Change log and devel blog

2019-06-06 History cleanup

A new superproject structure is being set up:

in the root folder:

  • handybeam repository contains core share-able core only
  • handybeam_extension contains optional extensions to the core share-able code, to work on specific problems
  • handybeam_username contains non-share-able code bits, figures and garbage
  • tmp contains temporary files

2019-05-24 Documentation rush

  • Jurek picks up development of the HandyBeam core
  • This version has multiple contributions from Salvador Catsis
  • Updating the Readme to prepare for open-source release

2019-01-21 Documentation rush

  • Lots of updates to documentation
    • the docstrings now have 100% coverage
  • Trims to source code and minor refactorings
  • Tests have not ran for a while now, I expect many things to be broken
  • Starting to split the public code from add-on-development-only code. New domain: UH

2019-01-07 Development restart

  • Lots of updates to documentation
    • Moving obsolete parts of the documentation to the [obsolete] folder
  • Small trims of the source code as I work through documenting it
  • New concept: higher performance, and more flexible TxArray objects
    • there will be many TxArray types, one for each special case
    • TxArray instance holds all the data about it's transducers, in a uniform float-typed memory block, no need for list of TxElement objects. This should make the operations on the elements significantly faster.
    • The TxElement becomes a 'viewer' onto the flat memory block of the TxArray
    • I can begin introducing this by simply making another TxArray Class - with new features
    • The propagators need a better architecture . . . .
  • New concept: reference propagators
    • should make it easier to write tests
    • should make it easier to demonstrate equivalence and correctness
    • should be good for education

2018-10-04

  • sampling point list sampler and core - debugging
  • Studying User Stories with Simon

2018-10-03

  • bugfix in the propagator.py
  • sampling point list sampler and core - first implementation

2018-10-02

Bump version number to 1.0.5

  • Learning about software engineering with Simon
    • The production process
    • The tests & coverage
    • Capturing the requirements - user stories
    • the V-model
  • Refactoring field* and parent* to sampler*
  • adding named parameters instead of positional parameters everywhere possible
  • watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSGv2VnC0go - a way towards more beautiful python
    • lot's of advice there, I will want to use it, here are the more relevant ones: 04:47 -- Looping over a collection 06:51 -- Looping over a collection of indicies 07:36 -- Looping over two collections 21:10 -- Looping over dictionary keys and values 31:10 -- Clarify function calls with keyword arguments 32:17 -- Clarify multiple return values with named tuples 33:13 -- Unpacking sequences 34:01 -- Updating multiple state variables 36:15 -- Simultaneous state updates 38:24 -- Concatenating strings 39:57 -- Using decorators to factor-out administrative logic 41:19 -- Factor-out temporary contexts for decimal 42:25 -- How to use locks 46:04 -- Concise expressive one-liners

2018-10-01

  • Created abstract_sampler_ortho and separated from abstract_sampler
  • began renaming field* to sampler*:
    • handybeam.xy_plane.XYPlane is now handybeam.sampler_plane_xy.PlaneXY
    • handybeam.yz_plane.YZPlane is now handybeam.sampler_plane_yz.PlaneYZ
    • handybeam.world.add_plane is now handybeam.world.add_sampler
    • et cetera

2018-09-30

Added a documentation for the kernel cxyz.cl

Attempt to convert the documentation from markdown to ReStructuredText

2018-09-24

Improved bugcatcher version reporting. It will now report latest tag as version, and git repo commit SHA as the metadata.

HN-97 : the default phase directivity slope updated to zero to reflect the latest findings about how the phase behaves (Slack discussion from 2018-09-21)

HN-100 : example how to create a volume of data for display in Voreen

2018-09-19 branch: doc_generated, author: Jurek

creating the "moved subaperture" and "rotated subapertures" demo in demo_rectilinear_hexa_sunflower_arrays.ipynb

Added a new handy method : handybeam.visualize.visualize_xy_and_array() - to serve the needs of the demo above

2018-09-18 HandyBeam R1.0.0 release event

The first release.
