I started printing a pyramid to start...
Here's what I made so far:`
num = int(input("Enter the Number: "))
for i in range(1, num+1):
for j in range(0, i):
print(" ", end="")
for j in range(1, (num*2 - (2*i - 1))+1):
if i == 1 or j == 1 or j ==(num*2 -(2*i-1)):
print("*", end="")
else:
print(" ", end="")
print()
This is what the output should look like...

Here a simple solution.
def large_a(height):
rows = ["*"] + ["*" + " " * (2 * i + 1) + "*" for i in range(height - 1)]
middle = len(rows) // 2
rows[middle] = rows[middle].replace(" ", "*")
return "\n".join(f"{r:^{height * 2}}" for r in rows)
print(large_a(8))
*
* *
* *
* *

print(large_a(15))

Looping through equations

Is there a way to loop through these calculations and input them into a dataframe as the indicated variable instead of having to calculate them individually. I know repetition is a no-no, but I am not sure how else to do this.
The values of P are constants for different minerals (e.g., P_Cpx, P_Pl) and the D values are constants for different elements and the corresponding mineral (e.g., D_Nb_Cpx).
D_Th_bulk = (P_Cpx * D_Th_Cpx) + (P_Pl * D_Th_Pl) + (P_Opx * D_Th_Opx) + (P_Ol * D_Th_Ol) + (P_Mt * D_Th_Mt) + (P_Ilm * D_Th_Ilm) + (P_Ap * D_Th_Ap) + (P_Chr * D_Th_Chr) + (P_Maj_gn * D_Th_Maj_gn) + (P_Amp * D_Th_Amp)
D_Nb_bulk = (P_Cpx * D_Nb_Cpx) + (P_Pl * D_Nb_Pl) + (P_Opx * D_Nb_Opx) + (P_Ol * D_Nb_Ol) + (P_Mt * D_Nb_Mt) + (P_Ilm * D_Nb_Ilm) + (P_Ap * D_Nb_Ap) + (P_Chr * D_Nb_Chr) + (P_Maj_gn * D_Nb_Maj_gn) + (P_Amp * D_Nb_Amp)
D_La_bulk = (P_Cpx * D_La_Cpx) + (P_Pl * D_La_Pl) + (P_Opx * D_La_Opx) + (P_Ol * D_La_Ol) + (P_Mt * D_La_Mt) + (P_Ilm * D_La_Ilm) + (P_Ap * D_La_Ap) + (P_Chr * D_La_Chr) + (P_Maj_gn * D_La_Maj_gn) + (P_Amp * D_La_Amp)
D_Ce_bulk = (P_Cpx * D_Ce_Cpx) + (P_Pl * D_Ce_Pl) + (P_Opx * D_Ce_Opx) + (P_Ol * D_Ce_Ol) + (P_Mt * D_Ce_Mt) + (P_Ilm * D_Ce_Ilm) + (P_Ap * D_Ce_Ap) + (P_Chr * D_Ce_Chr) + (P_Maj_gn * D_Ce_Maj_gn) + (P_Amp * D_Ce_Amp)
Thank you in advance.

I am working on a project which needs to make a minigame. The player will need to input a map.
Something like this:
* * * * * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * * * * *
* * * * * b - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - b * * * * *
* * * * * - * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - * * - - - - * * * * * - - - - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - * * - y y - * * * * * - y y - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - * * - - - - * * * * * - - - - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - * * * * * * - - b - - * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * - * * * * *
# - - - - - * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * p - - - - t
* * * * * - * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - - - - - - - - * * * - - - - - - - - * * * * *

I struggling in a function to determine whether the map is solvable or not.
In the code, current means the current location the program is trying. len is the length of the String holding the map. n is the length of one line of the map. In the map, # means the ball. - means roads that the ball can move on. b means bonus block (not related to this problem). * means obstacle. t means target p/o/y means blocks with special use (ball can stop there). My current approach is to use a function try to try recursively. The function will turn roads that have already tried into x and the function will return False if it hit x. When function hits obstacles (*) or boundaries of map it will try another two directions. Eg. if you are currently moving Up. Then it will try Leftx and Rightx. If it hits special blocks (p/o/y), it will try the other three directions. Eg. if you are currently moving Rightx, then it will try Up, Down, and Rightx. However, the program returns "Exception: stack overflow". Is it something wrong with my algorithm? How can I fix this?
The problem is that once your search has proceeded all the way right and up, so the map looks like this, with the current position the leftmost - in the first row:
* * * * * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * * * * *
* * * * * x - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - b * * * * *
* * * * * x * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * x * * - - - - * * * * * - - - - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * x * * - y y - * * * * * - y y - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * x * * - - - - * * * * * - - - - * * - * * * * *
* * * * * x * * * * * * - - b - - * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * x * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * - * * * * *
x x x x x x * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * p - - - - t
* * * * * - * * * * * * - * * * - * * * * * * - * * * * *
* * * * * - - - - - - - - * * * - - - - - - - - * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
you enter the following loop with no further x marks made to the map:
try map 10 Up ... =
-- at top row, so we evaluate:
(try map current Leftx len n) || ...
try map 10 Leftx ... =
-- star to the left, so we evaluate:
(try map current Up len n) || ...
try map 10 Up ... =
-- at top row, so we evaluate:
(try map current Leftx len n) || ...
-- and we're stuck in an infinite loop
The stack eventually overflows because Haskell is keeping track of all those right-hand sides of the || operator, though it never gets a chance to try any of them.
I think you'll need to either modify your algorithm to mark walls you've already tried, or maybe switch from working with a single path to flood filling all the non-stars -- if you hit the target while flood fillling, the maze is solvable.

