This article can be considered a continuation of part 1. Slicing of Numpy Arrays: Slicing in NumPy works similarly to slicing in Python’s built-in lists, but has some additional features that can be useful. The general syntax for slicing a NumPy array is a[start:stop:step, start:stop:step, ...], …

The advent of python as (almost) the language of choice for AI enthusiast programmers has stirred a lot of interest in data structures like arrays, specially Numpy arrays. I have always struggled with understanding them and if I don’t use them for a while, I have to be reminded. …

While coming up with an NFT collection, it’s possible that you might have to manipulate the entire collection in bulk. Python makes it very easy. Say hello to the Pillow (PIL) library. It is an acronym for Python Image Library. Let’s import it. …

The rise of blockchain technology in the last decade or so has introduced us to many new technologies. As if it wasn’t hard to wrap one’s head around digital currency, now we are introduced to other technologies like de-fi, flash loans, NFTs and so on. Fungible vs Non-fungible: NFT stands…

How to implement adversarial search by programming an AI algorithm that plays tic tac toe against the user. — This article can be considered a continuation of “A Comprehensive Guide to Graph Search in Python”. Adversarial search tried to compete with an opponent which is trying to achieve the opposite goal. The idea is that by anticipating the moves of the opponent in response to moves by the algorithm…

Developing and launching an NFT collection has definitely been a learning experience. One of the crucial component of any NFT collection is the .json metadata file. Usually, they are generated in bulk and I wrote about it here. However, once you generate them, you may want to add or edit…

Recently, I worked on launching an NFT collection with my friend. Until then, I had no experience with Solidity. There are tons of templates available online for free to help you build your contract however it took me a while to figure out how withdraw from the contract. …

NFTs are the current rage. I have realized that most NFT projects are not about selling “art”. The image is just a representation of a token. But most projects come with a promise of some reward in the form of a cryptocurrency. Most buyers buy them with the hope of…

Generate thousands of unique images for your NFT collection, layer by layer, along with metadata using Python. — When I wrote the first article, I was just exploring the process of generating NFT images. As I learned more, I realized it’s not just about generating images, but also generating metadata, as well as storing the images in the cloud. You can think of this article as an improved…
