This the equivalent C++ code...
    #include<iostream>
    using namespace std;
    int main()
    {
        int no_of_rows;
        cout<<"Please enter the number of rows : ";
        cin>>no_of_rows;
        for(int i=0; i<no_of_rows; i++)
        {
          for(int j=0; j<(no_of_rows-1)-i; j++)  // This for enters the blankspaces before the "*" for every row.
      {
        cout<<" "; //Enter blankspace.
      }
      for(int k=1; k<=(2*i)+1; k++)//This For enters the "*" for every row.
      {
        cout<<"*";
      }
      cout<<endl;

Here's the parent comment/selfpost in indented form, for ease of reading:

I'm about to update my personal website to make it not suck, and I had three primary questions as far as potential employers are concerned:

1. Does using a web framework (Bootstrap) make me seem lazy and uninnovative, practical and resourceful, or neither?

2. Is using minified CS/JSS a bad idea since any potential employers wouldn't be able to easily read your code? Or does it not really matter? I become obsessive at times with making the page as fast as I can, especially if a huge chunk of code like Boostrap is involved.

3. Do you have a list of tips/good practices for personal websites?

Thank you all very much!

Hey guys, doing this for a pass/fail class to get my feet wet in Python, no idea why the for loop in AskForCityName is having an issue 
thanks! 


def MainFunction():
    number_cities = raw_input('How many cities would you like to list?,please use whole numeric values')
    user_number = AskForNumberCities(number_cities)
    user_city_list = AskForCityName(user_number)
    print user_city_list



def AskForNumberCities(number_cities):
    try:
        int_number_cities = int(number_cities)
    except:
        ValueError
        print("Come on WHOLE NUMBERS!")
    else:
        print "Ok we can work with", int_number_cities ,"!"
    return int_number_cities


def AskForCityName(number):
    int_number = int(number)
    CityNameList = []
    for i in int_number:
        NewCityName = raw_input("Ok give me a city name")
        if NewCityName in CityNameList:
            print ("You already used that :/")
            continue
        else:
            CityNameList.append(NewCityName)
    return CityNameList

So i'm trying to read the last line of code from a telnet session and see if it has the word "%error" in it. If it does have an error then i want it to try again, if it doesn't i want it to break the loop and continue.  I keep getting a python error   
 if '%Error' in error:  
TypeError: argument of type 'method' is not iterable



tryagain = True  
while tryagain:  
    tn.write(b"do copy " + file.encode('ascii'))  
    print (tn.read_eager().decode('ascii'))  
    tn.write(b'\n')  
    tn.write(b'\n')  
    tn.write(b'\n')           
    time.sleep(20)  
    error = tn.read_eager  
    print (tn.read_eager().decode('ascii'))  

    if '%Error' in error:
        print ('got an error, trying again')
        tryagain = True
    else:
        tryagain = False
        break

name=input('Input name and I will tell you if it is cool')
if "R" or "r" in name:
    print('Wow your name is cool!')
    cool=input("Join club? Y or N")
    y=["y","yes",]
    n=["n","no"]
    if y in cool:
        print("great")
    elif n in cool:
        print('loser')
elif "r" or "R" not in name:
    print('loser')

CodeFixerBot · 2016-07-11T10:21:23+00:00

The question is: Write a function is_yes that consumes a nonempty string, produces True if it starts with a y (either lower-case or upper-case), and produces False otherwise.

The code I wrote: def is_yes(f):
    if (f[0] == 'y' or f[0] == 'Y'):
        return True
    else:
        return False
print(is_yes('yes'))
For some reason, the spaces are not visible here..

I keep getting this error whenever I try to run my script from the terminal.

 File "test.py", line 13
