers who have and continue to work on it have been affected by what happened," said Lancaster County Sheriff Barry Faile. "Although we are confident in the basic facts of this incident, this is an ongoing investigation. We are working closely with Solicitor Randy Newman and his staff to determine what steps are next for this child and whether charges are appropriate for any others involved in this case regarding the circumstances leading up to and following this incident.”


The Best Children’s Books Of All Time—From J.R.R. Tolkien to J.K. Rowling

We all have cherished books that were an integral part of our childhood, stories that we remember curling up with in the armchair, having read to us at bedtime and that we shared with our friends. As a mom of two, I love sharing books with my own kids that I read and reread as a child. The best children’s books don’t have a shelf-life but withstand the test of time. Here’s my pick of the best books to spark a grade-school child’s imagination. These reads will take them to faraway lands or on fun journeys that will encourage them to dream big. Some are old, some more modern, but all are classics in their own way.
The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis
When four siblings step through a wardrobe door they end up in C.S. Lewis’ land of Narnia where animals talk and it’s always winter but never Christmas. The characterization is fantastic, the descriptions are magical, it’s sometime sinister but always enchanting. A true children’s classic that allows you to escape to a completely different world.
Ramona the Pest by Beverly Cleary
The Pest was Beverly Cleary’s first book in which Ramona was allowed to take center stage (she’d been a character in a previous story), and the start of a series of books spanning more than three decades. Ramona’s magic is the fact that she’s just an ordinary girl, getting up to ordinary childhood adventures. She’s resilient, prone to getting into trouble, creative and sees the world a bit differently. For a character created back in 1955, she was a female protagonist ahead of her time. I read Ramona books cover-to-cover as a child, and my daughter and her friends have done the same.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl
Chocolate-filled rivers, everlasting gobstoppers, fizzy lifting drink and giant candy canes … what’s not to love about this classic 1964 novel by Roald Dahl?  It was difficult to pick just one of the writer’s works for this list, but Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is most children’s first introduction to Dahl. The pages are filled with scrumptious language and fantastic characters.
Wonder by R.J. Palacio
I have to admit that I watched the film Wonder before reading this book; my son raved about it, and once I had picked it up I couldn’t put it down. The Wonder story follows August, a young boy with a congenital facial deformity, and the cleverly written narrative switches between different voices, including Auggie’s own, his sister and friends. Powerful and moving, and ultimately a story about simply being kind.
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkein
Amazon recommends The Hobbit for 7th graders, 12 years and up, and it’s certainly a much faster-paced, shorter and easier read than the Lord of the Rings. The children’s fantasy novel first published in 1937 but has never lost its appeal for young and old alike.  As we follow Bilbo Baggins in his reluctant journey with a wizard and 13 dwarves to reclaim some stolen dwarf treasure, there’s action and adventure in every chapter. And who doesn’t dream of a mentor like Gandalf to steer us through life?
Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein
This book is an eclectic mix of funny poems, drawings and life lessons that somehow just works. Where the Sidewalk Ends is one of those that you can read and be thoroughly entertained by as a child, and then pick up again as an adult and realize there’s greater depth to the writing still to be explored. A great book for sharing at bedtime as you can pick it up, read a couple of poems and then put it down again. And it’s a fantastic introduction (or reintroduction) to poetry.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J. K. Rowling
You’d have to have been living under a Sorcerer’s Stone for the past two decades if you don’t know of Harry Potter. This title is the very first in J.K. Rowling’s series of Harry Potter books, released in 1997. Although written for children and young adults, you don’t need to be a child to enjoy and be entertained by these stories of Harry, his friends and their fantastical adventures at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry —and don’t think that just because you’ve seen the films that you don’t need to read the books. The characters and plot lines are more developed, the use of language is brilliant and the films leave an awful lot out.
When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit by Judith Kerr
I have to confess that this is my all-time favorite children's book. Written by Judith Kerr—famed of course for the Tiger Who Came To Tea, which is a classic for younger readers—this book is based on Kerr’s own experiences as a Jewish girl fleeing Nazi Germany with her family. It’s a sensitively written account of what it was like to live as a child during that time, told through the narrator Anna’s nine-year-old eyes. A real-life history lesson—read, read it again and gift it to every child you know.
Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
Jeffrey is an orphan, sent to live with his at-war aunt and uncle. He decides to escape—and ends up running into a racially divided town where he starts to make his own mark. Maniac Magee deals with some hard-hitting issues around race and prejudice, but there are a lot of funny and light-hearted moments in the book too. There’s a reason why this book makes it onto many middle-grade reading lists.
Coraline by Neil Gaiman
A dark fairy-tale by Neil Gaiman about a curious girl who, through boredom, opens a locked door and in doing that opens up the entrance to a whole new world. Coraline is reminiscent of the worlds of the Narnia Chronicles and Alice in Wonderland where surreal, fantastic and sometimes downright-creepy things happen, and like all good fairy tales it does have a sinister side. A quick read but one that completely draws you in and is set to become a true classic.


