Detailed Description


The table class provides convenient access to data in tabular form. An empty 
table can be easily constructed as follows

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table()
  
If you want to add columns directly when creating the table, column names
and *column types* can be specified as follows

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table(['nameX','nameY','nameZ'], 'sfb')
  
this will create three columns called nameX, nameY and nameZ of type string,
float and bool, respectively. There will be no data in the table and thus,
the table will not contain any rows.

The following *column types* are supported:

======= ========
name     abbrev
======= ========
string     s
float      f
int        i
bool       b
======= ========

If you want to add data to the table in addition, use the following:

.. code-block:: python

  tab=Table(['nameX','nameY','nameZ'],
            'sfb',
            nameX = ['a','b','c'],
            nameY = [0.1, 1.2, 3.414],
            nameZ = [True, False, False])
            
if values for one column is left out, they will be filled with NA, but if
values are specified, all values must be specified (i.e. same number of
values per column)

)
Add a column to the right of the table.

:param col_name: name of new column
:type col_name: :class:`str`

:param col_type: type of new column (long versions: *int*, *float*, *bool*,
             *string* or short versions: *i*, *f*, *b*, *s*)

**Example:**

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table(['x'], 'f', x=range(5))
  tab.AddCol('even', 'bool', itertools.cycle([True, False]))
  print tab

  '''
  will produce the table

  ====  ====
  x     even
  ====  ====
0   True
1   False
2   True
3   False
4   True
  ====  ====
  '''

If data is a constant instead of an iterable object, it's value
will be written into each row:

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table(['x'], 'f', x=range(5))
  tab.AddCol('num', 'i', 1)
  print tab

  '''
  will produce the table

  '''

As a special case, if there are no previous rows, and data is not 
None, rows are added for every item in data.

Definition at line 699 of file table.py.

def AddRow (   self,
  data,
  overwrite = None 
)
Add a row to the table.

*data* may either be a dictionary or a list-like object:

 - If *data* is a dictionary, the keys in the dictionary must match the
   column names. Columns not found in the dict will be initialized to None.
   If the dict contains list-like objects, multiple rows will be added, if
   the number of items in all list-like objects is the same, otherwise a
   :class:`ValueError` is raised.

 - If *data* is a list-like object, the row is initialized from the values
   in *data*. The number of items in *data* must match the number of
   columns in the table. A :class:`ValuerError` is raised otherwise. The
   values are added in the order specified in the list, thus, the order of
   the data must match the columns.
  
If *overwrite* is not None and set to an existing column name, the specified 
column in the table is searched for the first occurrence of a value matching
the value of the column with the same name in the dictionary. If a matching
value is found, the row is overwritten with the dictionary. If no matching
row is found, a new row is appended to the table.

:param data: data to add
:type data: :class:`dict` or *list-like* object

:param overwrite: column name to overwrite existing row if value in
              column *overwrite* matches
:type overwrite: :class:`str`

:raises: :class:`ValueError` if *list-like* object is used and number of
     items does *not* match number of columns in table.

:raises: :class:`ValueError` if *dict* is used and multiple rows are added
     but the number of data items is different for different columns.

**Example:** add multiple data rows to a subset of columns using a dictionary

.. code-block:: python

  # create table with three float columns
  tab = Table(['x','y','z'], 'fff')

  # add rows from dict
  data = {'x': [1.2, 1.6], 'z': [1.6, 5.3]}
  tab.AddRow(data)
  print tab

  '''

  '''

  # overwrite the row with x=1.2 and add row with x=1.9

def ComputeEnrichment (   self,
  score_col,
  class_col,
  score_dir = '-',
  class_dir = '-',
  class_cutoff = 2.0 
)
Computes the enrichment of column *score_col* classified according to
*class_col*.

For this it is necessary, that the datapoints are classified into positive
and negative points. This can be done in two ways:

 - by using one 'bool' type column (*class_col*) which contains *True* for
   positives and *False* for negatives
   
 - by specifying a classification column (*class_col*), a cutoff value
   (*class_cutoff*) and the classification columns direction (*class_dir*).
   This will generate the classification on the fly

   * if ``class_dir=='-'``: values in the classification column that are less than or equal to class_cutoff will be counted as positives
   * if ``class_dir=='+'``: values in the classification column that are larger than or equal to class_cutoff will be counted as positives

During the calculation, the table will be sorted according to *score_dir*,
where a '-' values means smallest values first and therefore, the smaller
the value, the better.

:warning: If either the value of *class_col* or *score_col* is *None*, the
      data in this row is ignored.

def ComputeEnrichmentAUC (   self,
  score_col,
  class_col,
  score_dir = '-',
  class_dir = '-',
  class_cutoff = 2.0 
)
Computes the area under the curve of the enrichment using the trapezoidal
rule.

For more information about parameters of the enrichment, see
:meth:`ComputeEnrichment`.

