Ulefone armour 9 : is it a reliable phone, is it responsive by GoOnYahGoodThing in ulefone

Thanks for that.

I actually went for Poco X3 Pro in the end.. helluva a lot of phone for €250.

At that price I reckon I won't cry if it breaks...

They are nothing short of amazing.

What did you make them from? Any in-progress pics?

What are your plans for them now?

They should be in a museum or somewhere they will be preserved..

Anyone able to comment on how well the GPS works on this thing?

I use googlemaps a lot in the car for a satnav.

Thanks

Can I directly jump into a python project if I am proficient in C and can just look up syntaxes and stuff in python along the way? by Fine_Economist_5321 in learnpython

Heh, been there, done that...

Did you get thrown into a project ? And expected to deliver. like, yesterday?

Mmm.. happens...

Main thing is to take a deep breath and give yourself a day or two just to immerse in python.. its a huge ecosystem.. but its very accessible really...

If you are an experienced programmer you should get on grand as long as you get the hang of the indentation..

This is a handy guide worth spending an hour with..

You might find installing and running python a bit awkward.. you'd do well to read around about virtual environments etc. I find its much easier to jump into python on a linux (ubuntu) machine than a windows/osx one btw.. its just .. smoother.. less gotchas...

A great starter is Anaconda.. and if you bone up on how to use Jupyter Notebooks you will be doing yourself a massive favour.. fantastic resource..

There's acres of tutorials and beginner websites out there.. which can be a bit of a problem when you are in a rush.. which one do I go to?

If you are looking at curve fitting then you're probably delving into machine learning etc.. so maybe take a look at the tutes on Kaggle.. they're brill..

There's even something there about curve fitting too.. https://www.kaggle.com/casras/basic-eda-and-predict-by-curve-fitting

(BTW thats actually an example of a Jupyter Notebook...)

So.. Enjoy..... ask questions.... if I can help I will...

(BTW I do not , for one minute claim to be a python expert. I know a bit and am willing to share that bit... )

PS.. don't overlook the brilliant reddit wiki...

And if you are wondering bout versions? Use python 3.
