Euler PROJECT solutions
If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5, we get 3, 5, 6 and 9. The sum of these multiples is 23. Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000.
# OR is short circuiting, putting n % 3 before n % 5 can already
# greatly reduce the number of calls
# Using directly a generator instead of list comprehension is always a good thing
return sum(n for n in xrange(1000) if (n % 3 == 0 or n % 5 == 0))
# Find the sum of all the even-valued terms in the Fibonacci sequence which do not exceed four million.
# need a dynamic programming approach, using only one two cells array

A common security method used for online banking is to ask the user for three random characters from a passcode. For example, if the passcode was 531278, they may asked for the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th characters; the expected reply would be: 317.
The text file, keylog.txt, contains fifty successful login attempts.
Given that the three characters are always asked for in order, analyse the file so as to determine the shortest possible secret passcode of unknown length.
