Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

somoene help my boy out 🙏

[mortal lintel]

You need to close after you're done with each file's operations, i.e. where you do, but also before the second and third open()

But really, you should just use with.

w3schools is a pretty terrible resource when it comes to teaching best practices.

[faint walrus]

I already paid them 250 dollars and they aren't responding for a refund😭

[faint walrus]

def main():
    # Write your code here
    c = open('example.txt', 'x')
    c.close()
    c = open('example.txt', 'a')
    c.write('Python file handling is easy!')
    c.close()
    c = open('example.txt', 'rt')
    print(c.read())
    c.close()
    pass

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

now its like this

and it still didnt check anything else

it said I need to read and verify it

could it be something with that?

@high ingot help me

[high ingot]

I dont even know how to type hello world 😭 But ill get ppl to help u igu

[gusty bane]

I'd suggest not falling for the sunk cost fallacy and just moving on to better resources in hopes you get a refund, but if not... well, there are still better resources out there

!resources is where you can look (there are paid options there too... but there are a ton of free resources listed there too), it's a curated list, so all of the resources on there should be good

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[faint walrus]

what would recommend for a certificate?

[gusty bane]

as far as I can tell certificates are rather worthless

though that's a question better suited for #career-advice

just build projects

[faint walrus]

I would but I only know python at a beginner level

[gusty bane]

my point was more that you don't need a certificate

if you want a certificate, a university degree might be worthwhile

[faint walrus]

Im very far from that and thought that getting certificates would be good thing to earn on the side till I get to that point

I get what you mean, I think that still a good way to track my progress

[gusty bane]

well, it's certainly not a good thing if it costs you $250

[faint walrus]

and already paid for it

[high ingot]

Yo u think i can steal matiis once ur done tkd 😭

[faint walrus]

and they are not responding for a refund

in over 10 days

[faint walrus]

sure buddy😉

[gusty bane]

again, don't fall for the sunk cost fallacy, it doesn't matter that you paid for it, you don't have to keep using it

[high ingot]
