Problem 52 Project Euler Solution with python

Permuted multiples

It can be seen that the number, 125874, and its double, 251748, contain exactly the same digits, but in a different order.
Find the smallest positive integer, x, such that 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 6x, contain the same digits.

This problem is straight forward and there is no big algorithm that I have used. I have used a series of if statements to get the solution. The only thing I want to mention is that, we will start with checking if all the digits of the multiple of 6(i*6) are present in the given number(i). Then 5(i*5), 4(i*4), 3(i*3), 2(i*2). Using 6 will reduce the number of iterations and thus reduces the execution time.

I will not explain the program, I have left that part for you to understand because it is not very complicated. Remember that I have added the links to the inbuilt functions used in the program.

Program

File: pep52.py -------------- # http://radiusofcircle.blogspot.com # time module for calculating execution time import time # time at the start of program execution start = time.time() # while loop iterator i = 1 # while loop while True: if set(str(i)) == set(str(6*i)): if set(str(i)) == set(str(5*i)): if set(str(i)) == set(str(4*i)): if set(str(i)) == set(str(3*i)): if set(str(i)) == set(str(2*i)): print i break i += 1 # time at the end of program execution end = time.time() # total time for program execution print end - start

Output

Summary

I think this problem has been designed to make us use the while loop. This is a very basic problem. You can also find a solution in mathematical point of view, to improve the performance of the code. Anyways I have used a direct and simple approach to solve this problem and also the execution time is pretty satisfactory.

As always you can comment in the comment box below, if you have any doubt or haven't understood anything. I will be very happy to help you.

Please do comment in the comment box below if you have found any typo or have a better program or have a different solution or have a suggestion. I will be glad to see each of them.

Thank you. Have a nice day😃!

Problem 60 Project Euler Solution with python

Prime pair sets The primes 3, 7, 109, and 673, are quite remarkable. By taking any two primes and concatenating them in any order the result will always be prime. For example, taking 7 and 109, both 7109 and 1097 are prime. The sum of these four primes, 792, represents the lowest sum for a set of four primes with this property. Find the lowest sum for a set of five primes for which any two primes concatenate to produce another prime. This problem is j u st a brute force problem. If you have come here because you don't know the limit upto which you will h ave to gener ate the prime numbers t hen go ahe ad and t r y with 10,000 . When I first start ed solving the problem I chose 1 million(beca use most of the problem s on project E uler have this limit ), but it took very long for the computer to fin d the solution. After searching on the internet then I found many people choosing 10, 000 so I have changed my in put f rom 1 million to 10000 and the output was f ast. He

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 tag Us

Making a quiz web app with python and flask

Edit : When you are creating a web app with h tml templates, then y ou will have to sa ve the html file in templates folder in the Current Wor ki ng Directory( CWD). If you save the file in the C W D directl y you will get a TemplateNotFound error. Thank you Udhay for pointing it out. In this post we will create a quiz website using python . I will be using the flask framework . After reading this tutorial you will learn form submission , flask templates , python code in flask templates , shuffling the questions and options with the random module and few others. Please note that this tutorial is not big as it seems to be. Some of the code has been rewritten to maintain consistency and also font size is somewhat big so that your eyes won't get stressed reading this tutorial. Also the content has not occupied the full width of the page. In this tutorial I am assuming that you are having a very basic understanding of the flask framework . Please refer the documentation
