EulerLib

eulerlib is a library of recreational mathematics and number theory related functions inspired by Project Euler. Available functions include:

• Prime number generation
• Divisor functions (sigma functions)
• Euler's totient function
• Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) using Euclid's algorithm
• Least Common Multiple (LCM)
• Integer square root
• Fibonacci numbers
• Pandigital numbers
• Palindrome numbers
• Pythagorean triples

Functions from this library can be used to solve recreational mathematics and programming problems such as problems in Project Euler.

Installation

eulerlib is avalaible through Python Package Index (PyPI) using pip.

>>> pip install --upgrade eulerlib

To uninstall using pip.

>>> pip uninstall eulerlib

Usage

In Python console you can import functions/classes from eulerlib as needed.

>>> from eulerlib import primes
>>> p10 = primes(10)
>>> print(p10)
[2, 3, 5, 7]

The Divisors class implements functions related to prime factorization, sigma functions etc.

>>> from eulerlib import Divisors
>>> mydiv = Divisors(10000)
>>> div84 = mydiv.divisors(84) #divisors of 84
>>> print(div84)
[1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84]
>>> pf840 = mydiv.prime_factors(840) # prime factors of 840
>>> print(pf840)
[(2, 3), (3, 1), (5, 1), (7, 1)]

Example: Solved Project Euler problem 3.

from eulerlib import is_square, primes
#get approximate square root of number since
#largest prime factor < sq. root
(is_sq, sqroot) = is_square(600851475143L)
#get a list of primes less than the approx. square root.
test_primes = primes(sqroot + 1L)
#test the primes from the list to find the largest factor
len_p = len(test_primes)
for i in range(1,len_p+1):
    j = 0 - i
    test_fact = test_primes[j]
    if 600851475143L%test_fact == 0:
        break
answer = test_fact #Set the answer
