I would like to create a vector in which each element is the i+6th element of another vector. For example, in a vector of length 120 I want to create another vector of length 20 in which each element is value i, i+6, i+12, i+18... of the initial vector, i.e. I want to extract every 6th element of the original.
a <- 1:120 b <- a[seq(1, length(a), 6)]

When you extract a single row from a data frame you get a one-row data frame. Convert it to a numeric vector: as.numeric(df[1,]) As @Roland suggests, unlist(df[1,]) will convert the one-row data frame to a numeric vector without dropping the names. Therefore unname(unlist(df[1,])) is another, slightly more explic...

I can not find within the documentation of Vec<T> how to retrieve a slice from a specified range. Is there something like this in the standard library: let a = vec![1, 2, 3, 4]; let suba = a.subvector(0, 2); // Contains [1, 2];
The documentation for Vec covers this in the section titled "slicing". You can create a slice of a Vec or array by indexing it with a Range (or RangeInclusive, RangeFrom, RangeTo, RangeToInclusive, or RangeFull), for example: fn main() { let a = vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; // With a start and an end println!("{:?...

My question is simple: are std::vector elements guaranteed to be contiguous? In other words, can I use the pointer to the first element of a std::vector as a C-array?

In C++, things are passed by value unless you specify otherwise using the &-operator (note that this operator is also used as the 'address-of' operator, but in a different context).

vector<int> v; v.push_back(1); v.push_back(v[0]); If the second push_back causes a reallocation, the reference to the first integer in the vector will no longer be valid. So this isn't safe? vector<int> v; v.push_back(1); v.reserve(v.size() + 1); v.push_back(v[0]); This makes it safe?
It looks like http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-closed.html#526 addressed this problem (or something very similar to it) as a potential defect in the standard: 1) Parameters taken by const reference can be changed during execution of the function Examples: Given std::vector v: v.insert(v.begin(), v[2])...

I have two vectors u and v. Is there a way of finding a quaternion representing the rotation from u to v?
Quaternion q; vector a = crossproduct(v1, v2); q.xyz = a; q.w = sqrt((v1.Length ^ 2) * (v2.Length ^ 2)) + dotproduct(v1, v2); Don't forget to normalize q. Richard is right about there not being a unique rotation, but the above should give the "shortest arc," which is probably what you need.

I'm trying to test whether all elements of a vector are equal to one another. The solutions I have come up with seem somewhat roundabout, both involving checking length(). x <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1) # FALSE y <- rep(2, times = 7) # TRUE With unique(): length(unique(x)) == 1 length(unique(y)) == 1 With rle(): ...
Why not simply using the variance: var(x) == 0 If all the elements of x are equal, you will get a variance of 0. This works only for double and integers though. Edit based on the comments below: A more generic option would be to check for the length of unique elements in the vector which must be 1 in this case. This h...

No, you can't. Range-based for is for when you need to access each element of a container once. You should use the normal for loop or one of its cousins if you need to modify the container as you go along, access an element more than once, or otherwise iterate in a non-linear fashion through the container.

What is the difference between std::array and std::vector? When do you use one over other? I have always used and considered std:vector as an C++ way of using C arrays, so what is the difference?
std::array is just a class version of the classic C array. That means its size is fixed at compile time and it will be allocated as a single chunk (e.g. taking space on the stack). The advantage it has is slightly better performance because there is no indirection between the object and the arrayed data. std::vector ...

The standard doesn't specify what the initial capacity of a container should be, so you're relying on the implementation. A common implementation will start the capacity at zero, but there's no guarantee.

If this is something you end up doing frequently, and with different operations, you should probably create a class to handle cases like this, or better use some library like Numpy. Otherwise, look for list comprehensions used with the zip builtin function: [a_i - b_i for a_i, b_i in zip(a, b)]

I am trying to do a foreach on a vector of attacks, each attack has a unique ID say, 1-3. The class method takes the keyboard input of 1-3.

For next examples assumed that you use C++11. Example with ranged-based for loops: for (auto &attack : m_attack) // access by reference to avoid copying { if (attack.m_num == input) { attack.makeDamage(); } } You should use const auto &attack depending on the behavior of makeDamage(). You can us...

Is there a way to extend a vector by making it repeat itself? >v = [1 2]; >v10 = v x 5; %x represents some function. Something like "1 2" x 5 in perl Then v10 would be: >v10 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 This should work for the general case, not just for [1 2]
The function you're looking for is repmat(). v10 = repmat(v, 1, 5)

Since they are both contiguous memory containers; feature wise, deque has almost everything vector has but more, since it is more efficient to insert in the front. Why whould anyone prefer std::vector to std::deque?
Elements in a deque are not contiguous in memory; vector elements are guaranteed to be. So if you need to interact with a plain C library that needs contiguous arrays, or if you care (a lot) about spatial locality, then you might prefer vector. In addition, since there is some extra bookkeeping, other ops are probably ...

A data.table inherits from class data.frame.

Prometheus is a metrics system rather than a logs system. There's the mtail and grok exporters to process logs, but really that's only for cases where instrumenting your code with metrics is not possible. For logs something like Elasticsearch is far more appropriate.

