disco-toolbox 0.0.3rc1

A toolbox for disco simulation models.

🧰 disco-toolbox

A toolbox for disco simulation models.

disco-toolbox contains reusable utilities intended to be embedded in disco models and supporting code. The toolbox is deliberately small and focused: each subpackage should solve one clear problem well, with an emphasis on correctness, testability, and performance.

---

🧭 Overview

• Python ≥ 3.11
• Key dependencies: python-graphblas, numpy, scipy (orderbook uses dense numpy arrays; GraphBLAS is used elsewhere in the toolbox)
• Includes optional C++/pybind11 extensions for hot paths (built with scikit-build-core).

---

📦 Installation

pip install disco-toolbox

---

📚 Subpackages

toolbox.orderbook

A compact order book for simulation loops (fast C++/pybind11 core):

• Store outstanding orders as dense numpy.ndarray (float64) vectors
• Keys are stored as opaque bytes (so you can pack identifiers however you like)
• Allocate available capacity/stock against orders with a greedy strategy
• Remove fully fulfilled orders during allocation
• Supports pickling / unpickling for checkpointing

Quick example

import numpy as np
from toolbox.orderbook import Orderbook

ob = Orderbook()
ob.append(b"abc", np.array([1, 2, 3], dtype=np.double))
ob.append(b"def", np.array([4, 5, 6], dtype=np.double))

stock = np.array([5, 5, 5], dtype=np.double)
allocations = ob.allocate_greedy(stock)

for key, alloc in allocations:
    print(key, alloc)

print("remaining:", stock)

toolbox.distributions

Small, simulation-oriented distribution utilities on top of SciPy:

• Generic, registry-backed moment fitting via fit_moments.fit(...) returning standard SciPy frozen distributions
• Custom distributions:
  • rectnorm: rectified normal distribution (X = max(0, Z) where Z ~ Normal(mu, sigma))
  • conditional: zero-inflated wrapper around a base SciPy distribution

Quick example

import numpy as np
from numpy.random import default_rng
from scipy import stats
from toolbox.distributions import fit_moments
from toolbox.distributions.conditional import conditional

rng = default_rng(42)

data = stats.gamma(a=3.0, scale=2.0).rvs(size=50_000, random_state=rng)

rv = fit_moments.fit("gamma", data, ddof=1)
print(rv.mean(), rv.std())

# Zero-inflated normal: P(X=0)=1-p, else Normal(inner_loc, inner_scale)
norm_cond = conditional(stats.norm, name="norm_cond")
x = norm_cond(0.3, 0.0, 1.0).rvs(size=10_000, random_state=rng)
print("zero fraction:", np.mean(x == 0.0))

🧰 Development Setup

Clone and install in editable mode:

git clone https://github.com/michielmj/disco-toolbox.git
cd disco-toolbox
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Run tests:

pytest -q

Type checking:

mypy src

---

🏗️ Building the extension locally

The orderbook implementation includes a C++ extension module (toolbox.orderbook._core) built with pybind11.

Typical local build (editable install):

pip install -e ".[dev]"

If you are modifying C++ sources and want a clean rebuild, remove the build directory and reinstall:

rm -rf build
pip install -e .
