Hi,

I'm currently working in AWS and trying to use a Lambda function to automate the creation of my AMIs. I'm doing this via the use of the Python script below, but when I test it it returns an error. Can anyone shed any light on what I should be looking at please?

Script:

import boto3
import collections
import datetime
import sys
import pprint

ec = boto3.client('ec2')
#image = ec.Image('id')

def lambda_handler(event, context):
   
    reservations = ec.describe_instances(
        Filters=[
            {'Name': 'tag-key', 'Values': ['backup', 'Backup']},
        ]
    ).get(
        'Reservations', []
    )

    instances = sum(
        [
            [i for i in r['Instances']]
            for r in reservations
        ], [])

    print "Found %d instances that need backing up" % len(instances)

    to_tag = collections.defaultdict(list)

for instance in instances:
    try:
        retention_days = [
            int(t.get('Value')) for t in instance['Tags']
            if t['Key'] == 'Retention'][0]
    except IndexError:
        retention_days = 7

    finally:

        #for dev in instance['BlockDeviceMappings']:
        #    if dev.get('Ebs', None) is None:
        #        continue
        #    vol_id = dev['Ebs']['VolumeId']
        #    print "Found EBS volume %s on instance %s" % (
        #        vol_id, instance['InstanceId'])

            #snap = ec.create_snapshot(
            #    VolumeId=vol_id,
      …

How to copy and paste data with conditional formatting format from minitab worksheet into excel ?
I tried but they copy in values and the format that i had in minitab was not reflected in excel.

Hi,
I would like to prepare data for regression analysis.
I can prepare data in two forms.
a) values
b) rankings.
example:
values  60,30,25,90
rankings 2,3,4,1
Which format would be most suitable or does it not matter ?
many thanks
Ian

Hello,

I have  a list of lists.  The lists in the list of lists are file names.  I use lapply to read and merge the contents of each list in the list of lists (3 merged contents in this case  which will be the content of 3 files).  Then, I  have to change the name of the 3 resulting files and finally I have to write the contents of the files to each file.

 lc <- list("test.txt", "test.txt", "test.txt", "test.txt")
 lc1 <- list("test.txt", "test.txt", "test.txt")
 lc2 <- list("test.txt", "test.txt")
#list of lists.  The lists contain file names
 lc <- list(lc, lc1, lc2)
#new names for the three lists in the list of lists
 new_dataFns <- list("name1", "name2", "name3")
 file_paths <- NULL
 new_path <- NULL
#add the file names to the path and read and merge the contents of each list in the list of lists
 lapply(
    lc,
    function(lc) {
     filenames <- file.path(dataFnsDir, lc)
     dataList= lapply(filenames, function (x) read.table(file=x, header=TRUE))
     Reduce(function(x,y) merge(x,y), dataList)
     #   print(dataList)

    }
  )  

#add the new name of the file to the path total will be 3 paths/fille_newname.tsv.  
 lapply(new_path, function(new_path){new_path <- file.path(getwd(), new_dataFns)

The statements above work because lc and  new_dataFns are global and I can pass them to the lapply function

#Finally, I need to write the merged contents to the corresponding file (path/name.tsv).  I tried the following statement, but this …

I would like to change the names of the members of the list. The list is of a CPI hierarchy - the trouble is the names are now ID numbers, that are difficult to interpret. Each one of the members has a readable tag, that is "CPI.Tag".

How would I swap the label that is used for the name  currently to the "CPI.Tag"? (the display of a few sample members is attached)


I thought it would be something along the lines of names(jpCPIlist)<-jpCPIlist$CPI.Tag, but evidently not..

How to remove any character from a string if it is not part of the below "x character set" .
Remove a character from a given string -if it is not part of the below x character set.
X character set: After removing the character there should not be any space on the character that gets removed.
---------------------
a b c d e f g h I j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
/ - ? : ( ) . , ‘ +

Example
     '020?Dome@&++;stic CT out;%going?20测试叙事测试叙事@@@@test'
Expected output is
    020?Dome++stic CT outgoing?20test


I am using the below query but it is replacing '+'. I don't want to replace this + because it a part of x character set.

select translate(REGEXP_REPLACE ('020?Dome@&++;stic CT out;%going?20测试叙事测试叙事@@@@test','[^' || CHR(32) ||'-' ||CHR (127) || ']', ''),'+=!“%&*<>;{@#_',' ') AS TEST from dual;

Hello,
I'm trying to pass a value to a List, but I get an error Cannot implicitly convert System.Collections.Generic.List<char> to System.Collections.Generic.List<string>.
So, here's my code...

public List<string> NomeContrato { get; set; }

Select all Open in new window

BindingSource bs = new BindingSource();
            bs.DataSource = LoadContratos();
            var editForm = new Concelhos_Edit();
            var editFormModel = new Info();
            editFormModel.Id = concelhos_datagrid.CurrentRow.Cells[0].Value.ToString();
            var _nomeContrato = contratosdt.AsEnumerable().FirstOrDefault(a => a.Field<int>("IdContrato") == ((DataRowView)bs.Current).Row.Field<int>("IdContrato")).Field<string>("Designacao");
            editFormModel.NomeContrato = _nomeContrato.ToList(); //--> Here's where the code breaks and get Error!

Select all Open in new window

Changing this

public List<string> NomeContrato { get; set; }

Select all Open in new window

to this

public List<char> NomeContrato { get; set; }

Select all Open in new window

I would like to perform fractal analysis on a financial series (stock exchange index). What shall I use (prices or log returns) for calculating fractal dimension, Hurst Exponent, for performing R/S Analysis and for predictions? Are there R functions that calculate all of these immediately? Are there any things I need to take care of when analyzing the index? Thank you in advance!

As the administrator for our MS Server 2016 Essentials network, I sometimes need to  view coworkers c drive.

I simply use WinKey R  > \\JanesCpu\c$   and supply my network admin credentials.  

For the rest of the day I can view  JanesCpu without supplying the credentials.

Clearly the admin credentials are being saved somewhere, but where are they, and how can I delete them when I am done?