Sunday, hot. Despite cold, decide to step outside. Spent last night contemplating where to walk today. Considered one of Amsterdam’s three sewage farms (RWZI), preferably Amsterdam West, that being the most extensive. Probably too far. Then, noticed a near continuous stretch of green going from my place close to the banks of the Amstel, along Amstel, Amstel Park and out to Amsterdamse Bos.
Set off around 1pm, back around 7:30pm. Struck by the relaxed, fair-like and altogether quaint atmosphere of Amstel Pk. Quite busy, then step across Roud Brug and into the wonders of the 60s social housing of Amsterdam Zuid. Today it is like a ghost town - hardly a soul in site. The high white blocks are laid out around large open spaces - high boulevards of trees, waterways and planted walkways - a winning combination of prestressed concrete parkitecure and lush greenery. These deeply peaceful spaces fill me with the same sense of academic bliss as one finds in the most secluded of Cambridge college quadrangles. Onwards to the Bos. Lying before the entrance to the Bos from this approach are the highly decorated coffins of the Pharaohs of Amsterdamse Bos, the most notable of whom was Tootin’ Cartoon.
Reached the Bos, pass possible location of the nude spa (note for future reference), and head to the long long water of Bosbaan. I could watch the giant KLM planes taking off over the water for hours - blue planes in a blue blue sky over a deep blue water. I notice a heron perched close to the water’s edge. Another chance for the perfect heron shot. I know I will get it one day, perhaps today is that day? I’m crouching down, still, eye firm to the lense when I hear laughter from behind me. As I move away, it then dawns on me that the party behind think I’m taking shots of the topless woman sunbathing a few feet to the left. No! It’s the heron! Honest! Time to move on and hide my shame in the depths of the Bos…
…Following paths inwards, I notice a distinct area of raised ground on the horizon - no, it can’t be! Surely this must be a mirage! It’s a…hill! First hill I’ve seen in this country, let alone city. I race onwards to this ridge of high ground. Summit. Questions. Is this a real hill or man made? It rises unnaturally steeply and falls away as such on the other side. Lots of stonework about. I find an information board containing some old black and white photos of men with shovels, and an old vista showing how it used to look– something akin in style to the stretch down to the water at Versaille or in Vienna. I knew it was too good to be true. Time to head back. Sapped of energy given the cold. Just manage to limp home.

 In this fantasy the gentleman is a distinguished soldier, a polished diplomat and an insatiable lover all rolled into one. Immaculately clothed, ingeniously armed this warrior/lover creation of Ian Fleming emerges once again after forty year of immortal existence. Bring out the caviar, serve the champagne and watch the spectacular display of destructive fireworks caused by Bond, Mr James Bond.
It must be Bond's legacy to taste every woman from every walk of life. If women could be compared to fine food, then my favourite Bond dishes would be the delectable Honey Ryder submerged in layers of chocolate, the Pussy Galore dipped in whipped cream, and Alotta Fagina with Alotta Fagina - sorry that's a missing page from my Austin Powers cook book. Like any good Bond film, this movie begins with the usual culinary delights of finger food appetisers, before moving on to the spicy main course. Terri Hatcher, better know as Superman's girl, tries her hand with Bond, but only lasts a good undressing and bedding before being murdered by a jealous husband. Having served the purpose of a cocktail, the next course is the perfect example of exquisite oriental cooking, the sort that wriggles and sizzles on your plate. I'm referring to the sumptuous Michelle Yeoh. I freely admit to being a sucker for woman in dark leathers with multitalented use of their hands and legs. I haven't been this fascinated by the thinking/fighting woman well, since Bambi and Thumper decided to go group action with Bond.
Once again, the question asked is how does this James (Pierce Brosnan) compare with the other Bonds? Well he's not as manly as the heartthrob Connery of the sixties, not as clean cut as the single dimensional Moore of the seventies, and not as emotional as the ordinary Dalton of the eighties. Brosnan is like the corporate executive of the nineties deciding he needs a bit of Rambo in his life. So far he's doing a good job interpreting the nineties Bond and should hold together for another decade.
The plot surrounds events of news making ground breaking news. Evil Media Mogul Elliot Carver (Jonathon Pryce) has decided that there is no better news than bad news, and the best publicity usually comes from oneself. Why wait for heaven and hell to arrive when you can create it yourself. Now that the Soviet Union is no longer considered a serious threat to world peace, the Chinese have become unwitting victims for beginning WWIII with the British. Carver's plan basically surrounds the use of stealth boats downing naval vessels of both sides and antagonising all concerned.
 A mixture of light-hearted humour sprinkled over the noisy, undertones of special effect driven action, with a coating of classy babes to help the food go down with as little indigestion as possible. My compliment to Cubby Brocolli for once again bringing as back the Bond that every man wants to be.

