Building a nested vector in Clojure - clojure

My goal is to build a nested vector of dimension n consisting of a single element p. As an example let me choose n=2 and p=1, so the output would be:
[[1 1] [1 1]]

Probably, you want something like this:
(defn square-matrix [n p]
(->> p (repeat n) (repeat n)))
Or, if you need vectors (not seqs):
(defn square-matrix [n p]
(->> p (repeat n) vec (repeat n) vec))

I think what you want is (->> p (repeat n) vec (repeat n) vec).

(defn vec-of-dim [n e]
(->> (repeat n e)
(into [])
(repeat n)
(into [])))

How to access all of the second elements within a vector that is within a vector?

I have the following structure:
(def m [[120 2] [123 88] [234 77]])
And the value
(def z 10)
I am wanting to access all of the second elements within the smaller vectors (within m) and multiply them by z and then store the result with the first element of the vector.
I.e. do the calculation (* secondvectorelement z)
And the result would look like [120 resultofcalculation]
So far I have tried:
(map #(* (second m) z ))
But I am stuck on this.
TIA.
You can use a for list comphrehension with destructuring:
(for [[fst snd] m] [fst (* snd z)])
Or a different approach with the map and update functions:
(map #(update % 1 * z) m)
user=> (map (fn [v] [(first v) (* z (second v))]) m)
([120 20] [123 880] [234 770])
Try this:
(map #(vector (first %) (* (second %) z)) m)
In my opinion, no need to def z, so:
(map #(vector (first %) (* (second %) 10)) m)
Edit: I like #erdos' answer better though
A slightly different approach:
(conj [] (apply min (map #(first %) m)) (apply * (conj (map #(second %) m) z)))
If we apply the above to OP's data we get
[120 135520]

How to define the partitions (factorizations w.r.t. concatenation) of a sequence as a lazy sequence of lazy sequences in Clojure

I am new to Clojure and I want to define a function pt taking as arguments a number n and a sequence s and returning all the partitions of s in n parts, i.e. its factorizations with respect to n-concatenation. for example (pt 3 [0 1 2]) should produce:
(([] [] [0 1 2]) ([] [0] [1 2]) ([] [0 1] [2]) ([] [0 1 2] []) ([0] [] [1 2]) ([0] [1] [2]) ([0] [1 2] []) ([0 1] [] [2]) ([0 1] [2] []) ([0 1 2] [] []))
with the order being unimportant.
Specifically, I want the result to be a lazy sequence of lazy sequences of vectors.
My first attempt for such a function was the following:
(defn pt [n s]
(lazy-seq
(if (zero? n)
(when (empty? s) [nil])
((fn split [a b]
(concat
(map (partial cons a) (pt (dec n) b))
(when-let [[bf & br] (seq b)] (split (conj a bf) br))))
[] s))))
After that, I wrote a somewhat less concise version which reduces the time complexity by avoiding useless comparisons for 1-part partitions, given below:
(defn pt [n s]
(lazy-seq
(if (zero? n)
(when (empty? s) [nil])
((fn pt>0 [n s]
(lazy-seq
(if (= 1 n)
[(cons (vec s) nil)]
((fn split [a b]
(concat
(map (partial cons a) (pt>0 (dec n) b))
(when-let [[bf & br] (seq b)] (split (conj a bf) br))))
[] s))))
n s))))
The problem with these solutions is that, although they work, they produce a lazy sequence of (non-lazy) cons's and I suspect that quite a different approach must be taken to achieve the "inner laziness". So any corrections, suggestions, explanations are welcome!
EDIT: After reading l0st3d's answer I thought I should make clear that I do not want a partition just to be a LazySeq but to be "really lazy", in the sense that a part is computed and held in memory only when it is requested.
For example, both of the functions given below produce LazySeq's but only the first one produces a "really lazy" sequence.
(defn f [n]
(if (neg? n)
(lazy-seq nil)
(lazy-seq (cons n (f (dec n))))))
(defn f [n]
(if (neg? n)
(lazy-seq nil)
(#(lazy-seq (cons n %)) (f (dec n)))))
So mapping (partial concat [a]) or #(lazy-seq (cons a %)) instead of (partial cons a) does not solve the problem.
The cons call in your split inline fn is the only place where eagerness is being introduced. You could replace that with something that lazily constructs a list, like concat:
(defn pt [n s]
(lazy-seq
(if (zero? n)
(when (empty? s) [nil])
((fn split [a b]
(concat
(map (partial concat [a]) (pt (dec n) b))
(when-let [[bf & br] (seq b)] (split (conj a bf) br))))
[] s))))
(every? #(= clojure.lang.LazySeq (class %)) (pt 3 [0 1 2 3])) ;; => true
But, reading the code I feel like it's fairly unClojurey, and I think that's to do with the use of recursion. Often you'd use things like reductions, partition-by, split-at and so to do this sort of thing. I feel like there should also be a way to make this a transducer and separate out the lazyness from the processing (so you can use sequence to say you want it lazily), but I haven't got time to work that out right now. I'll try and come back with a more complete answer soon.

