How to Compare Execution Speed Between Python Functions
Measure and compare the average execution time of multiple Python functions using a reusable benchmark helper with time.perf_counter.
import time
import random
def method_a(values):
"""Sort using built-in sorted."""
return sorted(values)
def method_b(values):
"""Sort using list's sort method."""
values_copy = values[:]
values_copy.sort()
return values_copy
def method_c(values):
"""Sort manually using bubble sort (slow,…
How to Test Hypotheses with Property-Based Check in Python
A Python search that checks an integer property (palindrome divisible by digit sum) and returns the first counterexample within a range, with exactly reproduced output from the code.
def is_property_satisfied(n):
"""
Demonstrates a mathematically inspired property:
checks whether n is both a palindrome and divisible by its digit sum.
"""
s = str(n)
if s != s[::-1]:
return False
digit_sum = sum(int(d) for d in s)
return digit_sum != 0 and n % digit_sum == 0
