The most recent version of this guidebook (which I didn't know existed until now) is at: https://flagship.kip.uni-heidelberg.de/jss/FileExchange/HBPNeuromorphicComputingPlatformGuidebook.pdf?fID=1504&s=qqdXDg6HuX3&uID=65 and it still contains the same script.
The reason this is not working on SpiNNaker is because pyNN.spiNNaker now uses PyNN version 0.8 and this script was written for PyNN version 0.7. I will look into getting this updated in the documentation (I believe Heidelberg maintain the guidebook, so I'll have to communicate with them); in the meantime, if you'd like a working version of this script with the latest SpiNNaker software then reply to this thread and let us know.
oops. we kinda support our side of that workbook. Id completely forgotten it exists. I did at one point have its repos on my machine, but that's the desktop, not the laptop. I have no idea how to get access to it anymore. Will explore when bandwidth is less stressed.
I've got access to the repository now, so I've made a start to the required changes. https://github.com/electronicvisions/hbp-sp9-guidebook/pull/14
yey. thanks old boy
can be closed as functionality now fixed in master. still note that using the collab will need to be updated to either use master or wait til the next release cycle, where the portal will be updated

There is this example code:
The code fails, because
tset
is no longer a method of theinputs
object.Executing:
Shows
inputs
has aset
method, but notset
,set
cannot be substituted in the place oftset
however, as it does something else. There is also a small issue with unbalanced string comments in that example:I found that the code from this article runs okay however:
An implementation of benchmarks 1 and 2 from Brette et al. (2007) Journal of Computational Neuroscience 23: 349-398 Andrew Davison, UNIC, CNRS
Also please don't hesitate to direct me to a more documentation focused place to raise this GH issue.
