Simple way to find number of perfect square numbers in a range. (Python)

Python recipe 579031 by alexander baker (complex, fun, interview, maths, range).

The strategy here is not to iterate through the set of possible integer values and check for is_perfect_square() each time but to translate the upper and lower values to either complex or real space of square numbers.

    # O(n) complexity
    len([x for x in range(0, 100) if x!= 0 and float(math.sqrt(x)).is_integer()])

    so if a and b positive then we count the number of integer values between upper and lower sqrt() values
    if either a or b are negative then we need to use the complex number space for the sqrt() results. In this case
    we are still counting integer values either along the imaginary or real axis, the result is then a simple sum
    if both a and b are negative we need to make sure that when walking down the same imaginary axis we dont count
    the same inteters twice, in this case we can take the min(a,b) to get max distinct set of integer values.

Numbers as Ranges - iterable integers (C++)

2014-10-02T12:13:52-07:00

C++ recipe 578945 by elazar (iterable, range). Revision 2.

This header file makes simple integers iterable. Note that it works only on C++11 or above.

Usage:

#include "num_range.h"
for (int i : 3) cout << i << endl;

Output: 0 1 2

Implementation note: This code is far too generic. We only need DerefableInt. The templates are there for no practical reason.

Cons: pollutes namespace std; nonstandard idiom;

Generate List of Numbers from Hyphenated and comma separeted string like "1-5,25-30,4,5" (Python)

2010-07-01T02:08:09-07:00

Python recipe 577279 by Siddhant Sanyam (hypen, list, range).

This function takes a range in form of "a-b" and generate a list of numbers between a and b inclusive. Also accepts comma separated ranges like "a-b,c-d,f" will build a list which will include numbers from a to b, a to d and f Example: hyphen_range('54-78') hyphen_range('57-78,454,45,1-10') hyphen_range('94-100,1052,2-50')

Reversed Ranges (Python)

2014-03-29T12:43:26-07:00

Python recipe 576801 by Tal Einat (iteration, range, reverse). Revision 16.

A simple function for efficiently iterating over ranges in reverse.

This is equivalent to reversed(range(...)) but somewhat more efficient.
