dim wadi
could you possibly help
dim wadi
handle_navigator_menu()
i havent learnt it]
i cant use it..
some guy made me this code bc i got midterms
gleaming tinsel
i havent learnt it]
so, u just want an explanation ?
gleaming tinsel
so, can't use match case ?
dim wadi
and i have not learnt if name == "main": also
dim wadi
so, can't use `match` `case` ?
yess
gleaming tinsel
match case in that .. case.. is just an exact replacement of a bunch of if elif statements
dim wadi
we need to do the bunch of elif statements haha
gleaming tinsel
co, case "1" is basically comparing match var like if var == "1"
dim wadi
we cant do case and these stuff if havent learnt it
we havent learnt var
want me to show you how the code should run?
gleaming tinsel
var is just any variable name
dim wadi
`var` is just any variable name
yeah we did learn variables
gleaming tinsel
def handle_resolutions():
choice = print_resolutions_menu()
match choice:
case "1": handle_set_resolutions()
case "2": handle_update_resolutions()
case "3": handle_delete_resolutions()
case "4": handle_print_resolutions()
case "5": print("Returning to New Year Navigator...")
case _:
print("Invalid input! Please choose a valid option (1-5).")
handle_resolutions()
so in this case
dim wadi
what even is case
gleaming tinsel
match choice means... you're comparing the choice variable
case "1" compares it with "1"
case "2" compares it with "2"
etc
dim wadi
can we switch these with anything else
gleaming tinsel
of course, as i said
u can just make it like
if choice == "1":
handle_set...
elif choice == "2":
handle_update...
etc
dim wadi
im confusedddd
dim wadi
choice = print_navigator()
match choice:
case "1": handle_reflection()
case "2": handle_resolutions()
case "3": handle_challenge()
case "4":
print("Exiting the New Year Navigator.")
exit(0)
case _:
print("Invalid input! Please choose a valid option (1-4).")
handle_navigator_menu()
if __name__ == "__main__":
month = input("Enter the current month (numeric): ")
day = input("Enter the current day (numeric): ")
if not (month.isnumeric() and day.isnumeric()):
print("Dates must be numeric values.")
exit(0)
month, day = int(month), int(day)
if not (1 <= month <= 12 and 1 <= day <= 31):
print("Invalid date! Please enter a valid one.")
exit(0)
remaining_days = days_until_new_year(month, day)
print(f"\nThere are {remaining_days} days left until the New Year!\n")
print("Time to reflect and set goals!" if remaining_days < 30 else "Plenty of time to plan ahead!")
while True:
handle_navigator_menu()```Hey @dim wadi!
dim wadi
this is the code
so i do
if choice == "1":
handle_set
elif choice == "2":
handle_update
if choice == "2":
handle_set
elif choice == "3":
handle_update
like this??
gleaming tinsel
im confusedddd
well, match var takes a variable (let's call it var)
and then executes case which... matches the var
dim wadi
can you do it if possible and explain
if thats fine
as long as you explain bc i gotta understand
gleaming tinsel
like this??
sort of, just don't forget that you need to actually call those functions with ()
handle_set()
etc
dim wadi
sort of, just don't forget that you need to actually call those functions with `...
call them with what
one sec
gleaming tinsel
call them with what
well, when you have a function
like print
if you actually want to EXECUTE it (and executing a function is called "calling" a function)
you use () right after the name
so its print("hi")
or print()
same goes for handle_set(), handle_update(), ...
gleaming tinsel
if choice == "1":
handle_set
elif choice == "2":
handle_update
if choice...
as for the if elif - this is exactly like that
its just that you use else: instead of case _:
gleaming tinsel
```def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
match choice:...
and __name__ == "__main__" is completely unecessary - you can just get rid of that if
i can explain what it does if you want
dim wadi
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
if choice == "1":
handle_reflection()
elif choice == "2":
handle_resolutions()
elif choice == "3":
handle_challenge()
elif choice == "4":
print("Exiting the New Year Navigator.")
exit(0)
else:
print("Invalid input! Please choose a valid option (1-4).")
handle_navigator_menu()
misty idolBOT
Hey @dim wadi!
gleaming tinsel
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
if choice == "1"...
exactly!!
dim wadi
sorry for ping
okay
what about handle+navoigator
what should i do
i havemnt learn that
gleaming tinsel
what about handle+navoigator
there's also a match case ?
cuz i think i've seen more than one place with it
gleaming tinsel
you mean this right
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
match choice:
case "1": handle_reflection()
case "2": handle_resolutions()
case "3": handle_challenge()
case "4":
print("Exiting the New Year Navigator.")
exit(0)
case _:
print("Invalid input! Please choose a valid option (1-4).")
handle_navigator_menu()
or
something else?
gleaming tinsel
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
if choice == "1"...
ah wait that's what you wrote
dim wadi
haha
yeah but
when you look at like
wait
so like this is the thing
we cant make our assignment
using things in python
we havent learnt
you know
gleaming tinsel
yeah, i get it
gleaming tinsel
handle_navigator_menu()
yeah, we fixed that
gleaming tinsel
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
if choice == "1"...
