School Algorithms

school_algorithms is a Python module for secondary school maths and physics equations. It aims to provide a simple way for secondary school students to learn and calculate equations that they often use.

Functions include:

• A function that calculates power from energy and time
• A function that calculates energy from power and time
• A function that calculates time from power and energy
• A function that calculates Elastic Potential energy from the spring constant and extension
• A function that calculates Kinetic Energy from spead and mass
• A function that uses Pythagorean theorem to calculate the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle
• A function that uses Pythagorean theorem to calculate a leg of a right-angled triangle
• A function that calculates the area of a triangle
• A function that calculates the area of a trapezium
• A function that calculates the volume of a right rectangle pyramid
• A function that calculates the area of a circle
• A function that calculates the circumference of a circle
• A function that calculates the circumference of a circle using diameter
• A function that calculates the area of a sector in a circle
• A function that calculates the volume of a square based pyramid
• A function that calculates the Lowest Common Multiple from 2 numbers
• A function that calculates the Lowest Common Multiple from 3 numbers
• A function that calculates the Lowest Common Multiple from 4 numbers
• A function that calculates the Lowest Common Multiple from 5 numbers

To install:

>>> python3 -m pip install school_algorithms

To upgrade to latest version:

>>> python3 -m pip --upgrade school_algorithms

To import:

>>> import school_algorithms

How to use documentation:

Documentation is in the form of docstrings provided with the code.

The docstring examples assume that 'school_algorithms' has been imported:

>>> import school_algorithms

Code snippets are indicated by three greater-than signs:

>>> x = 42
>>> x = x + 1

Use the built-in help function to view a function's docstring:

>>> help(school_algorithms.power_calc)
