Hi,
Given the Lorenz code shared yesterday, is there a way
to generate a log file of the x,y,z points generated?
Thanks in advance.

In case you deleted the code:

# Choose random starting points, uniformly distributed from -15 to 15
np.random.seed(1)
# changing from -15,30 to 10,5 below starts the drawing in the middle,
# rather than getting the long line from below....
# if using N_Traj > 1, return to orig values.
# x0 = -15 + 30 * np.random.random((N_trajectories, 3))
x0 = 10 + 5 * np.random.random((N_trajectories, 3))
# Solve for the trajectories
# orig values: 0,4,1000

# 2nd value -- increase it -- more points, but speedier.
# change middle num from 4 to 15 -- this adds points!!!!!!!!

Expression Encoder on PC.