:warning: The function depends on *numpy*

Definition at line 2592 of file table.py.

def ComputeLogROCAUC (   self,
  score_col,
  class_col,
  score_dir = '-',
  class_dir = '-',
  class_cutoff = 2.0 
)
Computes the area under the curve of the log receiver operating 
characteristics (logROC) where the x-axis is semilogarithmic
using the trapezoidal rule.

The logROC is computed with a lambda of 0.001 according to 
Rapid Context-Dependent Ligand Desolvation in Molecular Docking
Mysinger M. and Shoichet B., Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling
2010 50 (9), 1561-1573

def ComputeMCC (   self,
  score_col,
  class_col,
  score_dir = '-',
  class_dir = '-',
  score_cutoff = 2.0,
  class_cutoff = 2.0 
)
Compute Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) for one column (*score_col*)
with the points classified into true positives, false positives, true
negatives and false negatives according to a specified classification
column (*class_col*).

The datapoints in *score_col* and *class_col* are classified into
positive and negative points. This can be done in two ways:

 - by using 'bool' columns which contains True for positives and False
   for negatives
   
 - by using 'float' or 'int' columns and specifying a cutoff value and the
   columns direction. This will generate the classification on the fly
   
   * if ``class_dir``/``score_dir=='-'``: values in the classification column that are less than or equal to *class_cutoff*/*score_cutoff* will be counted as positives
   * if ``class_dir``/``score_dir=='+'``: values in the classification column that are larger than or equal to *class_cutoff*/*score_cutoff* will be counted as positives
                            
The two possibilities can be used together, i.e. 'bool' type for one column
and 'float'/'int' type and cutoff/direction for the other column.

def ComputeROC (   self,
  score_col,
  class_col,
  score_dir = '-',
  class_dir = '-',
  class_cutoff = 2.0 
)
Computes the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) of column *score_col*
classified according to *class_col*.

For this it is necessary, that the datapoints are classified into positive
and negative points. This can be done in two ways:

 - by using one 'bool' column (*class_col*) which contains True for positives
   and False for negatives
 - by using a non-bool column (*class_col*), a cutoff value (*class_cutoff*)
   and the classification columns direction (*class_dir*). This will generate
   the classification on the fly

   - if ``class_dir=='-'``: values in the classification column that are less than or equal to *class_cutoff* will be counted as positives
   - if ``class_dir=='+'``: values in the classification column that are larger than or equal to *class_cutoff* will be counted as positives

During the calculation, the table will be sorted according to *score_dir*,
where a '-' values means smallest values first and therefore, the smaller
the value, the better.

If *class_col* does not contain any positives (i.e. value is True (if column
is of type bool) or evaluated to True (if column is of type int or float
(depending on *class_dir* and *class_cutoff*))) the ROC is not defined and
the function will return *None*.

:warning: If either the value of *class_col* or *score_col* is *None*, the
      data in this row is ignored.

def Correl (   self,
  col1,
  col2 
)
Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between *col1* and *col2*, only
taking rows into account where both of the values are not equal to *None*.
If there are not enough data points to calculate a correlation coefficient,
*None* is returned.

:param col1: column name for first column

:type ignore_nan: :class:`bool`

Definition at line 2071 of file table.py.

def Extend (   self,
  tab,
  overwrite = None 
)
Append each row of *tab* to the current table. The data is appended based
on the column names, thus the order of the table columns is *not* relevant,
only the header names.

If there is a column in *tab* that is not present in the current table,
it is added to the current table and filled with *None* for all the rows
present in the current table.

If the type of any column in *tab* is not the same as in the current table
a *TypeError* is raised.

If *overwrite* is not None and set to an existing column name, the specified 
column in the table is searched for the first occurrence of a value matching
the value of the column with the same name in the dictionary. If a matching
value is found, the row is overwritten with the dictionary. If no matching
row is found, a new row is appended to the table.

Definition at line 3004 of file table.py.

def Filter (   self,
  args,
  kwargs 
)
Returns a filtered table only containing rows matching all the predicates 
in kwargs and args For example,

.. code-block:: python

  tab.Filter(town='Basel')

will return all the rows where the value of the column "town" is equal to 
"Basel". Several predicates may be combined, i.e.

.. code-block:: python

  tab.Filter(town='Basel', male=True)
  
will return the rows with "town" equal to "Basel" and "male" equal to true.
args are unary callables returning true if the row should be included in the
result and false if not.

def GetNumpyMatrix (   self,
  args 
)
Returns a numpy matrix containing the selected columns from the table as 
columns in the matrix.

Only columns of type *int* or *float* are supported. *NA* values in the
table will be converted to *None* values.

:param \*args: column names to include in numpy matrix

:warning: The function depends on *numpy*

def GetOptimalPrefactors (   self,
  ref_col,
  args,
  kwargs 
)
This returns the optimal prefactor values (i.e. a, b, c, ...) for the
following equation

.. math::
  :label: op1
  
  a*u + b*v + c*w + ... = z

where u, v, w and z are vectors. In matrix notation

.. math::
  :label: op2
  
  A*p = z

where A contains the data from the table (u,v,w,...), p are the prefactors 
to optimize (a,b,c,...) and z is the vector containing the result of
equation :eq:`op1`.

