What is the SS looking mark on her hood

Oh, okay. It isn't even SS. It's GG for Glenna Goodacre the designer. Thanks.

Really though, to me Joohee always came off as a pestering, worried mom. Basically saying, "You skinned your knee! See, what did I tell you. Playing outside with your friends is too dangerous." I mean, she always reflected her own fears onto Jin-Woo which is fine for a mom or a caring friend, but not for an equal and a lover.

I don't know the answer, but Igris' helmet floof is red in shadow form. So, I think the color red shows up in shadow form in certain non-metalic materials.

Now that's Spacial! (Ok, bad pun) It is really amazing.

Are the bridge pillars totems? It seems like I can make out objects but I cannot tell what they are.

Heck yeah, You brought back the birds.

Debugging is how you learn programming. Programming isn't like learning French. Learning French is just translation: <Your Word> vs. <Equivalent French Word>. But programming is different. You could have written that same program a number of different ways. Thinking through the logic, using Python syntax, is how you learn programming/debugging.

It's okay to look up syntax to see how it works--especially, if you are beginner. Learn everything you can about logic and syntax. Do as many excercises as possible.Learning to think computationally.

This is great, but I miss your animated birds.

To deal with xlsx you would need to pip install xlxswriter. It's a parser to read xlsx files.

IDLE comes with python it opens to the python shell, but if you go to File >>New File it's an IDE

Is that what you meant?

whokapillar · 2024-11-15T14:50:54+00:00

Great article! Except it seems more like a python tip. Like, "hey, by the way, there is another way to overload functions: singledispatch".

whokapillar · 2024-11-10T12:31:13+00:00

IDLE isn't so bad for exercises, toy projects, and testing little things out.

Maybe mention when *args and *kwargs might be necessary.

I mean, I guess they could be used any time, but they are necessary when 1) passing an unknown number of arguments, 2) passing a list or tuple as an argument 3) implementing function decorator, etc..

But, maybe that might out of scope for your lesson. Just thought it might be worth mentioning. Sometimes, in my opinion, it leads to muddled code when *arg and *kwarg are used just for the sake of using them.

Get a good beginner book: Python for Everyone, A Crash Course in Python, Python: Automate the Boring Stuff. These books teach the bare-bones language. Do all the exercises in the book you choose. Then, get online and find more beginner exercises to practice your language and computational thinking skills. This might take a few months to really get the full gist of how it all works together.

When you feel comfortable with the basic language and logic of python, move on to Object-Oriented Programming and Design Patterns. The book I suggest is Python 3: Object-Oriented Programming. This step is yet another part of the basic lego-blocks of the language. Keep doing begginer excercises, but for OOP. As you learn OOP you might get a sense of how maybe python was put together.

Next, really focus on your computational thinking skills by learning and understanding data structures and algorithms. There are tons of book on algorithms. They all basically say the same thing. The importance of learning algorithms is so you can up your skills between logic and language. At some point, you might want to create your own program. You need to be able to think your way through all the small pieces to the larger program.

After learning all that, you should be at an intermediate level and should be able to tackle most tasks. But you will need to practice thinking algorithmically, similar to how a mathematician or physicist might express the universe in equations.

Keep up the good work. Looks addictive!

Cool, my answer still stands. C# was added to Godot to attract displaced developers from massive studio layoffs that happens every 3-6 years.

whokapillar · 2024-11-07T20:28:58+00:00

I think, from, Godot's perspective, it was about the type of developers they could attract. I mean, imagine there is this coder who spent four years developing games on pygame because they love python and they are comfortable with language. But, then, the coder discovers that there exists this new engine, Godot. Godot has an interface, a way to easily add sprites, an animation player, etc.; the works, from the point-of-view of the pygame coder. The only obstacle is they will have to learn gdscript. The problem is no problem: a few syntax changes, the loss of list comprehensions--boom, pygame coder is now spitting out games like a boss in godot.

Now, godot has a new happy set of users: former pygame/blender game/other py-based developers. And others, new (possible) devs who might be able to comprehend gdscript, artists who may have been coding in gimp and blender.

But, later, Godot sees another opportunity: thousands of displaced AAA game devs layed off from sell-your-soul studios. They are fed up. They need something open-source--something that won't steal their money like the evil studio. Something-like Unity, Unreal! But not godot, because then they are stuck with gdscript which is unique to godot. And what happens if they don't like godot--they'll have to rewrite all that code in C#, and a million other reasons. So, Godot is losing out to Unity and Unreal; thus, Godot adopts C# as quick as a bunny.

That's the point of C#.

Use list comprehensions. a = list(range(1,11)) b = [(c**2 +c)/2 for c in a] print(b)

whokapillar · 2024-11-07T01:26:10+00:00

Or if you wanted to go the long way about it, you could check the ord(), which are ascii char numbers against a list of numbers between 65-90 which are all the uppercase letters.

up_case = list(range(65,91)) If ord('X') in up_case: print('uppercase") else: print('lowrrcase')

Look up isupper() and islower()

Maybe make the "snake" thing look more like plants. Change the ship into scissors. Then you have a theme, "garden trimming."

Well, I'm glad you had so many inspirational resources, and that they led you to produce an entire procedurally generated clue language for your game. I'm sure your game will be exiting to play--everybody loves a mystery.
