Is there any 'standard' I should use
Handing in my work in a zipped file with dictionary.txt inside the file with the python code file.

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.

Formatting code on Discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

When posting code, post it as text.

#

Not as an image.

worthy igloo
#

This screen shot is fine...

desert horizon
#

It is not the entirety of the code.

#

Even were it so, text is preferred.

#

i dont know what to call it, the bit where the name of the file is

#

like the path

#

if they are to download the file and just run straight away which would i need to put there, just dictionary.txt?

worthy igloo
#

Relative path makes sense if you're turning it in like that

whole solstice
#

./ needed or no?

#

or just the name

worthy igloo
#

No

whole solstice
#

just the name ye?

worthy igloo
#

Correct

#

You can test that too ...

whole solstice
#

ty just trying to not have a reason for them to take easy marks

worthy igloo
#

Can you post the PDF?

whole solstice
#

just not the run code button

#

cant send pdf

worthy igloo
#

That you can screenshot

#

It's dangerous to open random PDFs from Internet strangers 🙂

whole solstice
#

ah

#

i ss now

worthy igloo
#

Do you have the rest of the game? Or just the file reading part?

whole solstice
#

i got the reset ill send now

desert horizon
#

For your consideration, random.choice.

#

Also, if you don't have to load up a file multiple times, don't.

#

Load it once.

Just reading the assignment screenshot, it sounds like they will be providing a 'dictionary.txt` for you. So I would not expect to submit your own.

whole solstice

#

!e py import random choices = 'Apples', 'Pears', 'Bananas' choice = random.choice(choices) print(choice)

harsh cargoBOT
whole solstice
#

oh instead of chosing random line

desert horizon
#

!e py text = '''Apples Oranges Bananas Pears''' result = text.splitlines() print(result)

# whole solstice yea i have it

I particularly mean: don't submit it with your code. Also, they might choose to run your code against a different dictionary file as a test.

whole solstice
#

yea after re reading it
