Walkthrough

The change adds daughter-bin mapping and dose-map rescaling. The implementation selects scaling factors by cooling time, scales daughter arrays in a copied grid, and stores a combined total array. Irradiation data and a mesh rescaling test support the new behavior.

Changes

Dose map rescaling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Daughter-bin mapping
src/f4enix/output/meshtal/fmesh.py
Fmesh validates the bin type and maps daughter identifiers to three-digit mesh array numbers.
Dose-map rescaling
src/f4enix/output/meshtal/fmesh.py
rescale_dose_map delegates to rescale_dose_map_vtk. The helper copies the grid, scales daughter arrays for the selected cooling-time column, raises KeyError for missing arrays, and stores the combined total.
Irradiation data and validation
docs/source/examples/output/jupyters/d1stime_o_30d, tests/meshtal_test.py, tests/resources/meshtal/meshtal_time_energy_bins
The example adds 30-day irradiation and correction-factor data. The test rescales mesh 44 with 200-day cooling factors and checks a daughter-array value. The test resource updates one tally value.

Pandas documentation duplicate index DataFrame.loc returns Series NumPy ndarray multiplication Series alignment

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
In pandas, the presence of duplicate indices significantly impacts both data selection with.loc and mathematical operations like multiplication [1][2]. Data Selection and.loc When using.loc to select data from a DataFrame with a unique index, pandas consistently returns a Series for a single row or a DataFrame for multiple rows [3]. However, when duplicate labels exist, the return type can vary [1][2]. If a label is not duplicated,.loc returns a scalar or Series as expected; if the label has duplicates,.loc returns a DataFrame containing all matching rows [2]. To ensure a consistent return type (i.e., always a DataFrame), you can pass the indexer as a list, such as df.loc[[label]] [3]. Multiplication and Series Alignment Pandas arithmetic operations (like * or.mul) automatically align data based on index labels, not position [4][5]. When performing multiplication between two Series that contain duplicate indices, pandas aligns values for matching labels [6]. - Unique labels: Only matching labels are multiplied; labels present in one but not the other result in NaN [6]. - Duplicate labels: If a label appears multiple times on one side but not the other, pandas exhausts all possible combinations of that label [6]. If a label is duplicated on both sides, the multiplication is performed on those specific pairs (often resulting in a cartesian-like alignment depending on how the indices match up) [6]. If you wish to bypass index-based alignment and perform entry-wise multiplication (treating the data as NumPy ndarrays), you should explicitly access the underlying values using.values or reset the index to ensure position-based matching [7]. For example, s1.values * s2.values performs multiplication based on position, ignoring index alignment entirely [7].

exact behavior numpy ndarray multiplied by pandas Series different lengths ValueError broadcasting

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
When you perform arithmetic operations (such as multiplication) between a NumPy ndarray and a pandas Series, the behavior depends significantly on whether you are using pandas-native operations (which involve index alignment) or NumPy-native operations (via.values) which rely on position-based broadcasting [1][2]. 1. Pandas-native behavior (Alignment) When you use operators like * directly between a pandas Series and a NumPy array (or DataFrame), pandas attempts to align the data based on indices [2]. If the lengths are different, pandas will produce a result indexed by the union of the two indices, filling missing positions with NaN [3]. This is not a broadcasting error, but rather an alignment operation. 2. NumPy-native behavior (Broadcasting) If you bypass pandas&#39; index alignment by using the.values attribute (e.g., series.values * array), the operation falls under NumPy&#39;s broadcasting rules [1][2]. In this context, if the shapes are incompatible—specifically if the dimensions cannot be aligned starting from the trailing (rightmost) dimension—NumPy will raise a ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together [4]. 3. Common Causes for ValueError A ValueError in this context often arises for two reasons: - Shape Mismatch: You are attempting to multiply arrays whose dimensions do not satisfy NumPy&#39;s broadcasting compatibility rules (e.g., attempting to multiply a (17, 1) array by a (20208, 17) array) [4][5]. - Implicit Dimensionality: If you pass a multi-dimensional array where a 1D array is expected, or if you have mismatching singleton dimensions, the operation will fail [5]. To resolve these errors, you can: - Use.values to convert the Series to a NumPy array for position-based multiplication if you do not want index alignment [1]. - Ensure the shapes are compatible for broadcasting by using.reshape(-1) or np.atleast_1d to force the correct dimensionality [5]. - Explicitly align the data if the indices are mismatched, either by resetting the index (e.g., df.reset_index(drop=True)) or reindexing to match the desired structure [1].

