A SOX 1KHz Sinewave Generator Using A Windows, (TM), Batch File... (Batch)

2013-05-02T17:48:18-07:00

Batch recipe 578516 by Barry Walker (audio, generator, sound, sound_exchange, sox, windows).

32 bit Windows to Windows 7...

This batch file generates a 65536 byte binary file to give 8 seconds of pure sinewave at the earphone/speaker output(s)...

It uses ONLY a default Windows 32 bit installation, to Windows 7, except for the installation of SOX...

Obtain SOX from here:-

http://sox.sourceforge.net/

Notepad was the _main_ editor... ;o)

Hopefully the code section does NOT corrupt the binary part which is 8 bytes in size. If it does then let me know on here and I will post a pointer from where to grab it...

Wrap any iterable context manager so it closes when consumed (Python)

2012-11-19T20:10:35-08:00

Python recipe 578342 by Andrew Barnert (contextmanager, context_manager, generator, iterable, iterator, with_statement).

There are a few types in Python—most notably, files—that are both iterators and context managers. For trivial cases, these features are easy to use together, but as soon as you need to use the iterator lazily or asynchronously, a with statement won't help. That's where this recipe comes in handy:

send_async(with_iter(open(path, 'r')))

This also allows you to "forward" closing for a wrapped iterator, so closing the outer iterator also closes the inner one:

sync_async(line.upper() for line in with_iter(open(path, 'r')))

DEMO - Generate A Crude 1KHz Sinewave Using A BASH Script. (Bash)

2013-03-01T19:41:47-08:00

Bash recipe 578477 by Barry Walker (audio, bash, demo, generator, linux, shell, sinewave, sound).

A very simple crude sinewave generator using a BASH script inside a Linux Terminal.

The file required is generated inside the code and requires /dev/audio to work.

Ensure you have this device, if not the download oss-compat from your OS's repository...

It lasts for about 8 seconds before exiting and saves a 65536 byte file to your working directory/drawer/folder as sinewave.raw.

Use an oscilloscope to check the waveform generated...

It is entirely Public Domain and you may do with it as you please...

Colour Bar And Greyscale Generator For Standard Text Mode Python. (Python)

2013-01-18T21:08:21-08:00

Python recipe 578425 by Barry Walker (apple, bar, color, colour, generator, gray, grey, linux, macbook_pro, scale).

This is just a simple colour bar and combined greyscale generator for standard text mode Python...

It relies on the _magic_ of the ANSI Escape sequences to work and does mess with the terminal colours but restores the colours back to the defaults...

See the code for the machines tested on. It might need the colours adjusting for some terminals but I am sure that is not beyond the average coder...

Written so that anyone can see how it works.

To hide the cursor the command "tput" is assumed to be available, if not, try "setterm -cursor off" and "setterm -cursor on" instead...

Enjoy...

A DEMO 6 Bit At A Glance Colouerd Bargraph Generator. (Bash)

2013-01-16T12:26:55-08:00

Bash recipe 578391 by Barry Walker (analogue, anim, apple, bargraph, bash, beep, color, colour, demo, display, generator, linux, macbook_pro). Revision 2.

This code generates a horizontal coloured real time bargraph generator anim for a Macbook Pro 13 inch, OSX 10.7.5, using the default standard Terminal only.

It is UNTESTED on Linux variants but I would like any successful Linux tryers to make a comment in the comments section and tags will be added accordingly otherwise I will assume it does NOT work on other UNIX like variants.

It is a derivative of my 7 bit bargraph generator for Python on this site elsewhere.

The Terminal colours WILL be changed on running but it is simple to return it back to its original state.

Read the code for more information.

Enjoy, (and a Happy New Year)...

Platform Independent White Noise Generator... (Python)

2012-11-25T10:10:45-08:00

Python recipe 578350 by Barry Walker (apple, audio, demo, generator, linux, macbook_pro, noise, program, pyaudio, signal, sound, source, windows).

