I want to solve the following for \$x\$ (in Python):
\$x^{101} = 8765 \ (\mod{9691573})\$
I coded this:
n = 8765
power = 101
mod = 9691573
x = 0
while x < mod:
if (x ** power) % mod == n:
break
x += 1
print x
This is basically the "brute force" approach.
What is the most e...
I'm writing a program that makes heavy use of std::bitset's and occasionally needs to read/write these to file. std::bitset does overload the << & >> operators, but using these will result in an ASCII encoded file (i.e. {0,1} = 1 byte), which is ~8x bigger than it would be if using a bit-for-bit ...

I have a software program that outputs HTML and data values for invoices, emails etc. The problem is editing the output is really cumbersome. Can someone recommend an application that would "read" a doc file or rtf and create corresponding HTML and CSS as a jumping off point.
In the Lua library I'm developing I was originally exporting everything inside a global variable.
Inside the include file (init.lua) I had:
lib = {}
lib.class = require "class"
lib.ClassA = require "class-a"
lib.ClassB = require "class-b"
-- ... --
inside the other source files (for example, ...
void strdev (char *str, long from, long to)
{
char *part1 = malloc(strlen(str) - strlen(&str[from]));
long i;
part1[from] = '\0';
for(i=0; i<from; i++) part1[i] = str[i];
sprintf(str, "%s%s", part1, &str[to+1]);
free(part1);
}
Any other more exotic way ..or that one is...
Here is Alarm Service for setting up notifications on my phone. Currently, the code works and is functional. However, I noticed my code looks different than a few examples I found online. I was wondering if I should be using Notification Compact builder instead?
Also, any advice on how to make ...
I was fooling around with some maths and realized that I could use a parabola to represent a bouncing ball. So, naturally, I decided to make it in code.
var Ball = function(r, v, a, y, x) {
this.r = r;
this.v = v;
this.a = a;
this.y = y;
this.x = x;
};
Ball.prototype.draw = ...
A few notes:
I think the basic concept of what you are trying to do is remove a substring from a string. My confusion comes in as to why we have a function prototype such as yours rather than this:
void removeSubstring(char *str, const char *toRemove)
This in my opinion is easier to operate...
As I wrote on SO, I need an ArrayList-like structure allowing just the following operations
get(int index)
add(E element)
set(int index, E element)
iterator()
while supporting iterations concurrent with modifications. While I'm waiting for something better, I tried it myself. It was a bit har...
