How can I manipulate the output of Information?












4












$begingroup$


If I type



Information[ProductLog]


I see



Information[ProductLog]



If I type



Framed[Information[ProductLog]]


I see



Framed[Information[ProductLog]]



This is expected, though not desired, because Information prints its output, rater than returning it. However, I want to get access to the text of the description, or the boxes of the description, or something, to, e.g., put the descriptions of functions in columns or rows. How do I do things like this?

    The output cells are created by CellPrint. You can capture the cell expressions with Block[{CellPrint = Sow}, Reap@Information[ProductLog] ], but I'm not sure that's what you want.

You may use the "PlaintextUsage" or "TypesetUsage"property of WolframLanguageData.



WolframLanguageData["ProductLog", "PlaintextUsage"]


or



WolframLanguageData[ToString@ProductLog, "PlaintextUsage"]


gives




"ProductLog[z] gives the principal solution for w in z[LongEqual]we^w. ProductLog[k, z] gives the k^th solution."



Note the escapes like "[LongEqual]" will evaluate to their symbol in strings in Mathematica/Wolfram Language.



For typeset lines then



WolframLanguageData["ProductLog", "TypesetUsage"][[1, 1]]



Mathematica graphics




Hope this helps.

A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

Image
0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{...

Calculate evaluation metrics using cross_val_predict sklearn

Image
1 In the sklearn.model_selection.cross_val_predict page it is stated: Generate cross-validated estimates for each input data point. It is not appropriate to pass these predictions into an evaluation metric. Can someone explain what does it mean? If this gives estimate of Y (y prediction) for every Y (true Y), why can't I calculate metrics such as RMSE or coefficient of determination using these results? python scikit-learn cross-validation share | improve this question edited Nov 28 '18 at 17:52 desertnaut 20.3k 7 43 79 ...
