@nayuki In your Python code, the module 'fieldmath' imports 'numbers'. However it only uses a single reference - 'numbers.Integral'. Did you mean to remove this when you modified the code from your _Gauss-Jorda

Do you still have that bruteforce code? I've been trying on and off to reverse engineer the RS ECC in Chirp, a (now discontinued) app for sharing tokens over speaker/microphone. My current progress is summarised in https:/&#

It's not ideal. For instance if I as the caller wished to provide an empty dict-like object (e.g. dict_arg=collections.OrderedDict()), then your code would silently ignore it, and use a new dict. Instead of checking for any object that

QuickCheck et al do a random walk to find a value that fails the tests. Typically the value is large, complicated and unwieldy - particularly if the test involves nested structures. It might by 10s of KBytes in size, and most of the value i

A slightly OT question: does any 2016 Android phone have MHL/HDMI alt mode? It seems to be a feature that became dropped by multiple manufacturers around 2015. I wasn't able to find one in this year's models.

To my knowledge Three UK doesn't. That's based on using them and not noticing any degradation, or the click-to-view-original-quality javascript that T-Mobile were (are?) injecting.
