What I’ve learned from my Open Source project
Here are a few things that I’ve learned while working on my pedigree analysis software, PyPedal. If you’re a programmer, or spend much time reading about programming and the Open Source movement, you’ll find most of this to be quite … Continue reading
[PyPedal] Beta 11 fixes some reordering and ID hashing problems
This release of PyPedal fixes some small problems in pyp_utils/reorder(), cleans up some ID-handling issues in pyp_newclasses/NewAnimal::__init__(), and replaces the hashing algorithm used in pyp_newclasses/NewAnimal::string_to_int(). The previous hashing algorithm was colliding on similar keys and the side effects were showing … Continue reading

[PyPedal] NumPy, new methods, pyp_metrics
This moring I thought that I woud spend an hour or so tidying up a few corners in PyPedal and making a small extension to pyp_metrics/mating_coi() to add a feature of interest to a potential user. By the time the … Continue reading
Visitors from Mongolia
This morning we had visitors from Mongolia who are participants in some sort of program with the University of Maryland – Baltimore County. It’s the first time I’ve worked through a translator, which was an interesting experience. They were polite … Continue reading
Pedigree simulation
It’s time that I wrote about something less controversial. So, PyPedal. It’s been a couple of months since I did any work on on that package, and I’m pleased to announce that I’ve added-in a routine for simulating pedigrees that … Continue reading
