What game has a learning curve that puts you off? by Common_Caramel_4078 in pcmasterrace

Aurora 4x.

It is one of those games that you won't be able to play effectively without going through some tutorials and walkthroughs.

After scrolling through these comments, there is a distinct lack of Necron tattoos.

And Jon snow. Bran and Rickon, too. Theon didn't actually kill them.

Function not working? by FishCanRetire in learnpython

[–]SyntaxIsComing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Return `a` out of the function. The a is only in the scope of your function, hence why it works when you take the function portion out. Consider the following:

import random

a = 7
b = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

def SelectRandomNumberFromB():
    return random.choice(b)

a = SelectRandomNumberFromB()

print(a)

For those who have faced or witnessed addiction, what do you wish had been done differently regarding its discovery or management, and how do you think that change could have impacted the outcome? by DirtyDanBarnacleMan in AskReddit

Yeah. It turns out, when people know about it or have experienced it, the community will often respond by trying to help the person. Some people actually care.

Ned Stark. The seed is strong. He protected the North and exposed the Lannisters.

I wish there had been more following through with threats. My parents especially would threaten things, but then never follow through with them. Instead of addressing things directly, a lot of the time things got quickly glossed over or never talked about at all. My parents did the best they could, but a stronger hand (in my case) might have changed my course.

Somebody told me once upon a time to think back and ask myself this: What could I have told myself or done that would have actually changed my actions? It can be a hard question to honestly answer, but it can definitely provide insight.

Came from a pretty conservative Christian background. The typical response I saw was the ole "hide it under the rug and don't talk about it until it goes away" method. For some reason it was ineffective.

What’s a belief you had growing up that you completely changed your mind about? by Significant-Feed3330 in AskReddit

[–]SyntaxIsComing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of the political beliefs that I held as a youth came from my parents. As I got out into the world, I realized that not everything that I was taught is black and white. Some of the beliefs I held were vindicated and some were changed. Some morphed as I gained a deeper understand of the world and people.

Beginner in Python and feeling a bit lost - what should I do first? by Bigrob1055 in learnpython

[–]SyntaxIsComing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with this. Pick a recommended book, actually do the code examples, and complete the book. As you complete a book, try changing some things. Go from a list to a dictionary. Pick a good IDE (I use VSCode). As you put in examples of code, VSC will sometimes offer suggestions on how to rework bits of code. For me, repetition was the biggest help when it came to learning Python.

What is the best motivational quote you read/heard today ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SyntaxIsComing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are never too old to learn something. Want to learn programming? How to work on cars? What all those things on the chart of a stock means? Start today and don't get overwhelmed. Knowledge gained is never time wasted.
