<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 576737 by <a href="/recipes/users/1523109/">Justin Shaw</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/mod/">mod</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/modulo/">modulo</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/number/">number</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/prime/">prime</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/theory/">theory</a>). Revision 4. </p> <p>Very rarely it is necessary to find the multiplicative inverse of a number in the ring of integers modulo p. Thie recipe handles those rare cases. That is, given x, an integer, and p the modulus, we seek a integer x^-1 such that x * x^-1 = 1 mod p. For example 38 is the inverse of 8 modulo 101 since 38 * 8 = 304 = 1 mod 101. The inverse only exists when a and p are relatively prime.</p>

Revision 2. </p> <p>This IS for the big guns as well as the amatuer...</p> <p>I am always being told that too many comments inside any code is bad and that professional coders are clever enough to work out what a program does without comments...</p> <p>So here goes! This snippet of code hits /dev/dsp in Linux and has no comments as to what it does. Make sure that /dev/dsp is available in your Linux install - if not then install oss.compat from your repository.</p> <p>It needs Python 2.6 minimum, but may well work on a much earlier version</p> <p>Don't run the code first but have a go at working out what it does and see if you are correct... ;o)</p> <p>You can email me if you think you are/were correct:- <a href="http://wisecracker_at_tesco.net" rel="nofollow">wisecracker_at_tesco.net</a></p> <p>Bear in mind I don't think this has ever been done before by hitting the /dev/dsp __directly__.</p> <p>NOTE:- NO imports are required at all!!!</p> <p>It runs for about 7 seconds before exiting...</p> <p>Another BIG PLUS for Linux.</p> <p>(I have a feeling poeple on here might like this, possibly even vote it up. ;)</p> <p>Answer now at the bottom of this page...</p> <p>Enjoy...</p> <p>Bazza, G0LCU...</p>