This method is asynchronous.
This method is asynchronous.
See ContractDecoder.decodeReturnValue.
If the contract artifact is missing its bytecode, using this method, rather than the one in ContractDecoder, can sometimes provide additional decoding information.
This method is asynchronous.
This method is asynchronous.
This mostly behaves as ProjectDecoder.events.
However, unlike other variants of this function, this one, by default, restricts to events originating from this instance's address.
If you don't want to restrict like that, you can explicitly use address: undefined
in the options to disable this.
(You can also of course set a different address to restrict to that.)
Used to determine what events to fetch; see the documentation on the EventOptions type for more.
This method is asynchronous.
Returns information about the state of the contract, but does not include information about the storage or decoded variables. See the documentation for the ContractState type for more.
The block to inspect the contract's state at. Defaults to latest. See BlockSpecifier for legal values.
This method is asynchronous.
Opposite of watchMappingKey; unwatches the specified mapping key. See watchMappingKey for more on how watching mapping keys works, and on how the parameters work.
Note that unwatching a mapping key will also unwatch all its descendants.
E.g., if m
is of type mapping(uint => mapping(uint => uint))
, then
unwatching m[0]
will also unwatch m[0][0]
, m[0][1]
, etc, if these
are currently watched.
This method is asynchronous.
Decodes an individual contract variable; returns its value as a Result. See the documentation for variables() for various caveats that also apply here.
If the variable can't be located, throws an exception.
The name (or numeric ID, if you know that) of the variable. Can be given as a qualified name, allowing one to get at shadowed variables from base contracts. If given by ID, can be given as a number or numeric string.
The block to inspect the contract's state at. Defaults to latest. See BlockSpecifier for legal values.
This method is asynchronous.
Decodes the contract's variables; returns an array of these decoded variables. See the documentation of the [[DecodedVariable]] type for more.
Note that variable decoding can only operate in full mode; if the decoder wasn't able to start up in full mode, this method will throw a ContractAllocationFailedError.
Note that decoding mappings requires first watching mapping keys in order to get any results; see the documentation for watchMappingKey. Additional methods to make mapping decoding a less manual affair are planned for the future.
Also, due to a technical limitation, it is not currently possible to usefully decode internal function pointers. See the FunctionInternalValue documentation and the README for more on how these are handled.
The block to inspect the contract's state at. Defaults to latest. See BlockSpecifier for legal values.
This method is asynchronous.
Watches a mapping key; adds it to the decoder's list of watched mapping keys. This affects the results of both variables() and variable(). When a mapping is decoded, only the values at its watched keys will be included in its value.
Note that it is possible to watch mappings that are inside structs, arrays, other mappings, etc; see below for more on how to do this.
Note that watching mapping keys is only possible in full mode; if the decoder wasn't able to start up in full mode, this method will throw an exception.
(A bad variable name will cause an exception though; that input is checked.)
The variable that the mapping lives under; this works like the nameOrId argument to variable(). If the mapping is a top-level state variable, put the mapping itself here. Otherwise, put the top-level state variable it lives under.
Further arguments to watchMappingKey, if given, will be interpreted as indices into or members of the variable identified by the variable argument; see the example. Array indices and mapping keys are specified by value; struct members are specified by name.
Values (for array indices and mapping keys) may be given in any format understood by Truffle Encoder; see the documentation for [[Encoder.ProjectEncoder.wrap|ProjectEncoder.wrap]] for details.
Note that if the path to a given mapping key includes mapping keys above it, any ancestors will also be watched automatically.
Generated using TypeDoc
The ContractInstanceDecoder class. Decodes storage for a specified instance. Also, decodes transactions, logs, and return values. See below for a method listing.
Note that when using this class to decode transactions, logs, and return values, it does have one advantage over using the ProjectDecoder or ContractDecoder. If the artifact for the class does not have a deployedBytecode field, the ProjectDecoder (and therefore also the ContractDecoder) will not be able to tell that this instance is of that class, and so will fail to decode transactions sent to it or logs originating from it, and will fall back to ABI mode when decoding return values received from it. However, the ContractInstanceDecoder has that information and will make use of it, making it possible for it to decode transactions sent to this instance, or logs originating from it, or decode return values received from it in full mode, even if the deployedBytecode field is misssing.


CORE CONCEPTS
Personal Reflections on my Learning Journey
Describe the impact the core learning has had on your Foundations learning journey:
The core learning has enabled me to evaluate myself, and my core strengths and weaknesses as they have evolved throughout Foundations. This has been essential to my learning process as I have been able to reflect on not just the skills I have which help me to succeed, but also recognise and change any habbits that may be causing blocks in my learning.
Core has taught me the soft skills which are sought after in the Tech industry, and how I can hone those skills to increase my chances of gaining a career as a developer.
What are 1 - 3 new things you have learned about yourself as a result of the core learning?
I have learned a few things, but the top three would be -
- It is important that I approach each day with intention, utilising the mediation tools from Foundations, and not harbouring negative thoughts.
- Putting information in context is really valuable to my learning, to build those neural networks, I always want to make sure I see relationships between concepts.
- Sometimes I switch between a growth and fixed mindset; it is important to recognise when I am exhibiting static behaviour, as I want to also be in the best zone for learning
What has surprised you the most about the core learning?
I suppose, how obvious, yet how undervalued it has been in my learning journey or any aspect of life up until now! I enjoyed the core learning, but was also surprised upon realising that once I had the knowledge and tools, they were actually really useful and I was able to start implementing them in my everyday life.
What was the most challenging aspects of the core learning?
I didn't find the core learning material too challening in itself, it was (and still is) in the implementation of it! In saying that, it is not difficult once you are aware of your habbits, strengths and weaknesses to utilise that knowledge and start making improvements. It is probably more to make a daily conscious effort to use the tools and knowledge.
Any thoughts you want to share about your core learning journey in Foundations?
The more I practice and utilise the tools learned in Core, the easier they become to implement daily. They create solid mechanisms to deal with the blocks and challenges with learning technical aspects of the course, like JavaScript. Human skills are very important to develop, and should be widely taught.

Judge orders anti-Edwards ad down in Louisiana governor race
by APBATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A New Orleans judge has ordered Republican groups to remove their TV attack ad against Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards from the air, after a lawsuit challenged the ad’s claims as “demonstrably false.”
The Wednesday ruling from Judge Nakisha Ervin-Knott gives a victory to the Democratic governor. Edwards is in a tight governor’s race against Republican businessman Eddie Rispone and only days away from Saturday’s election.
The ad claims Edwards gave his West Point roommate favorable treatment in contracting for coastal project work. It was run by two GOP-backed groups, Truth in Politics and the Causeway Connection PAC. Causeway Connection intends to appeal the ruling.
Truth in Politics tweaked the ad, changing some of its wording, after facing blowback about inaccuracy. Ervin-Knott ordered even the reworked ad to come down.

Table
The table module provides styling and responsiveness for tables. Simple rules and accessible design paradigms have been used to make creating tables quick and easy. Large tables will collapse to cards when on smaller devices or, if you don't want that, they can be locked into their default, desktop view.
All examples showcased refer to the mini-default flavor, some class names and styles might differ based on the flavor you're using.
Quick overview
Presenting information the right way is very important, especially so when dealing with large amounts of data. The table module reinvents tabular data presentation, using modern styling and responsiveness to help make tables fun again for all users no matter the device size. Tables can be either vertical or horizontal, both collapsing to a card view on smaller devices, so that they are easier to view properly. Horizontal tables are also flexible, allowing you to take as little space as possible, while still providing your users with a pleasant way to view their data. Finally, like in most CSS frameworks nowadays, you can stripe your tables to make reading them slightly less tiresome for your users' eyes. Note that all of the table variants are fully accessible.
Quick start
To use the table module, simply include the link to the flavor you are using and start writing your HTML page as usual. One suggestion we will make is to add the following line inside your HTML page's
to utilize the viewport meta tag:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Table layout utilizes the

HTML element with the following structure (usual tabular structure):
- On the outermost level, there is the

element. - If you want to include a

element, it must by the first element inside the

element. - Following the above, you need to add a

element. Inside it, you should usually add one

element, which contains one or more
elements. - Immediately after the

element, you can add a

element, if you want to. Inside it, you should usually add one or more

elements, which contain one or more
elements. - Finally, add your

element. Inside it, you should usually add one or more

elements, which contain one or more
elements. For each
element, specify adata-label
attribute equal to the heading of the column. This enables responsibility for your table, so that the values in the columns will be properly labeled on mobile devices.

