y^2 = -x and x= 2y; and neither can be zero. Solve for x and y 🙂 Fun one. If I share the solution, it’d be no fun, but I’ll give you a hint below (you can do this) but do the process to get to this 🙂

The world’s first “smart”-phone
It was in the late 90s when, fresh out of university, I got my first real career job at now defunct Geoworks based in Alameda, CA (their Seattle resources taken over by Amazon.com since). They built the embedded platform on Unix for various mobile devices including PDAs, beepers and such (remember those?). I was on […]
Adding sound to Python code
Python isn’t necessarily for multimedia programming, so only recently I looked up ways to add audio in a Python script. Turns out there are several ways to do that. They’re all really simple. Methods to add sound: 1. import winsound fname = “soundfile.wav” winsound.PlaySound(fname, winsound.SND_FILENAME) 2. import pygame pygame.init() s = pygame.mixer.Sound(“soundfile.wav”) # Start playback […]
Python and SQL
As expected Python has great connectivity to SQL and its variants; Python is made for queries and data analysis afterall. So, I decided to tinker with it a bit (I’m not a programmer per se, see my About page; so I share these simpler, more approachable codes for inspiring interest and education for beginners and […]
Program to care for a pet (Scratch)
Hello, and welcome back. Today, A fun program to introduce kids/beginners to understand logic and loops while taking care of a pet fish 🙂 Easy to code and easy to play. Code is commented with explanation. Check it out here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/282372671/ Enjoy! Challenge: I intentionally kept the core code simple and uncomplicated. However, if you grasp the […]
Beauty of sequence…
Someone sent me this found on the web. Very interesting sequences and numbers patterns.
Abstract Art with Code (Art<->Tech). Volume III
VOLUME 3 If arts and tech had a baby, may it’d look like me 🙂 Anyway, I love mixing the two, interconnecting, and interpolating them…because I’m always curious. Results can be incredibly satisfying or surprising. These are not the best of my work in any form in coding, but wanted to share these short programs […]

Drawing Graphics using Python (Turtle)
In this blog, I show you how to use draw graphics in Python. Objective:Â I want to draw dots (circles, really if they’re larger than a pixel)…of different sizes and colors at various locations multiple times (I chose 100X for this demo). This is how the output looks like: Source Code: The complete source is below. […]
