How to Build a Pipe and Filter Text Processing Chain in Python

A functional pipe-and-filter chain that transforms text through uppercase, whitespace normalization, number removal, stopword filtering, and file export.

pipeline text-processing functional
Python
import re
import sys


def pipe_filter_chain(stream):
    def uppercase(text):
        return text.upper()

    def strip_whitespace(text):
        return " ".join(text.split())

    def remove_numbers(text):
        return re.sub(r"\d+", "", text)

Bayesian A/B Test Credible Interval in Python

Simulates A/B test data and computes posterior credible intervals and the probability that variant B outperforms A using Bayesian Beta-Binomial inference.

import numpy as np
from scipy import stats

# Simulated A/B test data
n_A = 1000
n_B = 1000
conversions_A = 120
conversions_B = 140

# Prior: Beta(1, 1) uniform
alpha_prior, beta_prior = 1, 1

# Posterior parameters
alpha_A = alpha_prior + conversions_A
beta_A = beta_prior + n_A - conversions_A
alpha_B = alpha_prior +…

How to Conduct a Two-Sample T-Test in Python

Performs Welch's t-test for two independent samples, computing the t-statistic, degrees of freedom, and p-value using NumPy and SciPy.

Copy-ready Python snippets for learners and developers

PythonSkillset code samples are short, focused examples organised by topic and difficulty. Every snippet is server-rendered HTML — readable by search engines and easy to copy. Open any sample, read the notes, copy the code, then press Try in editor to run it in the browser with Pyodide.

How to use this library

  1. Pick a topic section — strings, lists, files, functions, and more
  2. Open a sample, read How it works, and copy the code block
  3. Run it in the IDE, tweak values, then take a related quiz or tutorial lesson

Samples vs tutorials and challenges

Samples are quick reference — one concept per page. For step-by-step teaching, use our Python tutorials. To test yourself, try quizzes or coding challenges. Clean up style with the Python formatter.
