[TriEmbed] Python code for resistor selection

[Michael Monaghan]

Pete,

If these don't answer your need, at least they provide the dataset for your
target resistors:

https://techoverflow.net/blog/2015/05/19/finding-the-nearest-e96-resistor-value-in-python/

I think the second one is a good starting point.  Just need a simple
iterator to build a list of candidates.  I'm not aware of anyone with
pricing information in a digestible format and as often as it changes, it
would probably be better to build a web page scrape to get it.
