Put the ProgressIndicator inside a do loop (and hopefully paralleldo loop)?

Posted 8 years ago

Hello, I am trying to transfer the indicator bar to the user interface for my application but I fail to do so. I have 2 problems:

  1. When I use ParallelDo loop the indicator bar is not get updated with the calculation. I tried to implant the idea from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7352461/monitoring-progress-of-a-parallel-computation-in-mathematica , no success.
  2. I would like to insert a row to my user interface where I can insert the indicator bar.

I got the idea using Monitor and ProgressIndicator couple from -> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4398214/update-a-progress-bar-in-mathematica

Here, what I did so far. Main code

Get[FileNameJoin[{NotebookDirectory[EvaluationNotebook[]], 
    "DummyPackage.wl"}]];
Panel[DynamicModule[{np = 1000, nd = 30, Res = 1.0}, 
  Column[{Style["Random", "Function"] , 
    Row[{"Digits ", InputField[Dynamic[nd]]}, Spacer[5]], 
    Row[{"Precision ", InputField[Dynamic[np]]}, Spacer[5]], 
    Button[Style["Calculate", Green, Bold], 
     Res = DummyPackage`myDummyF[nd, np], Method -> "Queued"], 
    Row[{Style["Result ", 12, Red], 
      InputField[Dynamic[Res], FieldSize -> 30, Enabled -> False]}, 
     Spacer[15]]

    }],
  Initialization :> (
    Get[FileNameJoin[{NotebookDirectory[EvaluationNotebook[]], 
        "DummyPackage.wl"}]];)]]

the package

BeginPackage["DummyPackage`"]
myDummyF[nd_,np_]:=Module[{mat,mat2,aI},

ns=200;
mat=SetAccuracy[RandomReal[{-100,100},ns],nd];
               mat2=SetAccuracy[RandomReal[{-200,200},ns],nd];

aI=ConstantArray[0,np];
SetSharedVariable[aI,iC];
Time=AbsoluteTiming[
If[nd<=16,
Monitor[Do[
If[iC==2,Print["---------------------"]];
If[iC==2,Print["Do Loop"," nd= ",nd," np= ",np]];

aI[[iC]]=SetAccuracy[mat.(mat2/iC^0.5),nd],{iC,np}],
ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[iC/np]]],
Monitor[ParallelDo[
If[iC==2,Print["---------------------"]];
If[iC==2,Print[" ParallelDo Loop"," nd= ",nd," np= ",np]];

aI[[iC]]=SetAccuracy[mat.(mat2/iC^0.5),nd],{iC,np}],ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[iC/np]]]]];
Print["Do loop time = ",Time[[1]]];
aInum=Apply[Plus,(aI/np)];
Print["Total = ",aInum];
Print["---------------------"];
Return[aInum]]
SetAttributes[{myDummyF},{ReadProtected,Protected,Locked}];
EndPackage[];

Here I can't see the bar in the nb. If I don't use a user interface for example :

myDummyF[nd_, np_] := Module[{mat, mat2, aI},

   ns = 200;
   mat = SetAccuracy[RandomReal[{-100, 100}, ns], nd];
                 mat2 = SetAccuracy[RandomReal[{-200, 200}, ns], nd];

   aI = ConstantArray[0, np];
   SetSharedVariable[aI, iC];

   Time = AbsoluteTiming[
     If[nd <= 16,
      Monitor[Do[
        If[iC == 2, Print["Do Loop"]];
        aI[[iC]] = SetAccuracy[mat.(mat2/iC^0.5), nd], {iC, np}], 
       ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[iC/np]]],
      Monitor[ParallelDo[
        If[iC == 2, Print[" ParallelDo Loop"]];
        aI[[iC]] = SetAccuracy[mat.(mat2/iC^0.5), nd], {iC, np}], 
       ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[iC/np]]]]];
   Print["Do loop time = ", Time[[1]], ", np = ", np, ", nd = ", nd];
   aInum = Apply[Plus, (aI/np)];
   Print["Total = ", aInum];
   Return[aInum]];
np = 100000;
nd = 15;
myDummyF[nd, np];

Do Loop version is working but I am not able to make it work for ParallelDo.

Thank you.

ps: I could not attach .wl format so I saved the package as .m file.
