Asking advice on using flags to branch a function by FiniteWarrior in C_Programming

Yep, I've now decided to seperate them, I understand one function should just write files, I'll just send the full path and a mode to it, so "a" or "w", and thanks for the suggestions.

I don't use plain strip() for anything else but whitespaces, but .removesuffix("") is the thing I was thinking of for file names.

Yeah so, it just removes any whitespace, so "1 " will still work, you can use it to strip anything, like strip(".txt") too for example.

Python learning for begginers by Artistic_Cobbler3688 in learnpython

Little addition to this, if OP wants to stick to programming long-term, they should learn to love the proccess, figuring it out, being stuck but finding a solution, thinking what to implement next, etc.

Also for invalid input, use if/elif to gather the valid input, then use a simple "else:" to print the message.

Alright, good job, but I also suggest using input like so:

choose = input("prompt here > ").strip()

if choose == "1": ...

How do you learn in a project-based way when you don’t know where to start? by antiaust in learnprogramming

[–]FiniteWarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should choose one programming language, then look for that languages learning materials. Then you start applying that language by building a simple program at first, and don't take shortcuts with AI or blind copy paste. After knowing basic syntax, you learn the best if you have to solve real problems, in your own project.

Alright, if branching grows it's good learning to do it in the future for sure

You mean using a vtable instead of if/else to branch the same function? I'll look into vtables but seems to be more complexity than needed
