The mapdata.py data explorer now has two new ways of summarizing missing data. It can also now create a Zipf's Law plot for any categorical variable. Install, update, or download it from PyPI: pypi.org/project/mapdata/

A screenshot of mapdata's new dialog for summarizing missing data by rows.  On the left is a list of variables, with some selected (highlighted).  On the right is an output table with two columns, the first of which contains the number of missing values found in a row and the second of which contains the number of rows with that number of missing values.A screenshot of mapdata's new dialog for summarizing the number of missing values by variable.  On the left is a list of variables, with some selected (highlighted).  Below that a grouping variable, the field study, is identified.  On the right is a table with one row for each field study and one column for each variable.  The cells of the table contain the number of missing values for that variable in that study.An example plot from mapdata's new Zipf's Law plotting tool, showing the distribution of taxonomic family names for forbs in North America.  The X axis is the abundance rank of each family name, and the Y axis is the frequency of occurrence of that family name.  Both axes are log-transformed.  The distribution is shown by an irregular blue line on the plot, decreasing from top left to bottom right--that is, it very roughly follows Zipf's Law.

I made some postcards with my plotter. The postcard on the image here is consisting only of sinus functions. Math is so beautiful :blobfoxheart:

Is Single or Multiple Viewpoints Best for Your Story?

Deciding how many characters should tell your story is an important decision. Whether you’re writing young adult fiction, fantasy, romance, or any genre, this choice will determine the overall tone of the story and how deeply readers connect with the characters. So do you just need one perspective, or should multiple narrators be involved? Here...

I'm looking for suggestions for data visualisation.

Nothing sophisticated but I've not found anything uncomplicated yet.

I need to plot a few time series which in itself is not very complex.

However, I would like to annotate the graph to indicate various events, e.g. with vertical bars from points to the x-axis, and the duration is going to be fairly long. Also, I'd like to both get an overview and look at details.

I've used gnuplot for a bunch of things but never got good results for cases like this, and I don't know how to do annotations to plot events.

So.. any ideas?

Goal–Obstacle–Outcome cards capture the core of the moment so you don’t write scenes that drift or stall.

This works for any genre, whether you outline or discovery write. It works whether you’re drafting or revising.

A quotation from Euripides

CREON: A woman of hot temper — and a man the same —
Is a less dangerous enemy than one quiet and clever.
 
[ΚΡΈΩΝ: Γυνὴ γὰρ ὀξύθυμος, ὡς δ᾽ αὔτως ἀνήρ,
ῥᾴων φυλάσσειν ἢ σιωπηλὸς σοφή.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 319ff (431 BC) [tr. Vellacott (1963)]

I have begun the next story. It isn’t nearly as disturbing as the last, but I realized there is actually a fair bit of grimness to it. When I first worked on it like 20 years ago, I resisted including some of the darker elements of professional sports. Now I find myself embracing them as important to the theme and character. Interesting how time changes stuff. And how most of the key story beats I knew still work. #plotting #writing
