PythoC lets you use Python as a C code generator, but with more features and flexibility than Cython provides. Here’s a first look at the new C code generator for Python. Python and C share more than ...

Adding numbers to your passwords makes them more secure. In fact, most sites and services these days require alphanumeric passwords at the very least. Some people ...

Whether you’re solving geometry problems, handling scientific computations, or processing data arrays, calculating square roots in Python is a fundamental task. Python offers multiple approaches for ...

We currently generate random array data with numpy which means we cannot test for cases where numpy is not present. We want a random array generator depending only on pyarrow and Python standard ...

The Earth is awash in data about itself. Every day, satellites capture around 100 terabytes of imagery. But making sense of it isn’t always easy. Seemingly simple questions can be fiendishly complex ...

Running Python scripts is one of the most common tasks in automation. However, managing dependencies across different systems can be challenging. That’s where Docker comes in. Docker lets you package ...

The outcome of quantum experiments is intrinsically unpredictable. Now physicists have combined that feature with blockchain techniques to generate random numbers in a fully transparent process for ...

The classification models built on class imbalanced data sets tend to prioritize the accuracy of the majority class, and thus, the minority class generally has a higher misclassification rate.

A team that included researchers at a US bank says it has created a protocol that can generate certified truly random numbers, opening the possibility that current generation quantum computers can be ...