I am using a NewGaugeVec to report my metrics: elapsed := prometheus.NewGaugeVec(prometheus.GaugeOpts{ Name: "gogrinder_elapsed_ms", Help: "Current time elapsed of gogrinder teststep", }, []string{"teststep", "user", "iteration", "timestamp"}) prometheus.MustRegister(elapsed) All works fine but I noticed that ...
Well the topic is rather old but in case others have to deal with it. The following code works fine with current codebase v0.9.0-pre1 // [...] imports, metric initialization ... func main() { // go get rid of any additional metrics // we have to expose our metrics with a custom registry r := prometheus.NewRegis...

I want to know why prometheus is not suitable for billing system. the Prometheus overview page says If you need 100% accuracy, such as for per-request billing, Prometheus is not a good choice as the collected data will likely not be detailed and complete enough. I don't really understand 100% accuracy. Does it mean ...
Prometheus prefers reliability over 100% accuracy, so there are tradeoffs where a tiny amount of data may be lost rather than taking out the whole system. This is fine for monitoring, but rarely okay when money is involved. See also https://www.robustperception.io/monitoring-without-consensus/

I have different metrices in prometheus counter_metrics a, couneter_metrices b and I want a singlestat for the count of all the different request metrics. How am I able to fetch this? (sum(couneter_metrics{instance="a,job="b"}))+
For the singlestat panel, you can just sum the two metrics and then add them together. Here is an example with two different metrics: sum(prometheus_local_storage_memory_series) + sum(counters_logins) Recommended reading, just in case you are doing anything with rates as well: https://www.robustperception.io/rate-the...

Counters and Gauges allow for labels to be added to them. When I try to add labels to a Summary, I get an "incorrect number of labels" error. This is what I'm trying: private static final Summary latencySummary = Summary.build() .name("all_latencies") .help("all latencies.") .regist...
You need to provide the labelname in the metric: private static final Summary latencySummary = Summary.build() .name("latency_seconds") .help("All latencies.") .labelNames("api") .register();

Use Helm installed Prometheus and Grafana in a kubernetes cluster: helm install stable/prometheus helm install stable/grafana It has an alertmanage service. But I saw a blog introduced how to setup alertmanager config with yaml files: http://blog.wercker.com/how-to-setup-alerts-on-prometheus Is it possible to use t...
The alerts and rules keys in the serverFiles group of the values.yaml file are mounted in the Prometheus container in the /etc/config folder. You can put in there the configuration you want (for example take inspiration by the blog post you linked) and it will be used by Prometheus to handle the alerts. For example, a ...

I run a small flask application with gunicorn and multiple worker processes on kubernetes. I would like to collect metrics from this application with prometheus, but the metrics should only be accessible cluster internally on a separate port (as this required in our current setting). For one gunicorn worker process I ...
What you would want to do here is start up a separate process just to serve the metrics. Put the app function in https://github.com/prometheus/client_python#multiprocess-mode-gunicorn in an app of its own, and make sure that prometheus_multiproc_dir is the same for both it and the main application.

I am trying to drop all but a few whitelisted metrics in prometheus. I can persist them selectively with something like this: metric_relabel_configs: - source_labels: [__name__] regex: (?i)(metric1|metric2|metric3) action: keep However I want to drop all of the other, non-matching metrics. Is there any str...
The keep action drops everything that doesn't match, so that single action is enough to do what you want.

I am using the following query to calculate the cost of nodes in our GKE cluster (new lines added for readability) sum( kube_node_status_capacity_cpu_cores * on(node) group_left(label_cloud_google_com_gke_nodepool) kube_node_labels{ label_cloud_google_com_gke_preemptible = "true" } ) * 5.10 + sum( k...
You can use or to insert a value if one is not present: ( sum( kube_node_status_capacity_cpu_cores * on(node) group_left(label_cloud_google_com_gke_nodepool) kube_node_labels{label_cloud_google_com_gke_preemptible = "true"} ) * 5.10 or vector(0) ) + sum( ...

Is there a way to round a decimal value in grafana? round() and ceil() functions gets an "instant-vector", not a numeric value, and for example, adding a query like ceil(1/15) will return 0.
It depends what you're using to display the data, for example a single stat or gauge you'll find the 'Decimals' option in Grafana, for graphs it's in the 'Axes' options. You don't need to do this in the query for the metric.

I have an application that I have to monitor every 5 mins. However, that application does not have a /metrics port for Prometheus to directly scrape from and I don't have any control over that application. As a workaround, I wrote a python program to manually scrape the data, and transforms those data to my own metric...
You can create the lambda and run it every 5 minutes with a cloudwatch rule. Inside the lambda, instead of calling push_to_gateway, you can just curl the pushgateway. see and example here. Make sure that the gateway is accessible from the lambda - either behind a public ELB or have them both in the same vpc.

I have implemented a Java web service using Dropwizard. Now I want it to also expose Prometheus metrics. I have followed this pretty straight-forward example. However, the endpoint at http://localhost:9090/metrics is still not exposed. Here's the relevant code: Dependencies in the pom.xml: <dependency> <gro...
Remember default dropwizard configuration has the admin app on a different port. That's where you'd find the metrics servlet.
