architectonic··on Show HN: Website that plays the lottery every second
Yes and another that uses a fixed ridiculous combination like 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. This is my favorite way for bringing the odds nearer to mind.

architectonic··on Floats Are Weird
That's called the stability of the algorithm. The first algorithm is not stable whereas the second with the logarithm is.

Another example: compare the two algorithms, that are actually pure-mathematically equal:

  def fc(x): 
      return sqrt(x+1) - sqrt(x)
  def fd(x): 
      return 1/(sqrt(x+1) + sqrt(x))

For large values of x (1e16 for example) plot the results and see the difference.

  xs = np.linspace(10\*14,10\*16,10000) 
  plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6), dpi=120) 
  plt.plot(xs,[fc(x) for x in xs]) 
  plt.plot(xs,[fd(x) for x in xs])
architectonic··on Pyflow – Visual and modular block programming in Python
I had worked on such a tool by extending pyqtgraph's flowcharts. Mainly executing the nodes when their input changes and showing a glowing box around the one running at the moment. Flowcharts supports multiple terminals already and I had added some custom nodes. Node execution must be delegated to a background thread so the gui is not blocked while the node executes. Doubleclicking a node shows a window for setting up the node. A custom class of nodes shows upon doubleclicking a simple python editor, upon execution the terminals get automatically the values of the variables carrying the same name as the terminals. It has been a lot of fun. I had used petl and pyspark for lazy loading so one could build large etl workflows.
