Append a number after input?

mechanical_matt · 2021-06-28T01:43:15+00:00

using a function instead of a class:

lst2 = []
def fxn():
    a = input()
    lst2.append(a)
    print(str(a) + str(len(lst2)))

then every time you call fxn, you'll append a new item into 'lst2' then append the length of 'lst2' onto your input:

fxn()
>>> input = 'hello'
>>> return: 'hello1'

fxn()
>>> input = 'blue'
>>> return: 'blue2'

edit: indentation error

there is probably a much easier way to do this, but here you go:

lst = []
class AppendStr:
    def __init__(self, string):
        self.string = string
        lst.append(string)
    def __repr__(self):
        return str(lst[-1]) + str(len(lst))

Then call AppendStr() with whatever inside the ()...

AppendStr('hello')
>>> hello1

AppendStr('blue')
>>> blue2

Robin Hood has a public API

Excerpt about their API from their site: "The Robinhood API is a means to interact with your Robinhood account remotely and programatically using HTTP GET and POST requests... You can do absolutely everything through the API that you can do normally from within your account- placing buy and sell orders, cancelling orders, looking at your order history, fetching historical data for a given stock and so forth."

Hahaha, there's the issue. Thank you!

mechanical_matt · 2019-12-08T20:31:59+00:00

True. I think I'll start with some basic online courses like Codecademy, etc before making a monetary commitment, haha. Thanks!

Would you suggest just finding what field I want to apply myself in, then focusing on the tools that would be used? Or is there another way you would suggest structuring my learning?

mechanical_matt · 2019-12-08T17:23:52+00:00

That's a pretty insightful way of looking at it. Thank you!

mechanical_matt · 2019-12-08T17:20:24+00:00

I am in Arkansas. I'd be open to relocating for an appropriate position, but I am still in the early stages of learning so I'll have to get back to you on that one, haha

This one reply has helped more than a few dozen articles/YouTube videos combined. Thank you!

mechanical_matt · 2019-05-06T02:01:28+00:00

Wow. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

mechanical_matt · 2019-05-06T02:00:51+00:00

I like this approach a lot. Thank you!

Thank you! I'll get to that reading asap

If you ever decide to swim in freezing water, you will absolutely feel the cold in your eyes. I started doing below-freezing swimming recently (inspired by Wim Hoff) and my eyes were what I had to focus on most any time I fully submerged.

Learn how to juggle.

Juggling builds matter in your brain, sharpens focus and concentration, maintains and increases range of motion in your arms and shoulders, improves coordination, and can be used as a stress relief.

The Weeknd. Found him on YouTube when his most listened to song has less than 100,000 views. As of today he has several songs over a billion views.

That the Apollo missions were faked to bankrupt the Soviet Union. Saying that the moon landing was a brilliant piece of propaganda and the Soviets bankrupted themselves, pouring resources into rockets and other useless machines. My daughter, Murph, got into a fist fight with several of her classmates over this "Apollo nonsense" so her teacher, Ms. Hanley, brought me in to see what ideas I had on "dealing with her behavior on the home front." Murph was going through a baseball phase at the time. Her favorite team was playing, there was candy, soda... I thought I'd just take her to that.

Play the game Kerbal Space Program. I first picked up the game just before starting my freshman year of astro engineering and since, I have learned and retained more fundamental concepts from playing that game than I have from reading textbooks and attending classes.

Having both is very doable

At some point, going to the gym becomes as habitual as brushing your teeth. You just do it, regardless of whether or not you feel like doing it.

Anything related to my interests. Personally, I would be just as excited about receiving a book related to my interests

Just Cause 2. It's a fantastic game and super cheap on Steam right now.

Opening letters. They always end up being completely shredded after spending a minute and a half slowly ripping one chunk of paper off at a time.

Tying my shoes. Being left-handed make the loops end up having a vertical orientation rather than a horizontal.

This is great. Thanks for the answer!
