seats = 20
assignments = apportionment.huntington_hill(votes, seats)
Calculating the effective number of parties using Golosov’s measure.
from voting import diversity
parties = [750, 150, 50, 50]
effective_parties = diversity.golosov(parties)
Measuring the disproportionality of democratic representation using the Sainte-Lague measure.
from voting import proportion
votes = [750, 150, 50, 50]
seats = [80, 16, 2, 2]
disproportionality = proportion.sainte_lague(votes, seats)
Determining the Droop quota

votes = 1000
seats = 20
election_quota = quota.droop(votes, seats)
