Right now we’re in the middle of the design of our blog, as well as the creation of a sandbox area to show off and demonstrate code . Unfortunately that means in the interim the site may seem a bit buggy from time to time, or just not seem fully flushed out, but fear not it will [...]
This weeks covering of the Euler Project: Problem 10 Asks us to simply: Find the sum of all primes below 2 million. Were going to take almost the entire solution for this from our solution to problem 7, where we start out with a generator function to produce our prime numbers, and then use a [...]
The Euler Project has been a fun way to examine how well we know our programming language of choice. Today we’re covering problem 9 which reads as follows: A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, a < b < c, for which, a^2 + b^2 = c^2 For example, 3^2 + 4^2 [...]
Hello and welcome to our discussion on Euler Project Problem 8. Problem 8 asks us to find the greatest product of five consecutive digits in the 1000-digit number below: 7316717653133062491922511967442657474235534919493 4969835203127745063262395783180169848018694788518 4385861560789112949495459501737958331952853208805 5111254069874715852386305071569329096329522744304 3557668966489504452445231617318564030987111217223 8311362229893423380308135336276614282806444486645 2387493035890729629049156044077239071381051585930 7960866701724271218839987979087922749219016997208 8809377665727333001053367881220235421809751254540 5947522435258490771167055601360483958644670632441 5722155397536978179778461740649551492908625693219 7846862248283972241375657056057490261407972968652 4145351004748216637048440319989000889524345065854 1227588666881164271714799244429282308634656748139 1912316282458617866458359124566529476545682848912 8831426076900422421902267105562632111110937054421 7506941658960408071984038509624554443629812309878 7992724428490918884580156166097919133875499200524 0636899125607176060588611646710940507754100225698 3155200055935729725716362695618826704282524836008 23257530420752963450 Simple enough, were just gonna [...]
Creating a remote weather sensor is incredibly easy using an Arduino micro-controller, a wifi ‘shield’, and an SHT15 sensor. The SHT15 and breakout board are available from Sparkfun for around $40 USD. The WiShield is produced by Asynclabs and currently on version 2.0. The WiShield hooks onto the Arduino and allows for communication over wifi, [...]
Welcome to this installment of the Euler Project in python. Today we cover problem 7 which asks this question: By listing the first six prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13, we can see that the 6th prime is 13. What is the 10,001st prime number? For this one we’ll create a prime [...]
A friend of mine I worked with back in Baltimore recently got a great write up from John’s Hopkins on his financially sustainable robot which converts newspaper articles, photos and any other paper based media into searchable, online data available to all. However what I find most important about this creation is that many smaller agencies such [...]
Chris has been looking into the Euler Project a bit, from a python perspective, so I thought I’d share some of my equations from a PHP angle, here we go. Euler Project: Problem 1 reads as follows: If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5, we get 3, [...]
That’s right Stanford University is offering a free distributed learning class on artificial intelligence this fall. Check it out here. It’s based on the Stanford CS221 AI class, but offered through video lecture and forum discussion. There are two choices in terms of level of class, basic and advanced. The advanced version has you turn [...]
Today’s coverage of the Euler Project looks at problem 6. This is a simple and sweet solution, meaning a short post, meaning less of that magical insight that we strive so hard to provide. Problem 6 of Euler Project asks the following: The sum of the squares of the first ten natural numbers is: 12 [...]