This code is a derivative of the Pure Sinewave Generator and produces a continuous noise out of the speakers or headphone sockets.

It is for the hobbyist to be able to generate a pseudo-random noise signal for testing with.

It is issued as Public Domian and you may do with it as you please.

It is very easy to convert to Python 3.x.x but as OSX only has 2.7.x and lower ATM then these are what are used...

An installation of pyaudio IS needed for this to work; see the code for more information.

It is near platform independent but sadly the AMIGA is not included, but hey, I have already shown how generate sound for Classic AMIGAs.

Platform Independent 1KHz Pure Audio Sinewave Generator... (Python)

2012-10-23T12:53:37-07:00

Python recipe 578301 by Barry Walker (apple, audio, demo, generator, linux, macbook_pro, program, pyaudio, signal, sinewave, sound, source, windows). Revision 2.

IKHz_SW_OSX.py

A mono _pure_ sinewave generator using standard text mode Python 2.6.7 to at least 2.7.3.

This DEMO kids level 1KHz generator is mainly for a MacBook Pro, (13 inch in my case), OSX 10.7.5 and above. See below...

It is another simple piece of testgear for the young amateur electronics enthusiast and uses pyaudio fully installed for it to work.

PyAudio can be obtained from here:- http://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/pyaudio/

This was primarily for a MacBook Pro, but works on at least 2 Linux flavours and Windows Vista 32 bit...

The sinewave generated is near excellent...

Forwards Compatibility; Generating A Function On The Fly... (Python)

2012-06-06T17:16:27-07:00

Python recipe 578160 by Barry Walker (amiga, demo, e_uae, function, generator, linux, windows, winuae).

This code auto-generates a function that converts a string to bytes only in Python Versions 3.x.x. The function will NOT be generated in Python Versions 1.4.0 to 2.7.x. See the code for all the versions tested on. Inside the code are commented-out lines to show a practical usage for this and WILL be used in future /dev/audio or /dev/dsp access that I may develop...

See the notes right at the bottom and read all the notes inside the code...

This is NOT Public Domain like all my other stuff but is MIT licenced...

Random user generator (Python)

2012-02-27T16:58:33-08:00

Python recipe 578055 by Koppula Varun Raj (generator, pickle, python3, random).

I've worked on a random user generator in C a long time ago, so I thought I'd make an advanced version of it in Python(3.2). I'll have you know, I am an amateur in Python and even programming for that matter so I'd really appreciate some criticism on my code and what more can be added.

About the program - I've added a default list of users, you can modify the list to your convenience and for data persistence, I made use of the pickle module. The random module plays the pivotal role generating the output making use of the choice method. Those along with the os module if the program is being run for the first time on a pc, it will create a data file with the default list.After some digging around, I managed to find os.getlogin() from the python library which was exactly what I was looking for (to get the computer's name making sure it can get the data file to the correct directory). I'm a little skeptical about that part, wondering whether or not it will work on every pc.

Simple Morse Code Generator And Tutor. (Python)

2012-01-09T22:51:12-08:00

Python recipe 578009 by Barry Walker (audio, code, demo, generator, linux, morse, morse_code, sound). Revision 2.

This is not for the big guns, but for the Amateur coder AND radio enthusiast.

It is a DEMO Morse Code Generator and tutor that will generate the tones required for the original standard letters A to Z and numbers 0 to 9. Puctuation is NOT included but hey it is SOOOO simple to modify the code that I will let you, (the ones interested), do that for yourselves... ;o) Read the code for more informaton.

It is for at least standard text mode Python 2.5.2 to 2.7.2 using PCLinuxOS 2009 and Debian 6.0.0. It may well work at a much earlier version. I do have a version for Python 3.x.x but that will be uploaded elsewhere.

As it stands it _sends_ at around 8 WPM, (Words Per Minute).

It is written in such a way that youngsters can understand what is going on.
