Is there a math nCr function in python? [duplicate]
The following program calculates nCr in an efficient manner (compared to calculating factorials etc.) As of Python 3.8, binomial coefficients are available in the standard library as math.comb:

How is Python’s List Implemented?
It’s a dynamic array. Practical proof: Indexing takes (of course with extremely small differences (0.0013 µsecs!)) the same time regardless of index: I would be astounded if IronPython or Jython used linked lists – they would ruin the performance of many many widely-used libraries built on the assumption that lists are dynamic arrays
how to build .exe for python 3.5+, 3.6 if possible?
Pyinstaller Works with Python 3.5 and it is working even for packages like tensor-flow, scipy , etc (The packages I worked with) then go the C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Scripts and run the command –onefile : is for compressing the build and get a single file as output
Circular list iterator in Python
Use itertools.cycle, that’s its exact purpose: Output: (Loops forever, obviously) In order to manually advance the iterator and pull values from it one by one, simply call next(pool):
Running bash script from within python
Making sleep.sh executable and adding shell=True to the parameter list (as suggested in previous answers) works ok. Depending on the search path, you may also need to add ./ or some other appropriate path. (Ie, change “sleep.sh” to “./sleep.sh”.) The shell=True parameter is not needed (under a Posix system like Linux) if the first line … Read more
Text progress bar in terminal with block characters
I wrote a simple console app to upload and download files from an FTP server using the ftplib. I would like the app to show some visualization of its download/upload progress for the user; each time a data chunk is downloaded, I would like it to provide a progress update, even if it’s just a … Read more
UnicodeDecodeError, invalid continuation byte
In binary, 0xE9 looks like 1110 1001. If you read about UTF-8 on Wikipedia, you’ll see that such a byte must be followed by two of the form 10xx xxxx. So, for example: But that’s just the mechanical cause of the exception. In this case, you have a string that is almost certainly encoded in … Read more
What do I use for a max-heap implementation in Python?
Python includes the heapq module for min-heaps, but I need a max heap. What should I use for a max-heap implementation in Python?
What is the correct format to write float value to file in Python
the way you are writing to the file looks like you are giving two arguments to write function. So you need to only pass one argument. try converting x1 and x2 into string and then write to the file.
Releasing memory in Python
Memory allocated on the heap can be subject to high-water marks. This is complicated by Python’s internal optimizations for allocating small objects (PyObject_Malloc) in 4 KiB pools, classed for allocation sizes at multiples of 8 bytes — up to 256 bytes (512 bytes in 3.3). The pools themselves are in 256 KiB arenas, so if … Read more
