"""A minimalistic implemention of CMA-ES without using `numpy`.

The Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy, CMA-ES, serves for
numerical nonlinear function minimization.

The **main functionality** is implemented in

1. class `CMAES`, and

2. function `fmin` which is a small single-line-usage wrapper around
   `CMAES`.

This code has two **purposes**:

1. for READING and UNDERSTANDING the basic flow and the details of the
   CMA-ES *algorithm*. The source code is meant to be read. For a quick
   glance, study the first few code lines of `fmin` and the code of
   method `CMAES.tell`, where all the real work is done in about 20 lines
   of code (search "def tell" in the source). Otherwise, reading from
   the top is a feasible option, where the codes of `fmin`,
   `CMAES.__init__`, `CMAES.ask`, `CMAES.tell` are of particular
   interest.

2. apply CMA-ES when the python module `numpy` is not available.
   When `numpy` is available, `cma.fmin` or `cma.CMAEvolutionStrategy` are
   preferred to run "serious" simulations. The latter code has many more
   lines, but usually executes faster, offers a richer user interface,
   better termination options, boundary and noise handling, injection,
   automated restarts...

Dependencies: `math.exp`, `math.log` and `random.normalvariate` (modules
`matplotlib.pylab` and `sys` are optional).

Testing: call ``python purecma.py`` at the OS shell. Tested with
Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.5, 3.6.

    """non-linear non-convex minimization procedure, a functional
    interface to CMA-ES.

    Parameters
    ==========
        `objective_fct`: `callable`
            a function that takes as input a `list` of floats (like
            [3.0, 2.2, 1.1]) and returns a single `float` (a scalar).
            The objective is to find ``x`` with ``objective_fct(x)``
            to be as small as possible.
        `xstart`: `list` or sequence
            list of numbers (like `[3.2, 2, 1]`), initial solution vector,
            its length defines the search space dimension.
        `sigma`: `float`
            initial step-size, standard deviation in any coordinate
        `args`: `tuple` or sequence
            additional (optional) arguments passed to `objective_fct`
        `ftarget`: `float`
            target function value
        `maxfevals`: `int` or `str`
            maximal number of function evaluations, a string
            is evaluated with ``N`` as search space dimension
        `verb_disp`: `int`
            display on console every `verb_disp` iteration, 0 for never
        `verb_log`: `int`
            data logging every `verb_log` iteration, 0 for never
        `verb_save`: `int`
            save logged data every ``verb_save * verb_log`` iteration

    Return
    ======
    The `tuple` (``xmin``:`list`, ``es``:`CMAES`), where ``xmin`` is the
    best seen (evaluated) solution and ``es`` is the correspoding `CMAES`
    instance. Consult ``help(es.result)`` of property `result` for further
    results.

    Example
    =======
    The following example minimizes the function `ff.elli`:

    >>> try: from cma import purecma
    ... except ImportError: import purecma
    >>> def felli(x):
    ...     return sum(10**(6 * i / (len(x)-1)) * xi**2

    >>> es.result[1]  # doctest:+SKIP
    2.72976881789e-14
    >>> es.logger.plot()  # doctest:+SKIP

    Details
    =======
    After importing `purecma`, this call:

    >>> es = purecma.fmin(pcma.ff.elli, 10 * [0.5], 0.3, verb_save=0)[1]  # doctest:+SKIP

    and these lines:

    >>> es = purecma.CMAES(10 * [0.5], 0.3)
    >>> es.optimize(purecma.ff.elli, callback=es.logger.add)  # doctest:+SKIP

    do pretty much the same. The `verb_save` parameter to `fmin` adds
    the possibility to plot the saved data *during* the execution from a
    different Python shell like ``pcma.CMAESDataLogger().load().plot()``.
    For example, with ``verb_save == 3`` every third time the logger
    records data they are saved to disk as well.

class CMAES(OOOptimizer):  # could also inherit from object
    """class for non-linear non-convex numerical minimization with CMA-ES.

    The class implements the interface define in `OOOptimizer`, namely
    the methods `__init__`, `ask`, `tell`, `stop`, `disp` and property
    `result`.

    Examples
    --------

    The Jupyter notebook or IPython are the favorite environments to
    execute these examples, both in ``%pylab`` mode. All examples
    minimize the function `elli`, output is not shown.

