About the project

A small pure-Python neural network that decides whether a number is Numberwang, based on the Mitchell and Webb sketch. The model is a 1.8 MB JSON file and inference is about 100 lines of standard library code, no PyTorch or NumPy.

Useful for
  • Run python3 numberwang.py 22 to get a verdict for a number
  • Import load_model and wang_probabilities to embed the check in your own code
  • Start the local Gradio demo with python3 app.py

0.2 Quiet Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 2, 2026, 19:20 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

02550September 15, 2026November 2, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • The repository is 17 days old and already has 87 stars.
  • Hacker News: “WangNet – 1.8 MB, zero-dependency Numberwang adjudication in 11 languages” — 181 points, 16 days ago.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

The full 7-day window is unavailable; no weekly total or comparison is calculated.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
