What is the issue?

This code must have worked at one time but is now broken. Have no previous experience with it running correctly.

Two issues related to:

  • http://databookuw.com ... DATA DRIVEN SCIENCE & ENGINEERING ... CODE.zip + DATA.zip (PYTHON CODE)

Notebook containing the broken code:

  • CH09_SEC03_ERA_OKID.ipynb

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Test on Python 3.10
  2. Run the notebook

Source changes to accommodate the failures

The following changes to the source were needed:
Issue 1. Slice assignment
Change
yFull[:,:,qi],t = impulse(sysFull,T=tspan,input=qi)
to
yFull[:,:,qi:qi+1],t = impulse(sysFull,T=tspan,input=qi)

Change
y1[:,:,qi],t1 = impulse(sysFull,np.arange(200),input=qi)
y2[:,:,qi],t2 = impulse(sysERA,np.arange(100),input=qi)
y3[:,:,qi],t3 = impulse(sysERAOKID,np.arange(100),input=qi)
to
y1[:,:,qi:qi+1],t1 = impulse(sysFull,np.arange(200),input=qi)
y2[:,:,qi:qi+1],t2 = impulse(sysERA,np.arange(100),input=qi)
y3[:,:,qi:qi+1],t3 = impulse(sysERAOKID,np.arange(100),input=qi)

Issue 2. Invalid np array shape
Change
yRandom = lsim(sysFull,uRandom,range(200))[0].T # Output
to
yRandom = lsim(sysFull,uRandom.T,range(200))[0].T # Output

Summary

Potential root causes could be due to changes in this library or in changes to Python or both.

    Thanks for posting the fixes, I was struggling to get the OKID example working. Confirmed to still be valid with Python 3.13.3 and Control 0.10.2