Notes
- Tables are responsive by default and will change to a card-like view below a certain screen width. If you'd rather not make them responsive, check the last section on this page.
- Specifying the
data-label
attribute is essential for the responsive version of a table to display properly. You can, however, use a value different from the column's name. Make sure it does not confuse your users, though. - We strongly suggest you avoid adding multiple rows in your

element, as it could cause problems with accessibility. However, if you absolutely must, you might want to check this codepen for an idea on how to deal with irregular border styling.

 Chad	 Wilberts	 MrOne

Don't: Remember to always add a data-label
attribute to your
elements, as the table's card view is very dependent on them to display properly.
elements, however, do not require or utilize this attribute.

People

Don't: The

element must always be immediately after the

element, if included.

Don't: Avoid inserting
elements inside your

element. If you want to make your tables horizontal or preset their styling in a manner different from the one shown in the previous examples, check the below sections.

Don't: Avoid using
elements inside your

. You should use a

element instead.
Scrollable tables

| Norman | Jones | NormalJones |
| Trevor | Heidel | Heidi |
Scrollable tables can be created by simply adding the .scrollable
class to the root element of your table (i.e. the

element). Scrollable tables are flexible, so they can accommodate any amount of data rows and, if there is a lot of data, they will make their overflow scrollable. Remember to add the data-label
attribute, as shown in the previous section, to allow your tables to be responsive without any errors. Keep in mind, however, that .horizontal
tables do not support the

element.

Notes
- Due to
.scrollable
tables utilizing the Flexbox Layout, some older browsers may not properly display these tables. This is especially true with legacy versions of Internet Explorer. - Mixing the Flexible Layout Module with

elements seems to upset some browsers. We noticed this on an older mobile version of Firefox, where our implementation should work in theory, given the fact that both features are properly supported. If you notice any problems with.scrollable
tables, feel free to submit a new issue on Github. .scrollable
tables have a default maximum height of400px
. If you want to change this, you should check out the customization page.

Don't: We already explicitly stated that, due to the way .scrollable
tables are styled, the

element is not supported. Please refer to the last section of this page if you need to use this element and you want to have a scrollable table layout.

Scrollable tables are very similar to horizontal ones and can be created by simply adding the .scrollable
class to the root element of your table (i.e. the

element). Similarly to horizontal ones, they can accommodate as many data rows as you like, making their overflow scrollable, while they do not support the

element. As usual, remember to add the data-label
attribute, as shown in the previous section, to allow your tables to be responsive without any errors.

tables, feel free to submit a new issue on Github.

Don't: Avoid comibing the .horizontal
and .scrollable
classes on the same element, as this can cause unexpected behavior.
Table variants & matrices
| Lawful | Neutral | Chaotic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Good | Yoda | Luke Skywalker | Chewbacca |
| Neutral | C-3PO | Boba Fett | Han Solo |
| Bad | Darth Vader | Emperor Palpatine | Jabba the Hutt |
Tables are responsive by default, however you can disable this functionality for one or more tables (normal or .horizontal
), using the .preset
class. This class can also be used for a multitude of things, like dealing with tables not allowing you to have
elements inside the

element, building matrices (i.e. tables with a header column and a header row) etc. Finally, you can make your tables use a different color for every other row, using the .striped
class.
Sample code
The sample code is a bit lengthy, so we hid it by default to make it easier for mobile device users to read this page. Click or tap on Show sample code below to see the code sample for this example. By the way, we present a sample for a matrix table in he first example, but you can use the same principles and classes to create any table layout you wish.

Notes
- Making a table
.striped
also affects the color of the cards in their responsive view on mobile devices. - If you create a
.preset
table, which you do not want to alter via Javascript to be responsive at any time in the future, you can omit thedata-label
attributes.

Do: The first row in a preset matrix table or any table without a

element will have an extra border at the top. You can use a generic class to set border-top: 0;
for the elements inside that row to fix this.


This module provides the ability to save the grid state, and restore it when the user returns to the page.
No UI is provided, the caller should provide their own UI/buttons as appropriate. Usually the navigate events would be used to save the grid state and restore it.


Command runs specified configuration if configuration is absent prints all available for the project. There are two modes: TILL_STARTED and TILL_TERMINATED
Syntax: %runConfiguration [mode] <configurationName>
Example: %runConfiguration TILL_STARTED IDEA
