tupper 0.10.1

Calculates plots for Tupper's Self-Referential Formula.

Tupper's Self-Referential Formula plotter

This Python package calculates and plots Tupper's Self-Referential Formula.

I've written about the formula and this project at Tupper’s Self-Referential Formula in Python.

Requirements

• Python 3

Installation

pip3 install tupper

Console usage

python3 -m tupper

Optional arguments:

• --help -- show usage instructions.
• --k <number> -- the value of k to plot.
• --true <string> -- the string to print for truthy points.
• --false <string> -- the string to print for falsy points.
• --export <filename> -- export the (x, y) coordinates and their truthy solution to a CSV file.

If you don't specify k then k =

Code usage

Solver class

To solve ad-hoc (x, y) points, import the Solver class and call the solve(x, y) function:

from tupper import Solver
# ...
s = Solver()
b = s.solve(x, y)

x() and y() functions are provided for yielding the coordinates of a graph:

from tupper import Solver
# ...
s = Solver()
k = 960939379918958...
for y in s.y(k):
    for x in s.x():
        b = s.solve(x, y)

StringPlotter class

StringPlotter exposes two functions for rendering graphs as text.

row() yields the characters for any given row:

from tupper import StringPlotter
# ...
sp = StringPlotter(true_mark="x", false_mark=" ")
k = 960939379918958...
for c in sp.row(k):
    print(c, end="")

graph() yields the characters for the entire graph, including newlines at the end of each row:

from tupper import StringPlotter
# ...
sp = StringPlotter(true_mark="x", false_mark=" ")
k = 960939379918958...
for c in sp.graph(k):
    print(c, end="")

Test data

The test_data directory contains CSV files for testing the calculation.

Each file contains three columns:

1. The x coordinate.
2. The y coordinate.
3. The expected true/false solution.