    First we need to import the module we want to use. We import `purecma`
    from `cma` as (aliased to) ``pcma``::

        from cma import purecma as pcma

    The shortest example uses the inherited method
    `OOOptimizer.optimize`::

        es = pcma.CMAES(8 * [0.1], 0.5).optimize(pcma.ff.elli)

    See method `CMAES.__init__` for a documentation of the input
    parameters to `CMAES`. We might have a look at the result::

        print(es.result[0])  # best solution and
        print(es.result[1])  # its function value

    `result` is a property of `CMAES`. In order to display more exciting
    output, we may use the `CMAESDataLogger` instance in the `logger`
    attribute of `CMAES`::

        es.logger.plot()  # if matplotlib is available

    Virtually the same example can be written with an explicit loop
    instead of using `optimize`, see also `fmin`. This gives insight
    into the `CMAES` class interface and entire control over the
    iteration loop::

        pcma.fmin??  # print source, works in jupyter/ipython only
        es = pcma.CMAES(9 * [0.5], 0.3)  # calls CMAES.__init__()

        # this loop resembles the method optimize
        while not es.stop():  # iterate
            X = es.ask()      # get candidate solutions
            f = [pcma.ff.elli(x) for x in X]  # evaluate solutions
            es.tell(X, f)     # do all the real work
            es.disp(20)       # display info every 20th iteration
            es.logger.add(es) # log another "data line"

        # final output
        print('termination by', es.stop())
        print('best f-value =', es.result[1])
        print('best solution =', es.result[0])

        print('potentially better solution xmean =', es.result[5])
        print("let's check f(xmean) = ", pcma.ff.elli(es.result[5]))
        es.logger.plot()  # if matplotlib is available

    A very similar example which may also save the logged data within
    the loop is the implementation of function `fmin`.

    Details
    -------
    Most of the work is done in the method `tell`. The property
    `result` contains more useful output.

    Examples
    ========

    The data may come from `fmin` or `CMAES` and the simulation may
    still be running in a different Python shell.

    Use the default logger from `CMAES`:

    >>> try: from cma import purecma as pcma
    ... except ImportError: import purecma as pcma
    >>> es = pcma.CMAES(3 * [0.1], 1)
    >>> isinstance(es.logger, pcma.CMAESDataLogger)  # type(es.logger)
    True
    >>> while not es.stop():
    ...     X = es.ask()
    ...     es.tell(X, [pcma.ff.elli(x) for x in X])
    ...     es.logger.add(es)  # doctest: +SKIP
    >>> es.logger.save()
    >>> # es.logger.plot()  #

    Load and plot previously generated data:

    >>> logger = pcma.CMAESDataLogger().load()
    >>> logger.filename == "_CMAESDataLogger_datadict.py"
    True

    >>> # logger.plot()

    TODO: the recorded data are kept in memory and keep growing, which
    may well lead to performance issues for (very?) long runs. Ideally,
    it should be possible to dump data to a file and clear the memory and
    also to downsample data to prevent plotting of long runs to take
    forever. ``"], 'key': "`` or ``"]}"`` is the place where to
    prepend/append new data in the file.

    ... except ImportError: import purecma as pcma
    >>> import random
    >>> random.seed(8)
    >>> xmin, es = pcma.fmin(pcma.ff.rosenbrock, 4 * [0.5], 0.5,
    ...                      verb_disp=0, verb_log=1)
    >>> print(es.counteval)
    1712
    >>> print(es.best.evals)
    1704
    >>> assert es.best.f < 1e-12
    >>> random.seed(5)
    >>> es = pcma.CMAES(4 * [0.5], 0.5)
    >>> es.params = pcma.CMAESParameters(es.params.dimension,
    ...                                  es.params.lam,

    ...                   es.result[2] < 1600))
    True, True

    Large population size:

    >>> random.seed(4)
    >>> es = pcma.CMAES(3 * [1], 1)
    >>> es.params = pcma.CMAESParameters(es.params.dimension, 300,
    ...                                  pcma.RecombinationWeights)
    >>> es.logger = pcma.CMAESDataLogger()
    >>> try:
    ...    es = es.optimize(pcma.ff.elli, verb_disp=0)
    ... except AttributeError:  # OOOptimizer.optimize is not available
    ...     while not es.stop():

    >>> assert es.result[1] < 1e13
