Hello Ramya, apologies for the delay.
In this screenshot you sent the error message is obscuring the code. Can you double-check if there is an indent or space before your return statement? That could be a possible cause of the error.
I'm trying to create a geometry generator for a "Chamfered Cube". I've got the vertices working, but I'm stuck with creating the faces. I don't really know how I could re-arrange my algorithm to create the vertices in the right order for a triangle list / strip / fan / whatever.
Before we can start writing code we need to create a project. This is similar to most other IDEs - projects are used to bundle together all of your settings, code, and definitions into a single collection all managed from the same application (hence the name IDE, which stands for Integrated Development Environment). The alternative would be to have multiple programs to handle your development, for instance using CubeMX for your chip configuration, vi or emacs to code, standalone ST-Link drivers for programming, OpenOCD for debugging, and so on. This is a more fiddly approach, but some developers prefer it.
Observe in this block of code that there are a number of USER CODE BEGIN and USER CODE END sections marked out by comments.Any code written inside these blocks is safe and will not be deleted by the code autogenerator.Any code written outside those blocks is unsafe and will be deleted by the code autogenerator any time you edit the CubeMX settings that we looked at earlier.
STM32CubeIDE actually makes it pretty easy to compile our work and get it onto the STM32 chip. We only need to tell it what we want to do once, right at the start, and every subsequent time it will copy what we asked.The first step is to produce the first version of the compiled .elf (a binary version of our code).We need this .elf so that we can point the download tool to it.
The generator offers two main user interfaces: A Python API, configuredusing Python objects; and a command-line interface, configured usingYAML or JSON files. The Python and file-based configurations have thesame structure and are interconvertible.
The online generator service interfaces with the xcube client via awell-defined REST API; it is also possible for third-party clients tomake use of this API directly, though it is expected that the Python andcommand-line interfaces will be more convenient in most cases.
Probably the most thorough documentation is available in the Jupyterdemonotebooksin the xcube repository. These can be run in any JupyterLabenvironmentcontaining an xcube installation. They combine explanation withinteractive worked examples to demonstrate practical usage of thegenerator in typical use cases.
For the Python API in particular, the xcube APIdocumentationis generated from the docstrings included in the code itself andserves as a detailed low-level reference for individual Pythonclasses and methods. The docstrings can also be read from a Pythonenvironment (e.g. using the ? postfix in IPython or JupyterLab)or, of course, by browsing the source code itself.
The configurations for the various parts of the generator are used toinitialize a GeneratorRequest, which is then passed toxcube.core.gen2.generator.CubeGenerator.generate_cube. Thegenerate_cube method returns a cube reference which can be used toopen the cube from the output data store.
The generator can be invoked from the command line using thexcube gen2 subcommand. (Note: the subcommand xcube gen invokesan earlier, deprecated generator feature which is not compatible withthe generator framework described here.)
The command-line interface allows a service configuration for theremote generator service to be provided as a YAML or JSON file. Thisfile defines the endpoint and access credentials for an online generatorservice. If it is provided, the specified remote service will be used togenerate the cube. If it is omitted, the cube will be generated locally.The configuration file defines three values: endpoint_url,client_id, and client_secret. A typical service configurationYAML file might look as follows:
The generator service does not yet provide a remote interface to listavailable data stores, datasets, and store parameters (i.e. allowedvalues for the parameters in the table above). In a local xcube Pythonenvironment, you can list the currently available store identifiers withthe expressionlist(map(lambda e: e.name, xcube.core.store.find_data_store_extensions())).You can create a local store object for an identifier store_id withxcube.core.store.get_data_store_instance(store_id).store. The storeobject provides methods list_data_ids,get_data_store_params_schema, and get_open_data_params_schema todescribe the allowed values for the corresponding parameters. Note thatthe available stores and datasets on a remote xcube generator server maynot be the same as those available in your local xcube environment.
