Is it possible to print characters on top of each other without erasing the previous one in order to have both superscript and subscript?

I am wondering if I can have print() outputs such as

                                    

in a terminal and/or an IPython/Jupyter Notebook. I want to develop a library working with toleranced dimensions and these types of pretty-printed outputs will come quite handy during development and testing.

What I know so far:

  • There are escape characters such as Carriage Return \r that goes to the beginning of the line without erasing the existing characters and the Backspace \b that deletes the last character. For example print("some text\bsome other text \rbingo", end="") should give me bingotexsome other text. Anyway, when printing a new character the previous one is erased.
  • I also know how to use Unicode characters to have superscripted/subscripted digits and plus/minus signs. For example, the print('1.23\u207a\u2074\u2027\u2075\u2076') will give me something like 1.23+4.56 and print('1.23\u208b\u2087.\u2088\u2089') outputs close to 1.23-7.89. Although what unicode characters should be used for superscript/subscript decimal delimiters (in this case period/dot/point) is still debatable. There are multiple options for superscipted dot including also \u0387 and \u22c5. However, AFIK there are no unicode characters suitable for subscripted dot. (more info here)

what I don't know

  • if there is an escape character or Unicode one that replicates the left arrow ā† key on the keyboard?
  • how to print without erasing the pixels in the terminal? Is there a way to print/display characters on top of each other?
  • and if none of the above is possible in a terminal, if/how I can control the HTTP/CSS outputs in a Jupyter Notebook to print both superscript and subscript at the same time?

ValueError: X has 10 features, but LinearRegression is expecting 1 features as input

So, I am trying to predict the model but its throwing error like it has 10 features but it expacts only 1. So I am confused can anyone help me with it? more importantly its not working for me when my friend runs it. It works perfectly fine dose anyone know the reason about it? cv = KFold(n_splits = 10) all_loss = [] for i in range(9): # 1st for loop over polynomial orders poly_order = i X_train = make_polynomial(x, poly_order) loss_at_order = [] # initiate a set to collect loss for CV for train_index, test_index in cv.split(X_train): print('TRAIN:', train_index, 'TEST:', test_index) X_train_cv, X_test_cv = X_train[train_index], X_test[test_index] t_train_cv, t_test_cv = t[train_index], t[test_index] reg.fit(X_train_cv, t_train_cv) loss_at_order.append(np.mean((t_test_cv - reg.predict(X_test_cv))**2)) # collect loss at fold all_loss.append(np.mean(loss_at_order)) # collect loss at order plt.plot(np.log(al...

Sorting large arrays of big numeric stings

I was solving bigSorting() problem from hackerrank: Consider an array of numeric strings where each string is a positive number with anywhere from to digits. Sort the array's elements in non-decreasing, or ascending order of their integer values and return the sorted array. I know it works as follows: def bigSorting(unsorted): return sorted(unsorted, key=int) But I didnt guess this approach earlier. Initially I tried below: def bigSorting(unsorted): int_unsorted = [int(i) for i in unsorted] int_sorted = sorted(int_unsorted) return [str(i) for i in int_sorted] However, for some of the test cases, it was showing time limit exceeded. Why is it so? PS: I dont know exactly what those test cases were as hacker rank does not reveal all test cases. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73007397/sorting-large-arrays-of-big-numeric-stings