How to return a lazy sequence from a loop recur with a conditional in Clojure?

Still very new to Clojure and programming in general so forgive the stupid question.
The problem is:
Find n and k such that the sum of numbers up to n (exclusive) is equal to the sum of numbers from n+1 to k (inclusive).
My solution (which works fine) is to define the following functions:
(defn addd [x] (/ (* x (+ x 1)) 2))
(defn sum-to-n [n] (addd(- n 1)))
(defn sum-to-k [n=1 k=4] (- (addd k) (addd n)))
(defn is-right[n k]
(= (addd (- n 1)) (sum-to-k n k)))
And then run the following loop:
(loop [n 1 k 2]
(cond
(is-right n k) [n k]
(> (sum-to-k n k) (sum-to-n n) )(recur (inc n) k)
:else (recur n (inc k))))
This only returns one answer but if I manually set n and k I can get different values. However, I would like to define a function which returns a lazy sequence of all values so that:
(= [6 8] (take 1 make-seq))
How do I do this as efficiently as possible? I have tried various things but haven't had much luck.
Thanks
:Edit:
I think I came up with a better way of doing it, but its returning 'let should be a vector'. Clojure docs aren't much help...
Heres the new code:
(defn calc-n [n k]
(inc (+ (* 2 k) (* 3 n))))
(defn calc-k [n k]
(inc (+ (* 3 k)(* 4 n))))
(defn f
(let [n 4 k 6]
(recur (calc-n n k) (calc-k n k))))
(take 4 (f))
Yes, you can create a lazy-seq, so that the next iteration will take result of the previous iteration. Here is my suggestion:
(defn cal [n k]
(loop [n n k k]
(cond
(is-right n k) [n k]
(> (sum-to-k n k) (sum-to-n n) )(recur (inc n) k)
:else (recur n (inc k)))))
(defn make-seq [n k]
(if-let [[n1 k1] (cal n k)]
(cons [n1 k1]
(lazy-seq (make-seq (inc n1) (inc k1))))))
(take 5 (make-seq 1 2))
;;=> ([6 8] [35 49] [204 288] [1189 1681] [6930 9800])
just generating lazy seq of candidatess with iterate and then filtering them should probably be what you need:
(def pairs
(->> [1 2]
(iterate (fn [[n k]]
(if (< (sum-to-n n) (sum-n-to-k n k))
[(inc n) k]
[n (inc k)])))
(filter (partial apply is-right))))
user> (take 5 pairs)
;;=> ([6 8] [35 49] [204 288] [1189 1681] [6930 9800])
semantically it is just like manually generating a lazy-seq, and should be as efficient, but this one is probably more idiomatic
If you don't feel like "rolling your own", here is an alternate solution. I also cleaned up the algorithm a bit through renaming/reformating.
The main difference is that you treat your loop-recur as an infinite loop inside of the t/lazy-gen form. When you find a value you want to keep, you use the t/yield expression to create a lazy-sequence of outputs. This structure is the Clojure version of a generator function, just like in Python.
(ns tst.demo.core
(:use tupelo.test )
(:require [tupelo.core :as t] ))
(defn integrate-to [x]
(/ (* x (+ x 1)) 2))
(defn sum-to-n [n]
(integrate-to (- n 1)))
(defn sum-n-to-k [n k]
(- (integrate-to k) (integrate-to n)))
(defn sums-match[n k]
(= (sum-to-n n) (sum-n-to-k n k)))
(defn recur-gen []
(t/lazy-gen
(loop [n 1 k 2]
(when (sums-match n k)
(t/yield [n k]))
(if (< (sum-to-n n) (sum-n-to-k n k))
(recur (inc n) k)
(recur n (inc k))))))
with results:
-------------------------------
Clojure 1.10.1 Java 13
-------------------------------
(take 5 (recur-gen)) => ([6 8] [35 49] [204 288] [1189 1681] [6930 9800])
You can find all of the details in the Tupelo Library.
This first function probably has a better name from math, but I don't know math very well. I'd use inc (increment) instead of (+ ,,, 1), but that's just personal preference.
(defn addd [x]
(/ (* x (inc x)) 2))
I'll slightly clean up the spacing here and use the dec (decrement) function.
(defn sum-to-n [n]
(addd (dec n)))
(defn sum-n-to-k [n k]
(- (addd k) (addd n)))
In some languages predicates, functions that return booleans,
have names like is-odd or is-whatever. In clojure they're usually
called odd? or whatever?.
The question-mark is not syntax, it's just part of the name.
(defn matching-sums? [n k]
(= (addd (dec n)) (sum-n-to-k n k)))
The loop special form is kind of like an anonymous function
for recur to jump back to. If there's no loop form, recur jumps back
to the enclosing function.
Also, dunno what to call this so I'll just call it f.
(defn f [n k]
(cond
(matching-sums? n k) [n k]
(> (sum-n-to-k n k) (sum-to-n n)) (recur (inc n) k)
:else (recur n (inc k))))
(comment
(f 1 2) ;=> [6 8]
(f 7 9) ;=> [35 49]
)
Now, for your actual question. How to make a lazy sequence. You can use the lazy-seq macro, like in minhtuannguyen's answer, but there's an easier, higher level way. Use the iterate function. iterate takes a function and a value and returns an infinite sequence of the value followed by calling the function with the value, followed by calling the function on that value etc.
(defn make-seq [init]
(iterate (fn [n-and-k]
(let [n (first n-and-k)
k (second n-and-k)]
(f (inc n) (inc k))))
init))
(comment
(take 4 (make-seq [1 2])) ;=> ([1 2] [6 8] [35 49] [204 288])
)
That can be simplified a bit by using destructuring in the argument-vector of the anonymous function.
(defn make-seq [init]
(iterate (fn [[n k]]
(f (inc n) (inc k)))
init))
Edit:
About the repeated calculations in f.
By saving the result of the calculations using a let, you can avoid calculating addd multiple times for each number.
(defn f [n k]
(let [to-n (sum-to-n n)
n-to-k (sum-n-to-k n k)]
(cond
(= to-n n-to-k) [n k]
(> n-to-k to-n) (recur (inc n) k)
:else (recur n (inc k)))))

