Introduction In this tutorial, the task is to use queries to search for an element in an array. It is to push to the front after every query in C++. To implement this task, it takes an array A with elements from 1 to 5 and a query array Q for finding the element in A and moving it to the front of the array. The output is the index number of the searched elements. We use two methods for moving array elements to the front as per the query array. Naive Approach − Iterate through the array of ... Read More

Introduction In this tutorial, we will learn about the istringstream and how to use it for processing strings. istringstream is an object of string class defined in the header file. It is used for reading from the stream strings. A stream is a flow of data (collection of characters) between input-output devices and programs. The header file defines 3 string class objects, which are as follows − istringstream ostringstream Stringstream All are used for separate operations, like istringstream is responsible for stream input, ostringstream is for stream output, and stringstream handles both input and output of ...

Entropy is a property of a thermodynamic system that remains constant during a reversible adiabatic process. Moreover, we can also say that it is the degree of randomness or disorder in the system. If a system exchanges dQ heat from its surroundings at temperature T, then the chance in the entropy can be written as − $$\mathrm{ds \: = \: \frac{dQ}{T} \dotso \dotso \: (1)}$$ According to Clausius' inequality the cyclic integral of $\mathrm{\frac{dQ}{T}}$ along a reversible path is either less or equal to zero. Mathematically, it can be written as − $$\mathrm{\oint\frac{dQ}{T} \: \leq \: 0\dotso \dotso \: (2)}$$ ... Read More

The purpose of integration (definite) is to calculate the area under a curve of a function between two limits, a and b. The plot shown below will clear this concept further. Quadrature, which is also commonly called as numerical integration, is a method for evaluating the area under the curve of a given function. The process is very simple i.e. first we dividing the bounded area into several regions or strips. Thereafter, the areas is evaluated with the help of mathematical formula of simple rectangle. Then the area of all strips is added to obtain the gross area under ... Read More

Stirling Cycle Four processes—two reversible isochoric and two reversible isothermal—make up the Stirling cycle. In the same temperature range, the efficiency of the ideal regenerative Stirling cycle is equivalent to that of the Carnot cycle. Heat interaction takes place throughout the cycle, whereas work interaction only happens in processes 1-2 and 3–4. The figure shown below displays the cycle's schematic. Maximum pressure $\mathrm{(p_{max})}$, minimum pressure $\mathrm{(p_{min})}$, maximum volume $\mathrm{(v_{max})}$, compression ratio (r), and adiabatic exponent $\mathrm{(\gamma)}$ are the input variables taken into consideration when modelling the cycle. The following list includes the thermodynamic calculations of several processes involved in ... Read More

In this article we will learn about different methods to find the Summation of Random Numbers using Python language. In some scenarios we need to generate some random number and find its summation so we will see basic to improved versions of functions using which we can get this task done. Let’s see some methods to find the summation of random numbers. Method 1. Using Simple Loop Example import random n = 10 rand_nums = [] for _ in range(n): rand_nums.append(random.randint(1, 100)) total = sum(rand_nums) print("Random Numbers:", rand_nums) print("Summation of random numbers:", total) Output Random Numbers: ...

In this article we will learn about Queue.LIFOQueue vs Collections.Deque in Python programming language. When we need to manage our data using the last in first out method then we can use these data structures. But to choose one of them we need to know about their functionalities and characteristics. Before that let’s get to know about Queue.LIFOQueue and Collections.Deque. LIFOQueue This class is part of the queue module. It works as stack data structure and it is considered as thread safe means we can talk between the different threads at the same time. Here are some specifications of ... Read More

Otto Cycle An air standard cycle called the Otto Cycle is employed in spark ignition (SI) engines. It comprises of two reversible adiabatic processes and two isochoric processes (constant volume), totaling four processes. When the work interactions take place in reversible adiabatic processes, the heat addition (2-3) and rejection (4-1) occur isochorically (3-4 and 1-2). The Otto cycle's schematic is shown in Figure given below. To model the cycle in Python, the input variables considered are maximum pressure $\mathrm{(P_{max})}$, minimum pressure $\mathrm{(P_{min})}$, maximum volume $\mathrm{(V_{max})}$, compression ratio (r), and adiabatic exponent $\mathrm{(\gamma)}$. Table 2 explains the thermodynamic computations of ... Read More

In this article we will get to know how we can replace sublist value with new list. You may have faced this problem while working with manipulation of list. Here we will see various methods using which we can replace the sublist with other list. Let’s get to know this using below example − listItem = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] new_list = [7, 8, 9] Here we have list named as listItem which contains some elements and we have another list named as new_list. So, we want to replace the sublist of listItem with new_list. Take ... Read More

In this article we will learn how we can replace rear (word at the end of the string) word with any other given word. You may have seen this problem while doing manipulation of string. Here we will see various methods for replacing the rear word in string with given word. Let’s get to know this using below example − string_txt = "This cat is running very Fast" Here we have a string string_txt which contains sentences and we want to replace the last word which is "Fast" into "Slow" so that the resulting string will be like. ...
