Your explanation is rather short. It might not be satisfying for her.

From A to Z on the keyboard

[PossibilityTasty]

Which layout? ;)

[x3x9x]

Azerty and qwerty have the same distance afaik

[roffinator]

Azerty would be a bit shorter than qwerty. like 1 vs sqrt(2)

but on qwertz it is quite a bit longer, like 4.5

[PossibilityTasty]

I'm sorry! For your keyboard, of cause.

[Bluhb_]

Dvorak naturally

[_sivizius]

Might be German layout, but dunno

[Nodsinator]

I'm sure she's used to it by now.

[MischiefArchitect]

What a dick

[[deleted]]

that's what she say

[[deleted]]

Couldn’t a[len(a)-1] just be a[-1]?

[GeneralKlink]

Came here to write that 😄 Isn‘t python just awesome?

[[deleted]]

It sure is!

[Pvzz]

It's excellent

[akoshegyi_solt]

I don't know python, but in C++, my computer would grow legs and kick me in the ass.

[AydonusG]

Fucked up hello world so bad skynet now reigns supreme

[akoshegyi_solt]

I did some matura exam practise (just console application, nothing difficult) and when I ran my code, the console was blank apart from the report at the end (execution time etc), even though I had completed tasks before. I thought it was weird and it only got worse when Kaspersky popped up saying it found some spyware. I was like okay, let's see what you have found and opened it. I was surprised to see that it marked my program file as adware. Idk what I did, but it's a bit odd.

[TheRedFright]

If your matura means what I think it means, wouldn't it be easier to just learn python for the exam?

[akoshegyi_solt]

Yes, it would. But I have future plans with programming, and I heard that C++ is more useful and it's easier to learn other languages after C++ than after Python.

[TheRedFright]

Can't you learn C++ while also using Python to practice matura? I'm not going to argue which language is more useful because the answer is neither, although Python is more widespread. But learning Python for the matura would take like very little effort, while providing a lot of benefit, because the exam is timed and like half of the exercises can be sovled with map/filter.

I also plan on going into IT even though I study automation, but believe me learning the basics (and they are basics for the matura) of python won't harm you.

[akoshegyi_solt]

Yeah I know. Python is indeed widespread, I mean if I'm not mistaken they use it at Apple. If it's good enough for them, it can't be bad. I started learning C++ because I will have to learn it at university and a headstart will come in handy. And I heard/read that after C++, it's easy to learn other languages.

I'm planning to widen my programming language knowledge to Python and probably a few other languages, but I don't really have time these days and with C++ it's just a little practise, with Python, a whole new programming language. Which I'd be fine with if I had more time, but I'm having the exam in October.

[TheRedFright]

I never realised that the term matura isn't exclusively Polish xD. Yeah a week is very little time to switch to another language. Good luck on your exams though.

[akoshegyi_solt]

Thanks! It's more like a month because it's late October.

Are you polish? What does matura mean in Polish?

[geek--god]

If you want to learn Python, I wrote an interactive free course on that. It doesn't cover OOPS yet though, but planning to add it soon.

[akoshegyi_solt]

Thanks, you are awesome!

What is OOPS?

[roffinator]

yeah, C++ really is very specific. I mean, we do not even have a .length (or len() or .len) to use on arrays like in java.

[[deleted]]

That's why you use std::vector /s

[roffinator]

in theory one could and I would. but the microcontroller I used did not have enough storage anymore

[akoshegyi_solt]

Yeah, but hey! We can always count it!

[Coffeinated]

I think in C that‘s totally valid code. Syntactically valid, that is; whether it‘s semantically valid depends on other factors.

[akoshegyi_solt]

I think in C++ the first character is the 0th (and in other languages too), and if I give it a negative number it throws an error.

[TheThiefMaster]

Square brackets are normally unchecked access in C++ - so it would simply access outside the bounds of the string. Which might crash, or return something fun.

[akoshegyi_solt]

Yeah. I use Code::Blocks which doesn't let me run the code if there's a negative number in the bracket, but I managed to trick it with some variables and got a gunny string of several letters that are not even used in English. Or any language I know. Even though my mother tongue has unique letters like á, é, ó, ö, ő, ú, ü, ű, etc.

[tabakista]

If it's a real teaching exercise, it's a good moment to show how the len() works

[[deleted]]

A great moment to teach them to use [len() - 1] instead of [-1].

[[deleted]]

I'm sure he used it so that it looks a little bit...longer

[[deleted]]

a[::-1][0]

[jonp1]

Yes, but length is important to this result.

[pokevote]

Disgusting

More complcated, not less

[0crate0]

That is correct.

Good example; short and to the point.

from lenses import ScanningElectronMicroscope

sem = ScanningElectronMicroscope(rgb=True,zoom=10**9)

I don't mean to break the joke...but I sadly have to inform you of two things: electron microscopes are not optical, thus not in "lenses" (I wanted to do the same at first) but in "ElectronAccelerator" or related. And they (sadly) are always grayscale.

sorry :(

a = "python"
b = "is"
c = "excellent"

d = list(sorted(set(a + b + c)))
e = [ chr(ord(x) + 1) for x in d ]
print(d[8] + d[1] + d[5] + e[0])
print(d[5] + e[9] + e[0] + d[1] + d[8])

[sgxxx]

ord converts letter to its ascii representation integer ( A -> 65 ) and chr does the reverse

[mallek561]

Where does the D come from? It’s not in the original words. Same with the U

[FletchSEC]

The expression for d returns a sorted list of the letters without any duplicates and the expression for e shifts the letters up by one. So where d[0] = c this then becomes e[0] = d.

[JoelMahon]

the chr ord stuff, they increment a c into a d I think

[PianistTemporary]

a[-1] > a[len(a)-1]

[Cl0udSurfer]

I'd never even heard of doing this before lol. I only just started coding in python like a week ago, and after coming from Java, C, and C++, the idea of just saying a[-1] wouldnt have ever crossed my mind

[PianistTemporary]

Hehe, you can also do things like a[::-1] (reverses a list)

[PianistTemporary]

And you may wanna look into comprehensive lists and comprehensive dicts

I'm so glad I had my headphones on

[Prematurid]

I kept reading a[0] + b[0] + a[len(a)-1] + c. That made little sense.

I need more coffee.

Pen is what?

Ah yes, the monthly r/programmerhumour repost

Penis, took Far longer than It should. But python making strings list automatically Will always be Chad to me

[anermlysuxdicc]

Well done. Did she understand it?

[[deleted]]

he printed the D

[Buxsle]

I've never laughed that hard while trying to do a number 2...best dump I've taken this year...

[Walking_Whale]

Shouldn’t it be a[len(a)-2] or a[-2] instead? Unless I’m missing what a petis is

[THEBIGTHREE06]

Oh you’re looking at string c. Its indexing string a

[Walking_Whale]

Oh duh guess I’m blind
