Parameters

all : {'ignore', 'warn' 'raise'}, optional

Set treatment for all type of special-function errors at once. The options are:

• 'ignore' Take no action when the error occurs

• 'warn' Print a SpecialFunctionWarning when the error occurs (via the Python warnings module)

• 'raise' Raise a SpecialFunctionError when the error occurs.

The default is to not change the current behavior. If behaviors for additional categories of special-function errors are specified, then all is applied first, followed by the additional categories.

singular : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for singularities.

underflow : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for underflow.

overflow : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for overflow.

slow : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for slow convergence.

loss : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for loss of accuracy.

no_result : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for failing to find a result.

domain : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for an invalid argument to a function.

arg : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for an invalid parameter to a function.

other : {'ignore', 'warn', 'raise'}, optional

Treatment for an unknown error.

Returns

olderr : dict

Dictionary containing the old settings.

Set how special-function errors are handled.

geterr

get the current way of handling special-function errors

similar numpy function for floating-point errors

Examples

>>> import scipy.special as sc
... from pytest import raises
... sc.gammaln(0)
inf

>>> olderr = sc.seterr(singular='raise')
... with raises(sc.SpecialFunctionError):
...     sc.gammaln(0)
...

>>> _ = sc.seterr(**olderr)

We can also raise for every category except one.

>>> olderr = sc.seterr(all='raise', singular='ignore')
... sc.gammaln(0)
inf

>>> with raises(sc.SpecialFunctionError):
...     sc.spence(-1)
...

>>> _ = sc.seterr(**olderr)

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
