growattServer 1.4.0 - function api.dashboard_data() timespan argument

Im having issues understand what arguments to send to the growattServer 1.4.0 function api.dashboard_data()
The function looks like
def dashboard_data(self, plant_id, timespan=Timespan.hour, date=None):
class Timespan(IntEnum):
hour = 0
day = 1
month = 2
If I try
print(api.dashboard_data('INVERTERID',timespan=0,date='2023-02-01'))
I get:
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for 'in': 'int' and 'EnumType'
I get the same error if I do
print(api.dashboard_data('INVERTERID',0,date='2023-02-01'))
I do not understand what arguments to pass for the timespan function and would appricate some help with this.

For timespan you are passing in a 0 -- in both attempts; includeing the parameter name makes no difference.
Try:
print(api.dashboard_data('INVERTERID', Timespan.hour, date='2023-02-01')
Questions for you:
can plant_id be a string?
can date be a string? Or should it be a datetime.date?

appending to list within list gives AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'append'

when executing the following code, I get the error message "AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'append'". I know this error occurs when I try to append to an integer, for example, which is not the case here since I checked that via type(section[len(section)-1]) which returned list
def increasing_section(a_list):
section = [[a_list[0]]]
i = 1
while i < len(a_list):
if a_list[i-1] < a_list[i]:
section[len(section)-1].append(a_list[i])
else:
section.append(a_list[i])
i += 1
return section

The error comes from this line:
section[len(section)-1].append(a_list[i])
because at some point, when your if condition will not be met, the following line:
section.append(a_list[i])
will add an integer in section and the first line will produce error as section[len(section)-1] will be an integer

I'm not sure what exactly you are trying to do, but to fix this you need to change section[len(section)-1].append(a_list[i]). Because section[len(section)-1] will return an integer and integer doesn't have append method, so if you want to insert an element to a list at a particular index, try section.insert(index, value)

Python 3: Is this a float or a list?

I have a class which has the attribute 'latest_level' and this should be a floating point number. I then have a method which includes latest_level in an equation to return another floating point number. In this method, if I use the line:
def relative_water_level(self):
level = float(self.latest_level)
I get the output:
TypeError: float() argument must be a string or a number, not 'list'
Which I assume means self.latest_level is a list. If I change this line to:
def relative_water_level(self):
level = float(self.latest_level[0])
I get the output:
TypeError: 'float' object is not subscriptable
Which I assume means self.latest_level is a float. Anybody have any idea why this is happening and how I can get it to treat self.latest_level as a float?
Edit: I don't try and subscript later. The rest of the method is:
level = float(self.latest_level[0])
low = float(self.typical_range[0])
high = float(self.typical_range[1])
return ((level - low)/high)
And the Error specifies that the Error is in the line mentioned above
File "C:\Users\rache\Documents\Flood Warning\partia-flood-warning
system\floodsystem\station.py", line 58, in relative_water_level
level = float(self.latest_level[0])
TypeError: 'float' object is not subscriptable

subscriptable object refers to something which implements __getitem__() method. you might be changing latest_level's type. I have added a sample code which will produce the same error.
class Level:
latest_level = 20.0
def getLevels(self):
self.latest_level = [20,30]
def relative_water_level(self):
level = float(self.latest_level[0])
print(level)
waterLevel = Level()
waterLevel.relative_water_level()
waterLevel.getLevels()
waterLevel.relative_water_level()
for debugging use type(self.latest_level) before float(self.latest_level) and change according to stack trace.

Problem solved. Turns out some of the flood monitoring stations I'm importing data from are producing messed up data with lists of numbers all over the place, so I've just had to ignore those stations for now. Thanks for all your help and good luck to any of you who live near those rivers!

int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'generator'

I am stuck with two errors, and I assume it comes from my misuse of the classes, but I can't figure out how to fix that...
I get :
AttributeError: Organism instance has no attribute 'remove'
or
int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'generator'
def filtre_vecteurs(organisms):
nb_organisms = len(organisms)
vector_size = len(organisms[0].vector)
for i in range(vector_size):
tmp = 0
for j in range(nb_organisms):
organisms[j].vector[i] = int(organisms[j].vector[i])
tmp += organisms[j].vector[i]
if tmp == nb_organisms :
for j in range(0, nb_organisms):
organisms[j].remove(organisms[j].vector[i])
return organisms
"organisms" is a list of objets
"organisms[0].vector" :vector of the first object of the list
a vector looks like this [1,0,1,1...]
thanks a lot for your help !

Your errors are:
AttributeError: Organism instance has no attribute 'remove'
This is in line organisms[j].remove(organisms[j].vector[i])
Here, it seems organisms[j] which is an organism has no remove() method. You probably want to remove the element organisms[j].vector[i] from organisms[j].vector:
organisms[j].vector.remove(organisms[j].vector[i])
int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'generator'
This is due to line:
organisms[j].vector[i] = int(organisms[j].vector[i])
Are you sure that organisms[j].vector[i] is a number/string?. Can you try printing it and see if it is indeed a number/string?

Here are things to look at:
Error 1:
What is the type of organisms[j].vector[i]? From the error message, it appears as though it is a generator, so has no conversion to int.
Error 2:
What does your organism class look like?
From the line:
organisms[j].remove(organisms[j].vector[i])
which I presume causes your second error. Your Organism class has no method called 'remove'.

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'str' and 'str'

a'$'
money=1000000;
portfolio=0;
value=0;
value=(yahoostock.get_price('RIL.BO'));
portfolio=(16*(value));
print id(portfolio);
print id(value);

I am getting the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/dee/dee.py", line 12, in <module>
money= (value-portfolio);
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'str' and 'str'
Since money is integer and so is portfolio, I cant solve this problem..anyone can help???

value=(yahoostock.get_price('RIL.BO'));
Apparently returns a string not a number. Convert it to a number:
value=int(yahoostock.get_price('RIL.BO'));
Also the signal-to-noise ratio isn't very high. You've lots of (,), and ; you don't need. You assign variable only to replace them on the next line. You can make your code nicer like so:
money = 1000000
value = int(yahoostock.get_price('RIL.BO'));
portfolio = 16 * value;
print id(portfolio);
print id(value);
money -= portfolio;

money and portfolio are apparently strings, so cast them to ints:
money= int( float(money)-float(portfolio) )

As the error message clearly states, both are string, cast with int(var).
Note:
Let's see what can we decude from the error message:
portfolio must be string(str), which means value is also a string. Like this:
>>> 16*"a"
'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'
and apparently you missed to post relevant code because the error message tells you that money is str as well.

I think the problem here is assuming that because you have initialised variables with integer values they will remain as integers. Python doesn't work this way. Assigning a value with = only binds the name to the value without paying any attention to type. For example:
a = 1 # a is an int
a = "Spam!" # a is now a str
I assume yahoostock.getprice(), like many functions that get data from websites, returns a string. You need to convert this using int() before doing your maths.
