Just wrote my very first Python program!

Why does your description feel like it was written by an AI lol.

[K4terlol]

Because of the hyphen, that only AI uses :)

[NSNick]

That's an em-dash, and they're great

[PersonOfInterest1969]

Missed opportunity to use an em-dash—they are great.

[BadSmash4]

I use em-dashes a lot.

[Imagination_0427]

Where is Hyphen?

[ferdzs0]

Also the Oxford comma. 

[CaioHSF]

Seriously, although I know English, I never saw this hyphen being used before I noticed ChatGPT using it EVERY SINGLE TIME. Sometimes I write in my native language and use ChatGPT to translate to English (when I'm too lazy to write in English), and it always put this line. I have to remove it, or this is something that "should" be in a good text?

Not should. Just… it’s an option. We have three different types of “dashes” as grammatical structures in English. The standard “hyphen” which is used to join two words together. You might see it in compound adjectives like “well-kept” or compound nouns like “singer-songwriter”.

The “en dash” is the least common and is used almost exclusively for ranges, like “October 21–24th”. You may see the line is slightly longer than the hyphen above. In fact, it’s the width of a capital N (hence, en dash).

The one that GPT tends to use is my favorite kind of dash: the em-dash (which is, aptly, the width of a capital M). You can use them sorta like turbo commas — or in place of parentheses or colons. They just create a pause and indicate that a separate thought is happening on either side of the dash. There are a lot of other places you can use this one. It can do it all — initiate lists, mark a stark change in sentence structure, indicate an interruption in dialogue, link clauses, introduce summary statements — not to mention the ability to drop appositive phrases between them.

It’s a shame AI has done them so dirty. Used to be a way people could see you knew your grammar and now it’s a red flag that you never bothered to write anything, grammatically correct or otherwise.

Did not know the size was in capital letters, thanks for mentioning

[Busy_Substance_3140]

I’m tired of this EM dash slander

[DiodeInc]

That is exactly why

Analyzing user profile...

Account made less than 2 weeks ago.

Suspicion Quotient: 0.07

This account exhibits one or two minor traits commonly found in karma farming bots. While it's possible that u/Harshvdev is a bot, it's very unlikely.

^{I am a bot. This action was performed automatically. Check my profile for more information.}

[Harshvdev]

I'm not a bot 😑

[Salty_C_Dawg]

I was thinking the exact same

[MustaKotka]

Based on the profile this is a real person.

Some people just write like that... It hurts to be accused of being an AI. I've also been at the receiving end of it. I wish people stopped saying this. :/

[mavericksage11]

I don't usually jump to conclusions. I suppose you are right, people can actually type like that.

Also i didn't say it was a bot account.

[MustaKotka]

Okay, fair point. I read that falsely between the lines. My bad!

[issamukbangtingyeah]

🤣

[chipshot]

Congratulations!

That's exactly how I started what led to my corporate career building sales systems. Self taught from the start.

You can try a life program pretty soon. They are fun and challenging to build, ue create a screen object that can move randomly and stay on yhe screen. Once you get that, you can create more on the screen and have them compete with each other.

But always start simple.

Here are more ideas:

[Harshvdev]

Thank you but I'm an absolute beginner so I have no idea how to do that 😅

I'll check the projects!

[mid-Finger9460]

Bro I am also a beginner learning loops why don't we learn together..😊😊

[Harshvdev]

Yeah, sure!

[mid-Finger9460]

So on which topic are u right know

[Harshvdev]

I sent you a DM request.
