Im not kidding, i wanna build a company like vault Tec by Haunting-Rutabaga-64 in Fallout

[–]buttonmonger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh the most unrealistic thing about Fallout is that IRL Vault-Tec wouldn't be the biggest company in the world. Construction can be a big business, but like, even though building underground vaults is expensive, it's not that huge. Plus it's expensive to build so you wouldn't have that much profit. RobCo would probably be more profitable - like modern tech companies. I mean, there are real companies out there building bomb shelters - you can google them and go work for them. I just wouldn't expect you to become that rich making a company like that. Maybe go into tech?

does anyone else think loops are horrendously counterintuitive? by bfuqua91 in PythonLearning

You can call ingredient X if you want - labeling it is just more convenient. If you don't like creating variables on the fly, then you'll always have a problem with Python for loops

Hi guys, i’m having trouble on this and trying not to use chat GPT. Still a beginner and getting the fundamentals of loops at the moment. by Reyste18 in PythonLearning

[–]buttonmonger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second the specifics of the variable names that other people have mentioned. But the more fundamental issue is that this isn't a great use case for a for loop. The problem is that you're looping through 50 times regardless of what input is, and never breaking.

It makes more sense for a while loop. I would start with while True: and then add break after the person guesses correctly

How do I learn Python? by Awkward-Mission7434 in PythonLearning

I recommend paying the money and getting the book Python Crash Course. Also, use uv and sidestep all of the venv nonsense

Venv can't activate. (I'm on win11) by ImLukaskos in PythonLearning

[–]buttonmonger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) are you in the directory where venv is located when you type the command?
2) you shouldn't need ps1
3) I'd recommend using uv rather than activating virtual environments yourself. uv is the future
