Python can’t multiply sequence by non-int of type ‘float’

Change: to: This: gives you list with one element. But this: computes the divisions before the multiplication with alpha. You can multiply a list by an integer: but not by a float: since you cannot have partial elements in a list. Parenthesis can be used for grouping in the mathematical calculations:

Insert some string into given string at given index in Python

An important point that often bites new Python programmers but the other posters haven’t made explicit is that strings in Python are immutable — you can’t ever modify them in place. You need to retrain yourself when working with strings in Python so that instead of thinking, “How can I modify this string?” instead you’re thinking “how … Read more

Bernoulli random number generator

I am asking on how the algorithm works to produce the numbers. – WhiteSolstice 35 mins ago Non-technical explanation If you pass n=1 to the Binomial distribution it is equivalent to the Bernoulli distribution. In this case the function could be thought of simulating coin flips. size=3 tells it to flip the coin three times and p=0.5 makes it a fair … Read more

Python reshape list to ndim array

You can think of reshaping that the new shape is filled row by row (last dimension varies fastest) from the flattened original list/array. An easy solution is to shape the list into a (100, 28) array and then transpose it: Update regarding the updated example:
