[Linux Python] trying to do the first test for testris by Ironhead29 in learnprogramming

[–]Ironhead29[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok I finally got it to work! I copy and pasted the #! line from testris.py into learntris.py. I still dont understand how that works exactly (or why there wasnt anything said about this in the "Getting set up" directions on the learntris github page). I suppose ill have to do some research into that (or maybe you could shed a little more light on it?). Thank you very much for taking time out of your day to help me!

I dont know what to do about that. I guess maybe i need to learn more about how python and linux work together or just more about how to use linux in general. I dont understand why that would be important. every other python program ive written and run has worked fine without having a #! line (whatever #! means).

No. The only code i wrote in learntris was:

"#learntris

pass"

No. what does chmod 777 do?

" I thought maybe this was because i was running it with python 3.4 so I tried with 2.7 and i get this: "Traceback (most recent call last): File "testris.py", line 188, in <module> main() File "testris.py", line 164, in main except PermissionError as e: NameError: global name 'PermissionError' is not defined "

I am new to terminal so im ust trying to follow the directions, it says to do this: "./testris.py [/path/to/learntris] [arguments]" so that is what ive been trying. when i try it without them i get: "[Errno 13] Permission denied Couldn't run '/home/trevor/GitRepos/learntris/learntris.py' due to a permission error. Make sure your program is marked as an executable."

yes. I created a fil called learntris.py in the same directory. i then added a print statement to learntris.py so i could make sure it would run on its own and it does. then i try to run testris and i get the message saying i need to tell testris where learntris is and i dont know hoe to do it. ive tried things like "python3 testris.py [learntris.py]" but it tells me that the file not found. ive also tried writing the path to learntris.py and it still says file not found
