Question

Essentially I am creating various arrays to elicit tactile stimulation (string of 0s with 1s when stimulation is delivered) for a random condition where the interval between the stimulation is drawn from a uniform distribution. I am using the following code to create the arrays (which all works fine):

def rand_stim_seconds(array):
    lst = list(range(0,10))
    random_ints = []
    for i in lst: # Creating list containing intervals drawn from distribution.
        rand_int = np.random.uniform(0.1, 0.6, 1)
        random_ints.append(rand_int)

    values = [] # Convert list from seconds into values of array.  
    for j in random_ints:
        d = j * 22050 # Mutiply by sampling frequency. 
        e = float(d)
        f = int(np.round(e))
        values.append(f)

    add_lst = [0] # Initialise with a value.
    for k in values: # Adding a '1' at specific intervals of the array.
        add = add_lst[-1] + k
        if add > 44100:
            break
        add_lst.append(add)
    print(add_lst)
    for l in add_lst[1:]:
        array[l] = 1

    return array

I am now trying to create 10 arrays using this function which will then output 10 different arrays (called "stim1" "stim2" etc) which will each have a different pattern of stimulation where each interval is randomly drawn. The following code is what I would like to convert into a loop:

rand1 = np.zeros((44100, 1)) 
rand2 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand3 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand4 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand5 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand6 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand7 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand8 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand9 = np.zeros((44100, 1))
rand10 = np.zeros((44100, 1))

stim1 = rand_stim_seconds(rand1)
stim2 = rand_stim_seconds(rand2)
stim3 = rand_stim_seconds(rand3)
stim4 = rand_stim_seconds(rand4)
stim5 = rand_stim_seconds(rand5)
stim6 = rand_stim_seconds(rand6)
stim7 = rand_stim_seconds(rand7)
stim8 = rand_stim_seconds(rand8)
stim9 = rand_stim_seconds(rand9)
stim10 = rand_stim_seconds(rand10)

I need to create new arrays of 0 for each array I wish to create otherwise it overwrites. Does anyone know how to turn the above into a neat loop as I am very aware of how amateur it is (I am new to Python)! Thank you!

Answer 1

If you need references to all rand objects:

rand_list = [np.zeros((44100, 1)) for _ in range(10)]
stim_list = [rand_stim_seconds(r) for r in rand_list]

If you only need stim references:

stim_list = [rand_stim_seconds(np.zeros((44100, 1))) for _ in range(10)]

What was previously stim1 is now stim[0] and so on. I am using list comprehension as it is the shortest to write.

Answer 2

The following code should do the trick:

stim = [] # Storing stim values in a list
n = 10
for i in range(n):
    rand = np.zeroes((44100,1))
    stim.append(rand_stim_seconds(rand))

you can them access any on your stimulation arrays by their index as stim[0] for the first element
