![[Item Permalink]](http://radio.weblogs.com/0112083/images/ur_bullet.gif){kind=small} Sets in Python -- Comment()
Apparently a sets module is included with Python 2.3. This seems to be a nice implementation. I could have used sets for implementing the solution of Einstein's Riddle.

Documented Python code for solving the so-called Einstein's Riddle -- Comment()
I improved the object-oriented Python code (EDIT: updated the link/May 29, 2007) for solving the so-called Einstein's Riddle. Now the code is documented, and the input data is in English instead of Finnish. Here are the final results of a run: Choices: 1 1 2 3 4 5 yellow blue red green white norway denmark finland german sweden water tea milk coffee beer blues opera rock pop metal cat horse bird fish dogI noticed that here is a site containing Python code for solving logic puzzles like this one. This code is rather nice, and more general than mine. On the other hand, the code is also slower due to the generality of the approach.
