Some time ago there was a post asking for help on a rock/paper/scissors
game. I read that thread at the time it was posted, but since it
received several answers I didn't pay too much attention to it. But I
can't find that thread again right now. However, the subject stuck

Shen is a hypermodern functional programming language based on a core that is
essentially a Lisp, but portable to many major language platforms. One of these
platforms is Python. I am asking for support for the Shen project in this video

I found that BDD is a very good philosophy for coding and checking my program,

Although it doesn't mention this in the PEP, a significant point that

The trick here is that numpy really is the "right" way to do this stuff.
I like to say:
"crunching numbers in python without numpy is like doing text processing
without using the string object"

That's because chemists are lazy.
The recipe says,

A mole is an amount of matter measured in [kg] .
The Avogadro's number can only be a dimensionless number, [1] .
The Avogadro's constant is the Avogadro's number (of "pieces" or
"objects") per mol, [1 / mol].