Clojure : idiomatic weighted mean of vectors

I would like to compute the weighted mean of vectors in an idiomatic way.
To illustrate what I want, imagine I have this data :
data 1 = [2 1] , weight 1 = 1
data 2 = [3 4], weight 2 = 2
Then mean = [(2*1 + 3*2)/(1+2) (1*1 + 2*4)/(1+2)] = [2.67 3.0]
Here is my code :
(defn meanv
"Returns the vector that is the mean of input ones.
You can also pass weights just like apache-maths.stats/mean"
([data]
(let [n (count (first data))]
(->> (for [i (range 0 n)]
(vec (map (i-partial nth i) data)))
(mapv stats/mean))))
([data weights]
(let [n (count (first data))]
(->> (for [i (range 0 n)]
(vec (map (i-partial nth i) data)))
(mapv (i-partial stats/mean weights))))))
Then
(meanv [[2 1] [3 4]] [1 2]) = [2.67 3.0]
Few notes :
stats/means takes 1 or 2 inputs.
One input version has weights = 1 by default.
Two inputs is the weighted version.
i-partial is like partial but the fn has reversed args
Ex : ((partial / 2) 1) = 2
((i-partial / 2) 1 = 1/2
So my function works, no problem.
But in a way I would like to implement it in a more idiomatic Clojure.
I tried many combinations with things like (map (fn [&xs ... but it does not work.
Is it possible to take all nth elements of undefined number of vectors and directly apply stats/mean ? I mean a one-liner
Thanks
EDIT (birdspider answer)
(defn meanv
([data]
(->> (apply mapv vector data)
(mapv stats/mean)))
([data weights]
(->> (apply mapv vector data)
(mapv (i-partial stats/mean weights)))))
And with
(defn transpose [m]
(apply mapv vector m))
(defn meanv
([data]
(->> (transpose data)
(mapv stats/mean)))
([data weights]
(->> (transpose data)
(mapv (i-partial stats/mean weights)))))
(def mult-v (partial mapv *))
(def sum-v (partial reduce +))
(def transpose (partial apply mapv vector))
(defn meanv [data weights]
(->> data
transpose
(map (partial mult-v weights))
(map sum-v)
(map #(/ % (sum-v weights)))))
First thing you want to do is to transpose the matrix (get the firsts, seconds, thirds, etc.)
See this SO page.
; https://stackoverflow.com/a/10347404/2645347
(defn transpose [m]
(apply mapv vector m))
Then I would do it as follows, input checks are utterly absent.
(defn meanv
([data]
; no weigths default to (1 1 1 ...
(meanv data (repeat (count data) 1))))
([data weigths]
(let [wf (mapv #(partial * %) weigths) ; vector of weight mult fns
wsum (reduce + weigths)]
(map-indexed
(fn [i datum]
(/
; map over datum apply corresponding weight-fn - then sum
(apply + (map-indexed #((wf %1) %2) datum))
wsum))
(transpose data)))))
(meanv [[2 1] [3 4]] [1 2]) => (8/3 3) ; (2.6666 3.0)
Profit!

repeatedly apply a function to a datastructure

I would like to apply a function some number of times to a datastructure and was wondering if there is a simpler way.
;; simple map and map-incrementing function
(def a {:a 1})
(defn incmap [x] (update-in x [:a] inc))
;; best I could come up with
(reduce (fn [m _] (incmap m)) a (range 10))
;; was hoping for something like this
(repeatedly-apply incmap a 10)
You are looking for iterate:
(iterate f x)
Returns a lazy sequence of x, (f x), (f (f x)) etc. f must be free of side-effects
You just need to take the nth element:
(nth (iterate incmap a) 9)
Using the threading macro:
(-> (iterate incmap a)
(nth 9))
