The flat rate box with priority mail comes with free 100. $ insurance . If it gets lost by the government I can split the $ with my intended victim .who ever that may be .lol

[OLDE CUTLER]

Last day to sign up. Over the next few days the USPS will notice a rash of reports of their employees overcome by "fumes."

[Kolvir]

Entries are now closed. Results, messages, etc... to be posted and sent as soon as I have time.

[Kolvir]

This POS form is a PITA

The AI generated python code that made the charts from the responses that are in a spreadsheet.
I was sure there would be a large amount of interest here for it.

Code: Select all

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import pyexcel_ods

# Load data from the .ods file
data = pyexcel_ods.get_data("response3.ods")
# Extracting only the first sheet's data
data = data[list(data.keys())[0]]

# Remove empty rows
data = [row for row in data if any(row)]
cmap = plt.cm.tab10

# Iterate over each column (excluding the first one which contains headers)
for i, column_data in enumerate(zip(*data[1:])):
    header = data[0][i]
    
    # Skip empty columns
    if not any(column_data):
        continue
    
    # Count occurrences of each unique value in the column
    unique_values = [str(value) for value in set(column_data) if value]
    counts = [column_data.count(value) for value in unique_values]
    num_unique_values = len(unique_values)
    colors = [cmap(i % 10) for i in range(num_unique_values)]  # Modulus operation to ensure color cycling
    
    
    # Create a new figure and axis for each chart
    fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(15, 10))
    
    # Create the chart
    bars = ax.bar(range(len(unique_values)), counts, color=colors)
    ax.set_ylabel('Count')
    ax.set_title(f'Summary of {header}')
    
    # Remove x-axis labels
    ax.set_xticks([])
    
    # Create legend with colors
    legend_handles = [plt.Rectangle((0,0),1,1, color=colors[i], label=unique_values[i]) for i in range(len(unique_values))]
    ax.legend(handles=legend_handles, loc='upper center', bbox_to_anchor=(0.5, -0.2), ncol=1, frameon=False)


    plt.tight_layout()  # Adjust layout to prevent overlapping
    plt.show()

and so it begins...

[Kolvir]

I messed up and have two people sending to each other, so I'm going to have to change it around a bit. Will post soon. PM haven't gone out yet so not a big deal.

[Kolvir]

Changes:

rockingkj -> galvanic1882
royal0014 -> pearlgearl

The big list has been updated with these changes.

[GringoBombero]

Rockingkj standby
pearlgearl, I'll take all those yellow Queens please and thank you

[Kolvir]

Running behind, very busy with work. If I get it done tonight it will be late. Sorry.

Take your time and thank you.

[Kolvir]

Everyone should have a PM with a address to send to. If you didn't get one or I screwed up and sent you your own name or something else equally dense, PM me right away. I'm going to bed now, been staring at a screen for 14 hours.

[Corn Creek Cutlery]

Cody ... your package is labeled and will be in the care of USPS this morning Saturday the 23rd.
Some good, bad, and ugly leftovers from last year in the lot!
Many thanks Kolvir for all the time and effort to make this happen!

[KLJ77]

Knife Guy...

You should be receiving a dirty, ugly, smelly box of crude very soon. Going out in the mail today.

[JamieinWV]

Well Boji you have a 8 pounder headed your way... if you want tracking number..PM me... but I think you will know when its close by ...by the smell in the air.

[Grump01]

Didn't see this in time for this year. Put me down for a heads up next time.
