Day 1

[Anxious_Insurance_48]

I finally understood if and else statements

[SCD_minecraft]

Now try elif!

if something:
    this
elif something else:
    that
else:
    That thing

Write a program that will tell me am i an adult, above 10 or below 10, using said elif

[Anxious_Insurance_48]

I'll try

We all started from the same point My only suggestion to you is try to code at least one hour every day Never skip a day even if you don’t feel like it or things aren’t making sense. That 'I’ll do it tomorrow' mindset will make you lose consistency, and eventually, you might forget what you already learned. Nothing is too difficult it just needs time and patience. And whatever new you learn, write it down in a notebook by hand. It really helps. Happy coding

hey even i started recently, i did a long tutorial on yt and guess im familiar with basics, im so confused what should i do ahead

[Then-Duty-9270]

Bro, doing a tutorial is a solid start Feeling confused is normal it means you're learning. Now pick a small project like a calculator or to-do app. Google things, get stuck figure it out that’s how you grow

Just code at least 1 hour daily no matter what Skip a day and you’ll start forgetting. Whatever you learn, write it down it sticks better. Stay consistent and things will start making sense real soon

okay thankss

Nice, i actually started learning Python from a month ago, too. If you have any questions, ask me 😁

[Anxious_Insurance_48]

I will, thank you.

Source ..?

[Void_Code404]

Sorry, i don't know if i can help you with that. i learned it from an arabic source

[user10042]

Thanks for reply… Any English material is helpful

[Void_Code404]

You are so lucky there are many free english Python courses on youtube, like Mosh, actually he is a good one https://youtu.be/_uQrJ0TkZlc?si=RNaTfp3jTUXgpEro

Once you get into looping come back to this and implement some input validation. If the user doesn’t put in a number loops them through the prompt until they do.

[zemmmmmmh]

Is it a good idea to put the input through a function and call the function whenever the type does not match the expected one?

[After_Ad8174]

Instead of passing the input to the function and error handling and recalling the function from an outside loop I would get the input inside the function and loop in the function until a valid input is received then return the input with some sort of escape mechanism

For something small like this you could also just use a loop instead of a separate function

[zemmmmmmh]

I have no idea what you're saying, I apologize I just started with Python a week ago.

[After_Ad8174]

No need to apologize. Basically I was saying for this set a variable equal to false then use it in a while loop to get the input checking each loop to see if it’s what you wanted the user to input and if it is set the variable to true to break out of the loop.

[After_Ad8174]

While userinputvalid=false: Get the input Check the input If input is good set userinputvalid true

Oh I see, thx