<title>Mastering Pandas Multiplication: Common Issues with .mul()</title> https://runebook.dev/en/docs/pandas/reference/api/pandas.dataframe.mul Mastering Pandas Multiplication: Common Issues with .mul() # Mastering Pandas Multiplication: Common Issues with .mul() 2025-09-09 Hey there! When working with Pandas, the `DataFrame.mul()` method is a handy tool for multiplying a DataFrame by a scalar, another Series, or another DataFrame. However, it can sometimes lead to unexpected results. Let&`#39`;s look at some common issues and how to solve them with alternative methods. A common pitfall with `mul()` is that it performs label alignment by default. This means that if you&`#39`;re multiplying two DataFrames or a DataFrame and a Series, Pandas will try to match up the row and column labels. If a label exists in one object but not the other, the corresponding result will be filled with `NaN` (Not a Number). Example of the Problem Let&`#39`;s say you have two DataFrames with slightly different column names. ```python import pandas as pd df1 = pd.DataFrame({&`#39`;A&`#39`;: [1, 2, 3], &`#39`;B&`#39`;: [4, 5, 6]}) df2 = pd.DataFrame({&`#39`;A&`#39`;: [10, 20, 30], &`#39`;C&`#39`;: [40, 50, 60]}) # Multiplying these will result in NaNs because &`#39`;B&`#39`; and &`#39`;C&`#39`; don&`#39`;t align result_mul = df1.mul(df2) print("Result with NaNs:") print(result_mul) ``` Alternative The `df.values` Solution If you want to perform element-wise multiplication without label alignment, you can use the `.values` attribute. This converts the DataFrames to NumPy arrays, which perform the operation based on position, not labels. ```python # The alternative: Convert to NumPy arrays to avoid alignment result_values = df1.values * df2.values print("\nResult using .values (avoids alignment):") print(result_values) # You can convert it back to a DataFrame if needed result_df = pd.DataFrame(result_values, columns=[&`#39`;A&`#39`;, &`#39`;B&`#39`;]) print("\nResult as DataFrame:") print(result_df) ``` Note This method will work as long as the shapes of your DataFrames are the same. If they have different shapes, you&`#39`;ll get a `ValueError`. When multiplying a DataFrame by a Series, `mul()` aligns on the index and then broadcasts the operation across the DataFrame&`#39`;s columns. This is often the desired behavior, but it can be confusing if you&`#39`;re not expecting it. Example of the Problem If you try to multiply a DataFrame by a Series where the index labels don&`#39`;t match, you&`#39`;ll again get `NaN` values. ```python import pandas as pd df = pd.DataFrame({&`#39`;A&`#39`;: [1, 2, 3], &`#39`;B&`#39`;: [4, 5, 6]}) # This series has a different index multiplier = pd.Series([10, 20], index=[1, 2]) # The multiplication will fail to align on index 0 result_series_mul = df.mul(multiplier, axis=&`#39`;index&`#39`;) print("Result with a misaligned Series:") print(result_series_mul) ``` Alternative Resetting the Index If you want to perform element-wise multiplication regardless of the index, a simple solution is to reset the index of both the DataFrame and the Series, or just use the `.values` attribute as shown before. ```python # The alternative: Reset the index of the series to align with the DataFrame df = pd.DataFrame({&`#39`;A&`#39`;: [1, 2, 3], &`#39`;B&`#39`;: [4, 5, 6]}) multiplier = pd.Series([10, 20, 30]) # A new series with the correct number of elements result_fixed = df.mul(multiplier, axis=&`#39`;index&`#39`;) print("\nResult after aligning the Series index:") print(result_fixed) ``` In this case, simply creating a new Series with the correct number of elements works perfectly. You can also use `df.reset_index(drop=True)` and `series.reset_index(drop=True)` to ensure they align. When you use `mul()` with a scalar (a single number), you don&`#39`;t have to worry about alignment, but you should be mindful of the resulting data type. The `mul()` method is great for this as it handles type promotion correctly. ```python import pandas as pd df = pd.DataFrame({&`#39`;A&`#39`;: [1, 2, 3], &`#39`;B&`#39`;: [4.5, 5.6, 6.7]}) # Multiplying by a scalar result_scalar = df.mul(10) print("\nResult of sc…[truncated] <title>Operating on Data in Pandas | Python Data Science Handbook</title> https://jakevdp.github.io/PythonDataScienceHandbook/03.03-operations-in-pandas.html One of the essential pieces of NumPy is the ability to perform quick element-wise operations, both with basic arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc.) and with more sophisticated operations (trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, etc.). Pandas inherits much of this functionality from NumPy, and the ufuncs that we introduced in Computation on NumPy Arrays: Universal Functions are key to this. ... Pandas includes a couple useful twists, however: for unary operations like negation and trigonometric functions, these ufuncs will preserve index and column labels in the output, and for binary operations such as addition and multiplication, Pandas will automatically align indices when passing the objects to the ufunc. This means that keeping the context of data and combining data from different sources–both potentially error-prone tasks with raw NumPy arrays–become essentially foolproof ones with Pandas. We will additionally see that there are well-defined operations between one-dimensional `Series` structures and two-dimensional `DataFrame` structures. ... For binary operations on two `Series` or `DataFrame` objects, Pandas will align indices in the process of performing the operation. This is very convenient when working with incomplete data, as we&`#39`;ll see in some of the examples that follow. ... Any item for which one or the other does not have an entry is marked with `NaN`, or "Not a Number," which is how Pandas marks missing data (see further discussion of missing data in Handling Missing Data). This index matching is implemented this way for any of Python&`#39`;s built-in arithmetic expressions; any missing values are filled in with NaN by default: ... If using NaN values is not the desired behavior, the fill value can be modified using appropriate object methods in place of the operators. For example, calling `A.add(B)` is equivalent to calling `A + B`, but allows optional explicit specification of the fill value for any elements in `A` or `B` that might be missing: ... Notice that indices are aligned correctly irrespective of their order in the two objects, and indices in the result are sorted. As was the case with `Series`, we can use the associated object&`#39`;s arithmetic method and pass any desired `fill_value` to be used in place of missing entries. Here we&`#39`;ll fill with the mean of all values in `A` (computed by first stacking the rows of `A`): ... ## Ufuncs: Operations Between DataFrame and Series¶ ... When performing operations between a `DataFrame` and a `Series`, the index and column alignment is similarly maintained. Operations between a `DataFrame` and a `Series` are similar to operations between a two-dimensional and one-dimensional NumPy array. Consider one common operation, where we find the difference of a two-dimensional array and one of its rows: ... According to NumPy&`#39`;s broadcasting rules (see Computation on Arrays: Broadcasting), subtraction between a two-dimensional array and one of its rows is applied row-wise. ... In Pandas, the convention similarly operates row-wise by default: ... df = pd ... DataFrame(A, columns=list(&`#39`;QRST&`#39`;)) ... If you would instead like to operate column-wise, you can use the object methods mentioned earlier, while specifying the `axis` keyword: ... df.subtract(df[&`#39`; ... &`#39`;], axis=0) ... Note that these `DataFrame`/`Series` operations, like the operations discussed above, will automatically align indices between the two elements: ... This preservation and alignment of indices and columns means that operations on data in Pandas will always maintain the data context, which prevents the types of silly errors that might come up when working with heterogeneous and/or misaligned data in raw NumPy arrays. <title>pandas/core/series.py</title> https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/main/pandas/core/series.py need not be ... .

