Problem 2 Project Euler solution with Python

Even fibonacci numbers

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ...
By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four million, find the sum of the even-valued terms.

 If you have seen the code we have written two programs even if we wanted only one solution. The first program corresponds to the solution for the example problem given in the question and the second program refers to the problem for which we will have to find the solution. I have neatly commented the code and I think it is pretty easy to understand.

If you want to download code, you can get it from github - pep2.py

Output



I have made every effort to write this program so that it will execute in a short time and also keeping in mind, people who are new to  programming. I think every part in this post is easy to understand. But if you have any doubt or didn't understand anything then please do comment in the comment box below. I will be glad to help you. You can also contact me if you want to.

 Please don't hesitate to comment or contact me if you want me to add any part or if I have made any typo in this post.

 Thank you. Have good luck. 😀

Project Euler Problem 67 Solution with Python

Maximum path sum II By starting at the top of the triangle below and moving to adjacent numbers on the row below, the maximum total from top to bottom is 23. 3 7 4 2 4 6 8 5 9 3 That is, 3 + 7 + 4 + 9 = 23. Find the maximum total from top to bottom in triangle.txt (right click and 'Save Link/Target As...'), a 15K text file containing a triangle with one-hundred rows.

Problem 43 Project Euler Solution with python

Sub-string divisibility The number, 1406357289, is a 0 to 9 pandigital number because it is made up of each of the digits 0 to 9 in some order, but it also has a rather interesting sub-string divisibility property. Let d 1 be the 1 st digit, d 2 be the 2 nd digit, and so on. In this way, we note the following: d 2 d 3 d 4 =406 is divisible by 2 d 3 d 4 d 5 =063 is divisible by 3 d 4 d 5 d 6 =635 is divisible by 5 d 5 d 6 d 7 =357 is divisible by 7 d 6 d 7 d 8 =572 is divisible by 11 d 7 d 8 d 9 =728 is divisible by 13 d 8 d 9 d 10 =289 is divisible by 17 Find the sum of all 0 to 9 pandigital numbers with this property. One might write a simple solution using direct if else statements for this problem. Using if else statements, the execution time may be a few seconds. But this is not a very good approach. I too had written a program with if else statement which will take each and every permutation of the 0-9 Pandigital and check for the conditions given in the qu...

Add/Embed SVG to Blogger website

In this post I will tell you my method(trick) of adding SVG images in a blogger website or blog. Before starting , the first thin g I am assu m ing is that you are aware of SVG if you are here. If not please see S calable V ec tor G raphics Recently when I tried to embed a SVG image for a post on pygal, I tried uploading the SVG file and blogger Image uploader came up with an error, because of which I had to find some other way.  SVG File upload Error in Blogger  I started sea rc hing Google " Embed SVG in Blogger " . I found blogorrhea , w h ich gave some i nformatio n on add ing SVG directly as a markup , which worked , but I faced another problem using this . Also th is guy has used lot of Javascript which was confusin g for me, being new to using SVG.   So I first t houg ht of learning on h ow to embed SVG in HTML and t his on e worked out. Actually we can embed SVG in HTML i n following ways: Using Object tag Using Iframe tag Using embed...
