About this page

This page describes all the tiny (and less tiny) technical projects published in the folder publis/.

This folder contains a lot of small productions (softwares, scripts, configuration etc); and some of my more serious projects.

Main projects

Here is a list of the main projects published in the folder publis/, ordered by importance.

ansicolortags

ansicolortags is a small Python module, supporting both version 2 (2.7+) and 3 (3.4+), designed to easily and efficiently use ANSI colors in a terminal application from Python, on UNIX or Linux (or on Windows via Cygwin, or on Mac OS X).

https://badge.fury.io/py/ansicolortags.svg https://readthedocs.org/projects/ansicolortags/badge/?version=latest

  • It is available from Pypi (v0.4), and can be install with a simple command: pip install ansicolortags !

  • The complete documentation for the module is here: http://ansicolortags.readthedocs.io/.

  • This new package is based on my old ANSIColors-balises, which was too old and only supported Python 2. ANSIColors-balises has been downloaded about 5000 times during march 2013 and February 2016.

  • A small example of its use (the output is not displayed with colors here because Sphinx does not support including colors in the output of such code samples):

    >>> # The good way (and safe) to use ansicolortags:
>>> try:
…     from ansicolortags import printc
>>> except ImportError:
…     def printc(a): print(a)  # Placeholder
>>> printc("<red>This is red!<white> That's white.<blue> And that is blue.<reset> (not working here)")
This is red! That's white. And that is blue. (not working here)

  • But in a terminal, this code will give: « This is red! That’s white. And that is blue. (not working here) ».

latex

Some files and useful tiny programs to use \(\LaTeX{}\).

In particular, autotex is the tiny Bash script I use on a regular basis to write \(\LaTeX{}\) documents without having to manually write the header part (with \usepackage and other useless parts).

State:

puzzle

A small game of Tetravex, written in OCaml for a programming course in my Bachelor (3rd year, Avril 2012). I had a grade of 17/20. Cleaned-up in March 2014, and open-source on my bitbucket account: bitbucket.org/lbesson/projet-puzzle-ocaml-2012.

State:

Works well but not maintained.

Zenity

A tiny library for OCaml, to use the GNU Zenity tool in a simple, efficient and well-typed manner (but the code is dirty). Open-sourced on my bitbucket account: bitbucket.org/lbesson/zenity-ocaml.

It works « like this » : no need for any installation, you just have to include the source file zenity.ml and zenity.mli in your OCaml project. For instance, in a OCaml console or in a program:

open Zenity;;
let my_color = color_selection ~title:"Choose a color please" () ;;
(* Will ask the user to select a color, and return it as a string,
it does the same as calling 'zenity --color-selection --title="Choose a color please"', in a terminal. *)
State:

Not actively maintained (April 2014), but it works with the latest versions of OCaml (4.03.0) and Zenity.

kaggle

A small project, for the Introduction to Machine Learning in my Bachelor (3rd year) at ENS Cachan in May 2013. Nothing especially interesting, except that I used Python 2.7 to handle all the different aspects of this learning project (scripts, programs, documentation, report, slides etc). I had a grade of 15/20.

State:

Old! (May 2013)

Bomberman

A small Bomberman game, with multi-player support on a local network (multi machines), written in Python 2.7, between Nov. 2012 and Feb. 2013 for the networking project in my Master 1 (course 1-21 MPRI), for which I received 16.9/20 (second best grade). Open-sourced: bitbucket.org/lbesson/mpri-bomberman.

State:

No longer maintained ! (March 2013)

PDE_02_2015

Mathematical and numerical solution to a real-world Partial Dynamic Equation. Implementation in several languages, in pure Python 2 (PDE_02_2015), and in MATLAB/Octave (PDE_09_2014, and also in pure OCaml with GnuPlot for the display).

State:

Research (2014, 2015), but it worked well.

f6_sphinx_theme

A clean and white theme for Sphinx doc, open-source on GitHub.

State:

Up-to-date (2016), works well.

MOcamlPlot

A tiny OCaml library, designed to draw graphical plots in a console. This project was implementing a very dirty operators overloading (something that OCaml, a fully statically type language, should NOT allow), and commands for plotting « like Maple » (e.g., plot("cos((x+5)/2.16)",0--10)), and other cool stuff. I didn’t find the time to keep it up-to-date.

State:

Not maintained (Feb 2012). Might work. Probably not.

ColorML

Experiments to use colors in a OCaml v3.12 command line program.

State:

Very old (2012).
