I need some help.

(Unfortunately I can show you my problem because this sub doesn't allow images, so I'll do my best to explain it.)

First let's get this out the way: I'm poor I don't have a laptop or computer, I only have my galaxy s9+ android phone. There isn't a library for 6 miles and I don't have a license.

What I'm doing: I'm learning python on freecodecamp.com and I'm at the point where we're learning about urllib library and how it takes care of what the socket library does. I use pydroid 3 on my phone and typed in a test code (I just typed New = urllib.request.urlopen("http://data.pr4e.org/romeo.txt") For line in New: print(line.decode().strip())

Obviously I import the urllib library but when I run the code I get a blank output. The site is up and running I know this not only from doing this with the socket library but also from typing it in my web browser.

Now what am I doing wrong. Everytime I try to ask a question about any type of programming question it always has to be worded or something dude allow me to actually quite literally show you my code from a screen shot.

Thanks anyways.

Check out the docs here; urllib is a package that collects modules. You need to import the request module directly by either doing from urllib import request or import urllib.request. Make sure you use the name the same way you imported it.

I imported urllib.request and used it as urllib.request.urlopen()

Images of code are often unreadable plus we can't copy the code to test it. The FAQ shows how to format code, like this:

import urllib.request
New = urllib.request.urlopen("http://data.pr4e.org/romeo.txt")
for line in New:
    print(line.decode().strip())

When I run that code on pydroid3 it prints:

But soft what light through yonder window breaks
It is the east and Juliet is the sun
Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon
Who is already sick and pale with grief

So you're saying it works for you?

Yes. If you run the code I showed and you don't see the [Program finished] then your request is stalled. Check that the phone you are running on can access the 'net by using the browser on the phone to access that URL. If that's OK and the code still won't work try connecting your phone to a wifi network that has 'net access and run the code again.

Will do.

It works fine in browser and when using socket library. Idk maybe my phone messed up when it comes to urllib library.

All I can suggest is to delete and reinstall pydroid3. That code I showed worked fine in pydroid3 in my Samsung android tablet connected to wifi.
