TypeError: "x" is read-only

Valid cases, what went wrong.

The global variable or object property that was assigned to is a read-only property. (Technically, it is a non-writable data property .)

This error happens only in strict mode code . In non-strict code, the assignment is silently ignored.

Invalid cases

Read-only properties are not super common, but they can be created using Object.defineProperty() or Object.freeze() .

There are also a few read-only properties built into JavaScript. Maybe you tried to redefine a mathematical constant.

Sorry, you can't do that.

The global variable undefined is also read-only, so you can't silence the infamous "undefined is not a function" error by doing this:

  • Object.defineProperty()
  • Object.freeze()
  • "Which animals have three lungs?" on answers.com
  • Klingons (another answer to that query)

ValueError: assignment destination is read-only [Solved]

# ValueError: assignment destination is read-only [Solved]

The NumPy "ValueError: assignment destination is read-only" occurs when you try to assign a value to a read-only array.

To solve the error, create a copy of the read-only array and modify the copy.

You can use the flags attribute to check if the array is WRITABLE .

Running the code sample produces the following output:

check if writeable

In your case, WRITEABLE will likely be set to False .

In older NumPy versions, you used to be able to set the flag to true by calling the setflags() method.

However, setting the WRITEABLE flag to True ( 1 ) will likely fail if the OWNDATA flag is set to False .

You will likely get the following error:

  • "ValueError: cannot set WRITEABLE flag to True of this array"

To solve the error, create a copy of the array when converting it from a Pillow Image to a NumPy array.

Passing the Pillow Image to the numpy.array() method creates a copy of the array.

You can also explicitly call the copy() method.

check if writable is set to true

You can also call the copy() method on the Pillow Image and modify the copy.

The image copy isn't read-only and allows assignment.

You can change the img_copy variable without getting the "assignment destination is read-only" error.

You can also use the numpy.copy() method.

The numpy.copy() method returns an array copy of the given object.

The only argument we passed to the method is the image.

You can safely modify the img_copy variable without running into issues.

You most likely don't want to make changes to the original image.

Creating a copy and modifying the copy should be your preferred approach.

If you got the error when using the np.asarray() method, try changing it to np.array() .

Change the following:

To the following:

As long as the WRITEABLE flag is set to True , you will be able to modify the array.

Check how analogWrite is supposed to be used.

And the problem is? in hiding with the code tags?

Error: Assignment of read-only location in C

Here, we are going to learn why an Error: Assignment of read-only location in C occurs and how to fixed in C programming language? By IncludeHelp Last updated : March 10, 2024

  • Error: Assignment of read-only variable in C

Error: assignment of read-only location occurs when we try to update/modify the value of a constant, because the value of a constant cannot be changed during the program execution, so we should take care about the constants. They are read-only.

Consider this example:

Here, the statement str[0]='p' will try to change the first character of the string, thus, the "Error: assignment of read-only location" will occur.

How to fix?

Do not change the value of a constant during program execution.

    In your code you set up the parking variable with a const, this is telling the compiler that it will not be modified later.You then modify parking later by setting it to true or false. Using std::string is far more idiomatic c++ though. So I would do this instead:
