Python: Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones of same length

Python Basic: Exercise-142 with Solution

Write a Python program to check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones of same length in a given string. Return True/False.

Sample Solution-1:

Python Code:

def test(str1):
    while '01' in str1:
        str1 = str1.replace('01', '')
    return len(str1) == 0

str1 = "01010101"
print("Original sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "00"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "000111000111"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "00011100011"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))

Sample Output:

Original sequence: 01010101
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
True

Original sequence: 00
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
False

Original sequence: 000111000111
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
True

Original sequence: 00011100011
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
False

Sample Solution-2:

Python Code:

def test(str1):
    temp=[]
    for x in str1:
        if (x=='0'):
            temp.append('0')
        else:
            temp.pop()
    return not temp

str1 = "01010101"
print("Original sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "00"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "000111000111"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))
str1 = "00011100011"
print("\nOriginal sequence:",str1)
print("Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:")
print(test(str1))

Sample Output:

Original sequence: 01010101
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
True

Original sequence: 00
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
False

Original sequence: 000111000111
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
True

Original sequence: 00011100011
Check if every consecutive sequence of zeroes is followed by a consecutive sequence of ones in the said string:
False

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
