Yup. You’ll see functions wrapped inside other functions all the time. The function on the inside will run first, then the next, etc.

In the example I gave, the value of nam is a string. But it you need to perform some mathematical function to it, it needs to be interpreted as a number. So once the value is received, int() will convert it into a number. Finally, that final value will be assigned to nam. Wrapping functions inside of functions is a great way to write concise code.

I think you need to look into string concatenation, the easiest and best of which is f strings. You could do something like;

print(f’welcome, {nam}')

You could also “add” the strings together.

print('welcome, ’ + nam)

Another thing, when assigning the output of something to a variable, you can think of it as “the result of the code right of the equals sign is the value of the variable”.

The input function assumes that the value should be interpreted as a string, but what if want it to be a number? You can just wrap another function around your input

user_number = int(input(‘what’s the number?’))

Your experience may vary but I’m a network engineer who learned Python and I think learning regex and pandas is invaluable. Depends on what you want to build though. As far as learning resources, I’ve always liked w3schools, it’s free and to the point.

For books, python 101 by Michael Driscoll is very good. I wouldn’t spend money on courses. They can be pretty demotivating and expensive.

Yes but the comment i replied to is insinuating that EFT active players are up despite the community backlash

Source? There’s no publicly available info on player counts other than BSGs word, so I’m calling BS

EoD is edge of darkness. It’s basically the most expensive version of the game which was originally offered and was supposed to include all subsequent dlc, hence the outrage(ridiculous pay to win features and price aside). SPT is a modded version of EFT(escape from tarkov) that let you play the game single player and added a bunch of cool stuff. BSG(Battlestate games, the publisher/dev studio) didn’t like that so they would copyright videos that used SPT. It’s a whole mess

Agreed. I think we took self expression too far. Things like the Internet, hip hop, counter culture etc definitely changed how we express ourselves. I cringe at the idea of how I defended the use of words and phrases even as an adult, hiding behind defenses like “intent matters”. It wasn’t until I was in my late 20s that I started to think about how the things that I express might be harmful to others. Thankfully I don’t see many kids act like we acted. I even caution my son against the use of phrases that might be worded too strongly, such as something “being stupid”. If we can give our children a world to inherit, I think they can come closer than we’ve ever been to world peace.

I guess let people have their fun, but I agree. Class C space is pretty insignificant

This is very troubling.

I’m not a developer but I write a lot of code for network infrastructure automation… when I started learning I was already a network engineer so I figured it would be a cakewalk. I think it takes a certain type of person (patience, persistence, tenacity, etc) to excel in a computer science field. I’d reckon a lot of young people think the jobs are all pretty sweet and cushy

I agree with most of what you said but it wouldn’t hurt to create a watered down version of the site and put it on a subdomain like noobs.github.com … There can be separate UIs for different kinds of users.

They could ask when you register an account what you intend to use GitHub for and what your familiarity is.

What are the implications of this?

They have gotten more expensive in the last couple decades. It’s a pretty famed data set for aspiring data scientists. https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/neuromusic/avocado-prices

I think the prices skyrocketed when keto diets were the fad. It’s pretty strange for avocados to be as expensive as they are when it’s been a staple in south/central American countries.

Played the shit out of tlou multiplayer. It felt like something that got added to the game with little effort or creativity and it came out amazing. When TLOU2 was released I was saddened to hear that there would be no multiplayer yet but that it was coming. It didn’t need to be much. It could have been the same multiplayer experience with some new maps. Uncharted3 and uncharted 4 multiplayer was great. The community really made the multiplayer what it was. That’s where NickEh30 started making content I loved watching SanchoWest on YouTube going over some of his favorite plays.

Really sucks that companies get away with this “we’ll finish out the game after the release” and there’s no consequence. It was promised.

lol you can’t have an opinion about a country if you’ve never been there? Wtf is that

You quoted half of the sentence. I think there’s enough substance on there to consider that an informed opinion.

Never looked into those, they’re more affordable than I thought they’d be

I have been a network engineer with no degree for many years, but I did have a lot of certs. It’d be nice if there were something similar for programming. But I’ve never seen anyone care that much about the engineer title. I’ve always thought it’s someone who understands his craft/engine design in and out, but doesn’t design it himself. The architect designs it. The tech can perform documented solutions

IANAL but i’m pretty sure that even without an NDA anything you develop on the job is considered IP of the company. However, as long as it’s not a blatant copy paste(a rewrite), it’s hard to legally enforce that because they have to prove damages. Meaning that if they shelfed the idea/program, even if it’s a blatant copy paste they can’t do anything.

Thanks, just downloaded it.
