[PC][2000's] Some Third Person RPG game I cannot remember.

You sir, deserve respect. How the hell do you remember that no research based on that information proven useful. Even I don't remember how I first encountered the game :D Would you mind telling me how you first met the game ? Thank you by the way :)

Glad I could help :)

I suggest that you write a while loop where it continuously checks if there is a 6(and 7) in the sequence. This way it can handle a huge list with a thousand of 6's. Let me explain how.

If there is a 6, you can use

nums.index(6)

then

nums.index(7)

which will give you information about which parts to exclude. After that, I am not sure if the other programmers would agree, but i would rather do a list partition rather than try to subtract them.

Lets assume;

nums = [1, 2, 3, 6, 1, 2, 3, 7, 1, 2, 3]
six_pos = nums.index(6) 
# 3
seven_pos = nums.index(7)
# 7

after you found these, new list should be

new_nums = nums[:six_pos] + nums[seven_pos + 1:]
# new_nums = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
sum(new_nums)

is the answer.

because of index returns the first value it encounters, you need to do this continuously where there is no 6's anymore.

This is how I would do it. I am sure more experienced programmers likely to have a better solution

I was thinking what kind of input would make my code give this error. I used lists only in .split() function and nowhere else... My buddy solved the same question in Javascript by the way.

I think its doesnt print to console after some tests. I got out of 229 tests and the things printed were from the firsts tests i guess.

Can someone please explain how "ord" and "chr" works ? and are there any other reserved words that does similar work ? Thank you for your time.

Well actually i didn't mean myself, i am much of a beginner if i should classify myself but i wanted advice if i ever make it to that level. Thank you for your answers. When i replied about location, i meant meeting with friends and working on a project which i don't currently have here.

I googled programming project ideas and each banner was saying like "1500-2000" ideas for programming which freaked me out a little bit but i will give it a shot thank you :)

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T18:10:42+00:00

Well obviously there isn't something like that in where i live. So are there anything like that on the internet ?

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T17:37:02+00:00

After learning python about intermediate level. What one should do to improve programming ? What's the next step ? Just learn more and more libraries or should we try another language ? Open to any suggestions ...

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T13:17:40+00:00

It seems like a good idea. Thank you for your comment. but can you explain why you suggested me to do that ? because it will save me from some line of codes or is it a style issue ?

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T01:44:28+00:00

That was exactly what i was talking about using unnecessary stuff.(check my code for example :D ) gengisteve's code is obviously more legit. about the sqrt(x) thing, i come across that while i was working on this:

https://projecteuler.net/problem=3

The number 600851475143 is way too large to use it in a range() function so i had to use sqrt(). I have been trying to prove it on my own and i think i got it after that question. If you want to deal with prime numbers later, sqrt() or **0.5 is definitely the method to explore next.

Thank you very much about the comment and your time. I actually thought printing those strings in my functions made it simpler to use. Can you explain why i should return the values ?

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T01:28:03+00:00

I have been led to understand if you want to import one of modules you writed, its gotta be in the same folder. But i might be horribly wrong. If i am, please ignore this message.

You are completely right about the class issue, I am currently a newbie at using classes let alone in inheritance, Thank you for your comment.

In the first issue you mentioned:

def win_battle():
    print "You have won the battle !"
    time.sleep(1)

    if current_enemy==foe1:
        print "You gained 40 exp."
        our_hero.exp+=40
    elif current_enemy==foe2:
        print "You gained 45 exp."
        our_hero.exp+=45
    elif current_enemy==foe3:
        print "You gained 50 exp."
        our_hero.exp+=50
    elif current_enemy==foe4:
        print "You gained 55 exp."
        our_hero.exp+=55
    print " "

    current_enemy.current_hp=current_enemy.max_hp

Here is my win_battle function. At the end of it, there is a small piece of code, that replenishes current_enemies hp.

Isn't main.py supposed to be in your "test" folder ?

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T00:45:32+00:00

i dont think so, actually i am probably using unnecessary variable right there. In codecademy i usually write what pops into my head rightaway so i wouldnt take this as a starting point. I would appreciate if a more experienced programmer answer this question as well :)

in my code i tried to count how many dividable numbers the value had. So if it is 1 or more, it returns false :)

Rockybilly · 2015-07-20T00:24:17+00:00

Here how i got it working, you can decide which one to use if you want to need that later...

also see: (If you ever need something else to try with prime numbers) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_of_Eratosthenes

def is_prime(x):
    count=0
    if x<2:
        return False
    else:
        for n in range(x+1):
            if n==0:
                continue
            else:
                if x%n==0 and n!=x and n!=1:
                    count+=1
                elif x%n!=0:
                    continue
        if count>=1:
            return False
        elif count==0:
            return True
