[NEST Users] Re: Weights assignment error with mpirun

Hi Hans,

Thanks for your information. Fortunately, I do not normalize output connections (only input), hence, this code works for me.

Another question. Take that I call nest.Simulate() inside a for loop and I want to normalize weights after every iteration. In order to avoid calling GetConnections() for every loop iteration, may I get the connections calling GetConnections() just once? May I safely suppose that after every Simulate() new weights of my connections (they are changed because I use STDP) will be available (for reading) using the same variable? An example code would be something like:

my_conn = GetConnections(...)

for iter in range(...) nest.Simulate(...) normalize_connections(my_conn) # function that normalizes weights and calls nest.SetStatus(my_conn, ...)

Many thanks in advance!
