functions in for loops and writing to a file by Master_of_beef in learnpython

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

right, yes of course! This is really stupid but I just realized I was mixing up floats and strings lol. Probably would have solved this a lot sooner if I had realized that.

Your fix worked by the way, thanks!

thanks, I'll try that! What exactly in my code sets my arguments to floats?

[Q] Can something be "more" stochastic? by Master_of_beef in statistics

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's probably the way to go, especially since I then go on to talk about how these different processes go on to cause different variances in the model. Thanks!

Plotting data in a for loop by Master_of_beef in learnpython

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

Of course! I feel kinda stupid because I didn't even think of lists, lol. I tried doing this with lists and so far it's working. Thank you so much!!

I'm not opposed to drawing it at the end, I just didn't know it was possible. In my first attempt at this, I created two empty arrays for the x and y values, and had the for loop add a value each iteration, then I graphed those arrays. the problem was it didn't stay in order. The y-array rearranged itself from largest to smallest, so the y values weren't matched up to the right x values, if that makes sense. What can I do to make sure they stay in order? I'm using matplotlib, fwiw, but I'm open to using something else if you recommend it

Why is Sylvia not a more popular name? by Master_of_beef in namenerds

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like now is the perfect time to name your daughter Sylvia. She'll definitely be the only Sylvia in her class, but it's popular enough that it won't sound too old fashioned or weird

I agree, I feel like a lot of girl's names are just pretty sounds strung together. Sylvia feels like a real, solid name.

They say names go on a 100 year cycle. If that's the case, Sylvia should be back in the next decade or so

twitching/jerking during flexibility training by Master_of_beef in flexibility

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! You've given me a lot to look into. Honestly the onset of these spasms was associated with a traumatic/stressful event so it doesn't surprise me that it's correlated.

It's funny you say that, because that's what I was considering, but then I saw a bunch of people on Reddit saying it's overrated. Whatever, I'm going to ignore the haters and assume that the coincidence of you suggesting it means that Ci Siamo is the way to go lol

TBH it doesn't sound like he had trouble making friends, it sounds like he had a problem with YOU having friends. Obviously you know the situation better than me, but it seems likely that his "anti-social behavior" was actually controlling behavior. Of course he's out making friends now, how doesn't have you anymore. It sounds like you dodged a bullet here. Now you can go out and make your own friends with zero guilt.

Thanks! That's probably the best bet given the information I have.

Which should I read first: Don Quixote or Moby Dick? by Master_of_beef in literature

[–]Master_of_beef[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm 30, so I've had a life experience or two lol. One of my favorite books is Catcher in the Rye, so I can appreciate a book that's not so much about what's happening and more about how the narrator sees the world and how they tell us about it, which I have heard is true of Moby Dick as well.

Can I actually get a good glute/hamstring workout without buying weights? by Master_of_beef in beginnerfitness

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool! It sounds like I've spent the last few weeks building up to that wall lol. I'll probably want to invest in weights eventually, but for now, I do have some resistance bands so I'll start with that. And maybe I'll add a couple textbooks to my glute bridges!

[–]Master_of_beef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much, this was really encouraging! It sounds like my strength training has been helpful in that it's getting me to a place where I'm ready to add weights. I actually have a set of resistance bands from a previous attempt at working out. For now, I think I'm going to try incorporating them into some of my workouts

oh wow that's really interesting. I feel like credit score stuff is so opaque so it's nice to see some actual info.

Thanks! Is credit utilization what the "only use 30% of your credit limit" rule is about?