^
gleaming tinsel
one second, i'll be afk for a second
dim wadi
okay
i havent, a guy made me the code because i was studying for midterms
i cant use handle_navigator_menu
or he will fail me
gleaming tinsel
i cant use handle_navigator_menu
you wrote this right now:
def handle_navigator_menu():
choice = print_navigator()
if choice == "1":
handle_reflection()
elif choice == "2":
handle_resolutions()
elif choice == "3":
handle_challenge()
elif choice == "4":
print("Exiting the New Year Navigator.")
exit(0)
else:
print("Invalid input! Please choose a valid option (1-4).")
handle_navigator_menu()
we are in introduction to programming
gleaming tinsel
maybe he can't... i just don't really understand what exactly he can't use or what exactly he's asking for 😅
gleaming tinsel
so like i can change the function name
well, yeah
as long as you also will call it with a new name
dim wadi
how can i do that
gleaming tinsel
how can i do that
like, if you take this code:
def my_function():
print('hello')
my_function()
if you will replace my_function in the def, but won't do it down below, code won't work.
if you're using visual studio code or some sort of an editor like that
you can select the text (the function name)
then press ctrl f
and in "replace" write what you want to replace it with
then "replace all"
(is that vscode with that screenshot extension?)
@dim wadi soo... need anymore help? 😅 i'll have to go really soon
gleaming tinsel
can we call
not now, i'm at work.. i'll be back home in about an 1 hour 30 mins
gleaming tinsel
aw
dim wadi
whats what you say man...
gleaming tinsel
if __name__ == '__main__': does nothing for that program
dim wadi
look
gleaming tinsel
so you can just
gleaming tinsel
yeah
dim wadi
delete right
gleaming tinsel
you can just delete the if and put the code down 4 spaces
if __name__ == "__main__":
month = input("Enter the current month (numeric): ")
day = input("Enter the current day (numeric): ")
...
and instead
month = input("Enter the current month (numeric): ")
day = input("Enter the current day (numeric): ")
...
if you want, i can explain what exactly it does, but thats if you want
dim wadi
if you want, i can explain what exactly it does, but thats if you want
no time
dim wadi
what is all thatt
gleaming tinsel
well, you know what int() does?
dim wadi
integer
gleaming tinsel
yeah, converts a string (text) to a an integer (number)
choice is this:
choice = input("Enter which resolution to delete (1-5): ")
yrah but whats idx
dim wadi
look
gleaming tinsel
then resolutions[idx] = ""
it takes the list (resolutions) and sets the item at position idx to ""
gleaming tinsel
hmm ...
dim wadi
so like i want the code simple
gleaming tinsel
what the hell is q3
dim wadi
now we learnt loop\
so we can use it
question 3
let me show you last code
this is how simple my last code was
assignment
i need it as simple as this
i cant use too much simple stuff
gleaming tinsel
just for this?
dim wadi
bc if i havent learnt something he does - too much
gleaming tinsel
for i in range(1, 11):
print(f"{num1} X {i} = {num1 * i} - {num2} X {i} = {num2 * i}")
nah bro imagine typing this out manually 😭
dim wadi
i swear
can you possibly do the code?
like my code kis already done
but like
make it simple?
gleaming tinsel
i mean.. looks simple to me... i have no idea what you've learned 😅
but this
resolutions[:] = ["" for _ in resolutions]
pretty sure you dont have idea what that is
and haven't learned
gleaming tinsel
wait... who wrote that code 💀
dim wadi
yes
gleaming tinsel
```py
resolutions[:] = ["" for _ in resolutions]
```
though, wait, i get it... but well.
i guess you could write a normal for loop instead
you know how list[index] = ... sets an item at an index, right?
well
you could just iterate through indexes of resolutions, and set it all to "" manually
for index in range(len(resolutions)):
resolutions[index] = ""
i hope you've learned about len(), right?
it gives you the amount of items in a collection (in this case a list)
gleaming tinsel
so let's assume len(resolutions) is 5, then we have range(5)
which gives you index = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
gleaming tinsel
😭
dim wadi
too much assignments
why the fuck do universities give assignments when we got midterms next week???
SOmeone explain?
gleaming tinsel
it can be a lot if you're going through it too quickly...
but if those are assignments then, well... can't do anything
i mean, he probably lacks the overall understanding of how the code even runs, therefore doesn't have a good idea of what most lines even do
it gets quite some learning and quite some time to get used to those ideas, though depends on a person
gleaming tinsel
is from chatgpt
well, even a person can
chatgpt code has silly comments in the code, and sometimes is just doing weird things
drowsy dagger
If this is for an assignment you should not be using AI or making others code for you. Unless the professor explicitly says you can. That is called cheating
gleaming tinsel
@dim wadi well, have to go. Wish you luck
dim wadi
If this is for an assignment you should not be using AI or making others code fo...
leave me alone
no one told the doctor to make a assignment during midterms
and he still wants to make another assignment as well tomorrow
professor*
can you please check if its AI?
the code
i know man it stresses me out.
what comments
can you change them and make them 0% AI detectable
if possible
anything man
plz
im dying
i got an exam tomorrow i wanna study for
calculus
he gave us 1 week to do the assignment
i did prepare for calculus
all thats left is derivatives
wait
by descriptions
you mean this?
"Write down three things you're grateful for.",
"Spend 5 minutes reflecting on the past year.",
"Think about one new skill you want to learn.",
"Share a New Year's wish with a friend.",
"Write a letter to yourself for next year."
oh nvm
