Euclidean distance is the length of the line segment between two points in Euclidean space. It can be calculated from the Cartesian coordinates of the points using the Pythagorean theorem. It is a simple formula enough to be calculated by hand but powerful enough to be used in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence applications for […]

New Arrival: Shrimp Care App!
I recently picked up a new hobby: Shrimp keeping! Having 40+ years of experience with keeping tropical fish, I thought this would be an interesting addition and to put my extra 29 gallon tank to good use. To get started, of course, I researched online about types of shrimps and their requirements. Then I joined […]
Word Connect Game
Recently, the game on New York Times has been getting a lot of attention and generating much excitement by the readers. While I don’t subscribe to the newspaper, my friends shared the game screens with me which prompted me to ponder if I could create my version of this in Python. So, after a few […]
Population, Procreation Simulation (Python)
In this post, I share my design and code for simulating some propagating organisms (you can think of them as humans, other creatures, cells, objects, whatever you like) with certain rules. And although I have a couple of other variations of this made in C/C++ in the past, I wanted to do it in Python […]
Bingo: Player v CPU (Python)
In this post, I share how l implementedd the classic Bingo game (American version) in Python. This version is one player versus CPU. See the rules below if you’re not familiar with Bingo (especially American version). More details about the program and the link to the full source code below along with ability to play […]
Simulating object’s free fall on different planets, sun, and the moon
How can we simulate a box being dropped straight from some height on Earth and graphically show the action in real-time? How will it be different on the Moon? Or on the Sun (assume it can resist the high temperature), or on other planets including dwarf planet like Pluto? Well, that was my curiousity that […]
Word definitions, synonyms, antonyms via RAPIDAPI
This program gets all definitions of a user-entered word from WORDS API service called RAPIDAPI. Once connected, the response is in JSON and we display the meanings neatly on screen as well as optionally write (append) the word and its meanings(s) and part-of-speech to a csv file. Demonstrates: 1) how to get word definition using […]
Extract sample subset but in specific proportions
How to load a subset of data from a full dataset with specific proportions. For example, we have a dataset of food items from different groups: dairy, fruits, protein, vegetable in an XLSX sheet and we want to load a subset of data from it such that: 30% of the picked sample are ‘vegetable’ from […]
Generative Voice AI – resemble.ai
I don’t like the ending tone in some of the words as I don’t use that tone; it seems a bit annoying; also I noticed (may or may not be apparent to you from this quick sample), but the AI model seems to have a more British tonality than American for certain words and expressions. […]
Summarization & Detecting Topics by Deepgram Whisper AI
This is the last of 3-part series on Datagram’s Audio->Text Transcriber using their latest AI engine called Whisper. Be sure to read them in this order, if you haven’t already, to follow along best: To complete essentially all the features I care to implement, today I’m going to add the last 2 features in my […]