The parameter ref_col equals to z in both equations, and \*args are columns
u, v and w (or A in :eq:`op2`). All columns must be specified by their names.

**Example:**

.. code-block:: python

  tab.GetOptimalPrefactors('colC', 'colA', 'colB')

The function returns a list of containing the prefactors a, b, c, ... in 
the correct order (i.e. same as columns were specified in \*args).

Weighting:
If the kwarg weights="columX" is specified, the equations are weighted by
the values in that column. Each row is multiplied by the weight in that row,
which leads to :eq:`op3`:

.. math::
  :label: op3
  
  weight*a*u + weight*b*v + weight*c*w + ... = weight*z

Weights must be float or int and can have any value. A value of 0 ignores
this equation, a value of 1 means the same as no weight. If all weights are
the same for each row, the same result will be obtained as with no weights.

**Example:**

.. code-block:: python

  tab.GetOptimalPrefactors('colC', 'colA', 'colB', weights='colD')

def GetUnique (   self,
  col,
  ignore_nan = True 
)
Extract a list of all unique values from one column.

:param col: column name
:type col: :class:`str`

:param ignore_nan: ignore all *None* values
:type ignore_nan: :class:`bool`

Definition at line 1046 of file table.py.

def HasCol (   self,
  col 
)
Checks if the column with a given name is present in the table.

Definition at line 401 of file table.py.

def IsEmpty (   self,
  col_name = None,
  ignore_nan = True 
)
Checks if a table is empty.

If no column name is specified, the whole table is checked for being empty,
whereas if a column name is specified, only this column is checked.

By default, all NAN (or None) values are ignored, and thus, a table
containing only NAN values is considered as empty. By specifying the 
option ignore_nan=False, NAN values are counted as 'normal' values.

Definition at line 2967 of file table.py.

def Load (   stream_or_filename,
  format = 'auto',
  sep = ' 
)
Load table from stream or file with given name.

By default, the file format is set to *auto*, which tries to guess the file
format from the file extension. The following file extensions are
recognized:

============    ======================
extension       recognized format
============    ======================
.csv            comma separated values
.pickle         pickled byte stream
<all others>    ost-specific format
============    ======================

Thus, *format* must be specified for reading file with different filename
extensions.

The following file formats are understood:

- ost

  This is an ost-specific, but still human readable file format. The file
  (stream) must start with header line of the form

col_name1[type1] <col_name2[type2]>...

  The types given in brackets must be one of the data types the
  :class:`Table` class understands. Each following line in the file then must
  contains exactly the same number of data items as listed in the header. The
  data items are automatically converted to the column format. Lines starting
  with a '#' and empty lines are ignored.

- pickle

  Deserializes the table from a pickled byte stream.

- csv

  Reads the table from comma separated values stream. Since there is no
  explicit type information in the csv file, the column types are guessed,
  using the following simple rules:

  * if all values are either NA/NULL/NONE the type is set to string.
  * if all non-null values are convertible to float/int the type is set to
float/int.
  * if all non-null values are true/false/yes/no, the value is set to bool.
  * for all other cases, the column type is set to string.

def Select (   self,
  query 
)
Returns a new table object containing all rows matching a logical query expression.

*query* is a string containing the logical expression, that will be evaluated
for every row. 

Operands have to be the name of a column or an expression that can be parsed to 
float, int, bool or string.
Valid operators are: and, or, !=, !, <=, >=, ==, =, <, >, +, -, *, / 

.. code-block:: python

  subtab = tab.Select('col_a>0.5 and (col_b=5 or col_c=5)')

The selection query should be self explaining. Allowed parenthesis are: (), [], {}, 
whereas parenthesis mismatches get recognized. Expressions like '3<=col_a>=col_b'
throw an error, due to problems in figuring out the evaluation order.

There are two special expressions:

.. code-block:: python

  #selects rows, where 1.0<=col_a<=1.5
  subtab = tab.Select('col_a=1.0:1.5')

  #selects rows, where col_a=1 or col_a=2 or col_a=3
  subtab = tab.Select('col_a=1,2,3')

Only consistent types can be compared. If col_a is of type string and col_b is of type int, 
following expression would throw an error: 'col_a<col_b'

Convert the table into a string representation.

The output format can be modified for int and float type columns by
specifying a formatting string for the parameters *float_format* and
*int_format*.

The option *rows* specify the range of rows to be printed. The parameter
must be a type that supports indexing (e.g. a :class:`list`) containing the 
start and end row *index*, e.g. [start_row_idx, end_row_idx].

:param float_format: formatting string for float columns

Allows to conveniently iterate over a selection of columns, e.g.

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table.Load('...')
  for col1, col2 in tab.Zip('col1', 'col2'):
print col1, col2

is a shortcut for

.. code-block:: python

  tab = Table.Load('...')
  for col1, col2 in zip(tab['col1'], tab['col2']):
print col1, col2
