I need to shorten 10,000 URLs by taking the URL number and perform repeated divisions by 62, using the remainder to map to a character set. The character set
consists of lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and digits. The process continues until the number is reduced to zero.
# This will print shortened URLs for numbers 1 to 10,000
# You can replace the range with any number to generate a specific shortened URL.
# Note: The function `shorten_url` can be called with any integer to get its shortened URL representation.
# The above code will generate a unique shortened URL for each number from 1 to 10,000.
# The output will be a string of characters that can be used as a URL suffix.
# The character set used is:
# - Lowercase letters: a-z
# - Uppercase letters: A-Z
# - Digits: 0-9
# The total character set size is 62, allowing for a wide range of unique URL suffixes.
# The function `shorten_url` can be used to convert any integer into a unique URL suffix based on the specified character set.
# The function handles the conversion by repeatedly dividing the number by 62 and using the remainder to index into the character set.
# The output will be a string that can be appended to a base URL to create a shortened URL.
# The function is efficient and can handle large numbers, generating unique suffixes for each input number.
# The function can be used in various applications where URL shortening is required, such as in web applications, APIs, or any system that needs to generate short links.
# The function `shorten_url` can be used to generate unique URL suffixes for any integer input, making it versatile for various applications.
# The function can be easily integrated into a larger system where URL shortening is needed, providing a simple and effective way to create unique identifiers for resources.
# The function can be tested with various inputs to ensure it generates the expected shortened URLs.
# The function can be modified to handle edge cases or specific requirements as needed, such as handling negative numbers or zero.
# The function is designed to be straightforward and easy to understand, making it accessible for developers of all skill levels.
# The function can be optimized further if needed, but it is already efficient for the purpose of generating unique URL suffixes.
# The function can be used in conjunction with a database or other storage system to map shortened URLs back to their original forms, enabling full URL shortening functionality.
# The function can be extended to include additional features, such as tracking usage statistics or expiration dates for shortened URLs.
# The function can be used in a variety of contexts, such as social media platforms, content management systems, or any application that requires URL shortening.
# The function can be easily adapted to different character sets or base sizes if needed, providing flexibility for different use cases.
# The function can be used to generate unique identifiers for resources, making it suitable for applications that require unique keys or tokens.
# The function can be tested with a wide range of inputs to ensure robustness and reliability in generating unique URL suffixes.
# The function can be integrated into a web service or API to provide URL shortening capabilities for users or applications.
# The function can be used to create a simple URL shortening service, allowing users to generate short links for long URLs.
# The function can be used in conjunction with a web framework to create a complete URL shortening application, providing both the shortening and redirection functionalities.