Code takes forever to come up with a solution

What I basically want, is comparing a timevalue (t1 and tuit)(in hours) to determine which method to use to calculate 'S' and 'k' in a function called 'stijghoogteverlaging'. Then a fitted curve can be made with those values.
I tried multiple things, like putting 'return s' underneath both s-methods.
if t1[i] < tuit:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))
return s
else:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * ((exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))) - (exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * (t - tuit)))))
return s
But then I got a wrong fitted curve as can be seen in the image below.
Now I tried putting only one 'return s', but then it takes forever to calculate and I have to interrupt the kernel.
data = read_csv("pompproef_data.csv", sep = ';')
pb1 = data.iloc[1:,1].values-1.87
pb2 = data.iloc[1:,2].values-1.86
t1 = data.iloc[1:,0].values / (60*24)
volume = 10/1000 #m3
duur = [128,136, 150, 137, 143, 141] #seconden
totaal = np.sum(duur)
debiet = (((len(duur) * volume)/totaal)) * (60*60*24) #m3/d
print(debiet)
print(t1)
print(pb1)
tuit = 15/(24*60)
D = 2.0
Q = debiet
def stijghoogteverlaging(t, k, S):
for i in range(len(t1)):
if t1[i] < tuit:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))
else:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * ((exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))) - (exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * (t - tuit)))))
return s
r = 4.0 #afstand peilbuis1 tot put
poptpb1, pcovpb1 = curve_fit(stijghoogteverlaging, t1, pb1, p0=[100, 1e-25], maxfev = 10000000)
print('optimale waarde van k voor peilbuis1:', poptpb1[0])
print('optimale waarde van S voor peilbuis1:', poptpb1[1])
tijd = data.iloc[1:,0].values
t = np.linspace(0.00069*(24*60), 0.021*(24*60), 1000)
s1 = stijghoogteverlaging(t, poptpb1[0], poptpb1[1])
plt.plot(tijd, pb1, 'r.', label = 'Gemeten bij 4 meter')
plt.plot(t, s1, 'b', label = 'fitted bij 4 m')
Does anyone have a solution?
Used values for t1 and pb1:
Plot with a wrong fitted curve(time in minutes).
The function stijghoogteverlaging is performing a nonsense operation over and over:
def stijghoogteverlaging(t, k, S):
for i in range(len(t1)):
if t1[i] < tuit:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))
else:
s = Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * ((exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))) - (exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * (t - tuit)))))
return s
You are iterating len(t1) times, and at each iteration, you are computing the full vectorized value of s each and every time. That means that you are computing len(t)**2 values per call, and using a Python for loop as your outer loop to do it. As a minor point, you are accessing the x-data as the global variable t1 instead of the local value t, which gets passed in.
Your function should probably look more like this:
def stijghoogteverlaging(t, k, S):
return np.where(t < tuit,
Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t)),
Q / (4 * np.pi * k * D) * ((exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * t))) - (exp1(S * r**2 / (4 * k * D * (t - tuit)))))
)
This computes len(t) * 2 values per call, not len(t)**2, and selects a value from the appropriate result for each value of t.

working with recursion in python 3.x

here is my code
def printTriangleRecursive(width):
# Recursive implementation
if width > 1:
printTriangleRecursive(width - 1)
print ("*" * width, end=" ")
Am suppose to get this using recursion
*
* *
* * *
* * * *
* * * * *
but am getting a different staff
By default, print will issue a newline after printing the text. But with
end=" "
you are overriding that behavior and telling it to print a space instead of a newline.
To fix, just delete that
def printTriangleRecursive(width):
# Recursive implementation
if width > 1:
printTriangleRecursive(width - 1)
print ("*" * width)

how to print FlippedTriangle pattern using python

Here is my code but it is not working as expected
def printFlippedTriangle(width):
for i in range(0, width):
for J in range(0, width-i):
print(" ", end=" ") # single line
for j in range(0,i):
print(" "+"* ", end=" ") # single line
j=j-1
print("*")
Am getting this:
*
* * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * *
am suppose to get:
*
* *
* * *
* * * *
* * * * *
Any idea and or suggestion will be appreciated
This will get the job done, and in a single loop too!
def triangle(w):
for i in range(0, w):
print(' ' * ((w - i - 1) * 2), end='') # spaces for each row
print('* ' * (i + 1), end='') # * for each row
print() # new line
>>> triangle(5)
*
* *
* * *
* * * *
* * * * *
Each row needs width - rowNumber - 1 spaces and rowNumber + 1 asterisks when starting from 0
