phenomax / praktipy

A little python package to help with the AP in physics at the TU-Dortmund.

prakitpy

This provides a little script to handle tables in textfiles (similar, but more powerful, to numpy.genfromtxt()).

Using Matplotlib

Praktipy will try to set up the matplotlib backend to enable printing of beautiful (german number format and nice math-font) plots. If you want to set up matplotlib yourself, just do that before you import anything from praktipy.

Documentation

The code currently is not very well documented (Allthough tablehandler.py itself provides nice Docstrings). You will find some examples in ./examples/, which you can use for orientation.

Dependencies

• python
• numpy
• uncertainties
• pint

Please install numpy, uncertainties with the following commands (using pip).

$ pip install numpy
$ pip install uncertainties
$ pip install pint

Installation

For now: execute install.bash. Maybe I will add a nicer version later (which is in tone to the rest of python).

$ ./install.bash

Thanks

Thanks a lot to PEP et al. for their Toolbox-Workshop and materials they provide. I basicly stole their matplotlib-tex-header!