Subject to certain constraints, the smaller array is “broadcast” across the larger array so that they have compatible shapes. Broadcasting provides a means of vectorizing array operations so that looping occurs in C instead of Python. It does this without making needless copies of data and usually leads to efficient algorithm implementations. There are, however, cases where broadcasting is a bad idea because it leads to inefficient use of memory that slows computation. ... result is equivalent ... When operating on two arrays, NumPy compares their shapes element-wise. It starts with the trailing (i.e. rightmost) dimension and works its way left. Two dimensions are compatible when ... 1. they are equal, or 2. one of them is 1. ... If these conditions are not met, a `ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together` exception is thrown, indicating that the arrays have incompatible shapes. ... Input arrays do not need to have the same number of dimensions. The resulting array will have the same number of dimensions as the input array with the greatest number of dimensions, where the size of each dimension is the largest size of the corresponding dimension among the input arrays. Note that missing dimensions are assumed to have size one. ... When either of the dimensions compared is one, the other is used. In other words, dimensions with size 1 are stretched or “copied” to match the other. ... A set of arrays is called “broadcast ... ” to the same ... the above rules produce a valid result. ... An example of broadcasting when a 1-d array is added to a 2-d array: ... ``` >>> import numpy as np >>> a = np.array([[ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0], ... [10.0, 10.0, 10.0], ... [20.0, 20.0, 20.0], ... [30.0, 30.0, 30.0]]) >>> b = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0]) >>> a + b array([[ 1., 2., 3.], [11., 12., 13.], [21., 22., 23.], [31., 32., 33.]]) >>> b = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0]) >>> a + b Traceback (most recent call last): ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together with shapes (4,3) (4,) ``` ... As shown in Figure 2, `b` is added to each row of `a`. In Figure 3, an exception is raised because of the incompatible shapes. Figure 2# A one dimensional array added to a two dimensional array results in broadcasting if number of 1-d array elements matches the number of 2-d array columns. Figure 3# When the trailing dimensions of the arrays are unequal, broadcasting fails because it is impossible to align the values in the rows of the 1st array with the elements of the 2nd arrays for element-by-element addition. ... Broadcasting provides a convenient way of taking the outer product (or any other outer operation) of two arrays. The following example shows an outer addition operation of two 1-d arrays: ... ``` >>> import numpy as np >>> a = np.array([0.0, 10.0, 20.0, 30.0]) >>> b = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0]) >>> a[:, np.newaxis] + b array([[ 1., 2., 3.], [11., 12., 13.], [21., 22., 23.], [31., 32., 33.]]) ``` Figure 4# In some cases, broadcasting stretches both arrays to form an output array larger than either of the initial arrays. ... Here the `newaxis` index operator inserts a new axis into `a`, making it a two-dimensional `4x1` array. Combining the `4x1` array with `b`, which has shape `(3,)`, yields a `4x3` array. ... The three-dimensional array, `diff`, is a consequence of broadcasting, not a necessity for the calculation. Large data sets will generate a large intermediate array that is computationally inefficient. Instead, if each observation is calculated individually using a Python loop around the code in the two-dimensional example above, a much smaller array is used. <title>error in using DataFrame.mul, related to ndarray</title> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36607862/error-in-using-dataframe-mul-related-to-ndarray # error in using DataFrame.mul, related to ndarray - Tags: numpy, pandas, error-handling, dataframe - Score: 1 - Views: 304 - Answers: 1 - Asked by: Yui Hung Cheung (25 rep) - Asked on: Apr 13, 2016 - Last active: Apr 15, 2016 - License: CC BY-SA 3.0 --- ## Question I reference from this article,[Get dot-product of dataframe with vector, and return dataframe, in Pandas](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15753916/dot-products-in-pandas), to use DataFrame.mul. my problem code is this ``` df.mul(weight) ``` where weight is data type of &`#39`;numpy.ndarray&`#39`; with shape (17L, 1L),and the print result is ``` [[ 2.37005330e-07] [ 2.80515078e-07] [ 2.80267682e-07] [ 2.79124521e-07] [ 2.01799847e-07] [ 2.71495529e-07] [ 2.81640566e-07] [ 2.30099310e-07] [ 1.95221059e-07] [ 2.10244387e-07] [ 2.82483251e-07] [ 2.29050342e-07] [ 9.99996381e-01] [ 8.95340469e-08] [ 3.90767576e-08] [ 2.31231511e-07] [ 2.79852240e-07]] ``` where df is a dataframe object with shape \[20208 rows x 17 columns\], the print result is like ``` 12&88 17&123 .... modified datetime 2015-09-07 09:19:00 1.000000 1.000000 .... 2015-09-07 09:30:00 1.000000 1.000000 .... 2015-09-07 09:31:00 1.000000 0.974714 .... 2015-09-07 09:32:00 1.000000 0.978203 .... 2015-09-07 09:33:00 1.000000 0.978203 .... 2015-09-07 09:34:00 1.000000 0.990576 .... .... ``` But when i execute df.mul(weight),it occurs ``` ValueError: Shape of passed values is (1, 17), indices imply (17, 20208) ``` I tried a simpler array with shape (17L,) and there is no problem to use df.mul.so I wonder if it should change the weight to a ndarray to array, but it is difficult to me.

This suggests that in the simplest case `df.mul` will just perform a numpy-style multiplication of the corresponding arrays. So, you&`#39`;re trying to multiply an array of shape `(20208,17)` with one of shape `(17,1)`. This will not work. The way [_array broadcasting_](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.10.1/user/basics.broadcasting.html) works in numpy is that arrays with certain singular dimensions can be automatically expanded by numpy in order to match them to other, larger arrays in arithmetic operations. The catch is that if one of the arrays have fewer dimensions, then _leading_ singleton dimensions are assumed. So, for example, the following array shapes can be multiplied/added/divided/etc together without problems: - `(1,17)` and `(20208,17)` because the non-singleton dimensions match - `(17,)` and `(20208,17)` because the first is implicitly compatible with `(1,17)` (leading singleton dimensions are assumed) - (5,1,17)`and`(1,20208,17)`(or just`(20208,17)\`) The following can&`#39`;t be broadcast together: - `(1,16)` and `(20208,17)` because there&`#39`;s dimension mismatch - `(16,) and`(20208,17)`because the mismatch is there even after implicitly expanding the first one to shape`(1,16)\` - `(17,1)` and `(20208,17)` for now obvious reasons The problem is that pandas shows the cryptic e…[truncated]