This configuration element defines the characteristics of the cube thatshould be generated. The Python configuration class is calledCubeConfig, and the YAML section cube_config. All parameters areoptional and will be filled in with defaults if omitted; the defaultvalues are dependent on the data store and dataset.
time_period specified the duration of a single time step in therequested cube, which determines the temporal resolution. It consists ofan integer denoting the number of time units, followed by singleupper-case letter denoting the time unit. Valid time unit specifiers areD (day), W (week), M (month), and Y (year). Examples of time_periodvalues: 1Y (one year), 2M (two months), 10D (ten days).
callable_ref is a string with the structure:, and specifies the function or class tocall when inline_code or file_set is provided. The specifiedfunction or class is handled like the _callable parameter describedabove.
inline_code is a string containing Python source code. If supplied,it should contain the definition of a function or object as describedfor the _callable parameter. The module and class identifiers forthe callable in the inline code snippet should be specified incallable_ref parameter.
file_set specifies a set of files which should be read from anfsspec file system andwhich contain a definition of a dataset processor. As withinline_code, the parameter callable_ref should also be suppliedto tell the generator which class or function in the file set is theactual processor. The parameters of file_set are identical withthose of the constructor of the corresponding Python FileSet class,and are as follows:
Welcome to the SmartCode Report Generator. SmartCode Technology uses a proprietary encryption method that compresses CPAP efficacy and usage data into codes that are accessed on the CPAP display. When the SmartCode string is entered into this report generator, the series of characters is deciphered into an easy to understand report.
In Article 4 of its regulations, the WCA lays out its requirements for cube scrambling in a competition. Nearly all cubers will also follow the most basic of these regulations at home, such as scrambling with white on the top and green on the front. This means that if people say a scramble and say there is an easy white cross, then you know how to apply the scramble to get that cross.
The picture below shows three views of a figure from the front, right, and top. The entire figure uses a total of seven cubes. Can you construct the figure using the isometric drawing tool? (Be sure to use cubes of the proper color, too.)
PSI4 has the ability to export cube files that store information aboutbasis functions, molecular orbitals, the electron density, andthe electrostatic potential (ESP). Cube files store the value of a scalarquantity on a regular Cartesian grid, and can be visualized with severalvisualization programs, some of which are free, like VMD( ).
In this example, the cubeprop()call after the energy('scf') commandexecutes the cubeprop code. The array CUBEPROP_TASKS specifies whichtasks should be executed. In this case the task 'orbitals' generates cubefiles for orbitals. The CUBEPROP_ORBITALS option specifies that cube filesshould be generated only for alpha orbitals 5 (HOMO) and 6 (LUMO) andbeta orbitals 5 (indicated as -5) and 6.If the option CUBEPROP_ORBITALS is not provided, then cube files aregenerated for all orbitals.After running, the above input will generate four files: Psi_a_5_1-B1.cube,Psi_a_6_4-A1.cube, Psi_a_5_1-B1.cube, and Psi_a_6_4-A1.cube. The subscript a inPsi_a_5_1-B1.cube indicates an alpha orbital. The first number (5) is the index of theorbital while 1-B1 indicates that this is the first orbital that belongs to the B1 irrep.The file Psi_a_5_1-B1.cube begins with two comment lines:
If your cube plots are too coarse, try to decrease the grid spacing viathe option CUBIC_GRID_SPACING. If the edges of your plot are cut thenincrease the size of the grid via the option CUBIC_GRID_OVERAGE.
The cubeprop utility can be provided a list of tasks to perform.Tasks are specified by the CUBEPROP_TASKS option, which is a list of stringsthat identify the tasks. Several tasks are available. These include:
It is important to specify the CUBEPROP_ORBITALS option whendealing with large molecules to avoid running out of disk space.For example, using the default grid spacing of0.2 Ångström, the size of a single cube file for a molecule like wateris of the order of 1.4 MB. For a molecule with 200 basis functions, the cubefiles for all the orbitals occupy more than half a GB.
