We usually write programs in Python and save the file with .py extension. However, there is another file type called .pyc,  which is automatically generated by the Python interpreter while executing the source code. What is a .pyc File? When you execute a Python program, the Python interpreter doesn't directly execute the .py file; instead, it parses the source code, compiles it into bytecode(a low-level representation of the Python source code), and stores it as the .pyc file. Further, this bytecode is executed with the Python Virtual Machine (PVM). A .pyc file is usually created when a Python program is ... Read More

In this article, we'll show how to write a C++ program to copy strings. A string in C++ is a sequence of characters, such as letters, numbers, symbols, or anything enclosed in double quotes (e.g., "Hello"). Copying a string means transferring all characters from one string to another or making an exact copy. For example, here's how copying works: Input: "Learning C++ is fun!" Output: "Learning C++ is fun!" (This is the copied string) We can copy a string in C++ using the following methods: Using strcpy() Function ... Read More

In this article, we'll show you how to write a C++ program to find the factorial of a number using an iterative approach. The factorial of a number is the result of multiplying all the positive integers from 1 to that number. It is written as n! and is commonly used in mathematics and programming. Let's understand this with a few examples: //Example 1 Input: 5 The factorial of 5 is: 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120 Output: 120 //Example 2 Input: 6 The factorial of 6 is: 6 * 5 * 4 ... Read More

In this article, we'll show you how to write a C++ program to access elements of an array using pointer. A pointer is a variable that holds the memory address of another variable, allowing us to reference it directly. In other words, pointers point to a memory location and obtaining the value stored at that location is called dereferencing the pointer. By using pointers, we can access and work with array elements through their memory addresses. Let's look at a simple example: Input: An array: [10, 20, 30, 40, 50] // We'll use a pointer to access ... Read More

In this article, we will write a C++ program to reverse a sentence using recursion. Reversing a sentence means changing the order of all its characters in each word, so the first character moves to the end, the last character comes to the front, and the middle characters follow in the opposite order. Let's understand this with an example: // Example 1 Input: Welcome to tutorialspoint! // After reversing the sentence Output: !tniopslairotut ot emocleW // Example 2 Input: Learning C++ with tutorialspoint is fun // After reversing the sentence Output: nuf si tniopslairotut htiw ++C gninraeL ...

An armstrong number is a positive integer that is equal to the sum of its digits, each raised to the power of the total number of digits in the number. Our goal here is to check armstrong numbers in C++. In simple terms, for a number with n digits: abcd... = a^n + b^n + c^n + d^n + ... If this condition is satisfied, we can say the number is an armstrong number. Let's understand with examples: 153 is an Armstrong number because: 1^3 + 5^3 + 3^3 = 1 + 125 + 27 = 153 ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to display all the prime numbers from 1 to N in Java. All possible positive numbers from 1 to infinity are called natural numbers. A number is a prime number if its only factors are 1 and itself and cannot be divided by any other number. 11 is a prime number. Its factors are 1 and 11 itself. Some examples of prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and so on. 2 is the only even prime number. All other prime numbers are odd numbers. Below is a demonstration of the ... Read More

A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns. To add two matrices, they must be the same size. We add each number in the first matrix to the number in the same position in the second matrix to get a new matrix An example of the addition of two matrices is as follow: Adding Two Matrices Using Multidimensional Arrays To add two matrices in C++, we use multidimensional arrays. These arrays help us store matrix values in rows and columns, just like a real matrix. Then, we add the two matrices stored ... Read More

Nested Character Class Subtraction in Python

Nested character class subtraction in Python's regular expressions allows us to define complex character sets by removing characters from an existing character class, including another character class by using the '-' operator. It works from the innermost to outermost character class, and subtractions are evaluated from left to right within the square brackets [ ]. Usually, Python's library, re, doesn't directly support nested character class subtraction like some other regex engines do. We can't write something like [[abc]-[bc]], which means characters a, b, or c, excluding b or c. So we need to install a third-party module like regex ... Read More

Negated Character Classes in Python Regular Expressions

 While working with Python regex,  if we want to match everything except certain characters, then we can use negated character classes by placing a caret (^) as the first character inside square brackets. The pattern [^abdfgh] will match any character not in that set. What is a Negated Character Class? A character class like [abc] matches any single character except 'a', 'b', or 'c'. But if we use a ^ symbol at the beginning, like [abc], it will match any character except 'a', 'b', or 'c'. This allows us to eliminate certain characters from the match quickly. The position of ...
