DORA - San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment

The outputs from scientific research are many and varied, including: research articles reporting new knowledge, data, reagents, and software; intellectual property; and highly trained young scientists. Funding agencies, institutions that employ scientists, and scientists themselves, all have a desire, and need, to assess the quality and impact of scientific outputs. It is thus imperative that scientific output is measured accurately and evaluated wisely.

smach - Finite State Machine in ROS

SMACH is a task-level architecture for rapidly creating complex robot behavior. At its core, SMACH is a ROS-independent Python library to build hierarchical state machines. SMACH is a new library that takes advantage of very old concepts in order to quickly create robust robot behavior with maintainable and modular code.

Analyzing Your File System and Folder Structures with Python - Parametric Thoughts

Say you have an external hard drive with layers upon layers of cryptically named folders and intricate mazes of directories (like here, or here). How can you make sense of this mess? Python offers various tools in the Python standard library to deal with your file system and the folderstats module can be of additional help to gain insights into your file system.

In this article, you will learn the various ways to traverse and explore the file system with Python. In the next section, you will see how to extract statistics from files and directories. In the last section, you will see a practical way to analyze folder structures with folderstats and Pandas with some use cases and visualizations along the way.
