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.

You’re printing a hardcoded string and not the content of the variable

[waxen mountain]

uhh can u explain easier maybe?

im like

new new

to python

[ruby mural]

your for loop has a mistake, range(16), not range (16)

[waxen mountain]

alr let me test

[livid plank]

What I mean is that you called the function print and as argument you’re passing a string, specifically: password

If you want to print the content of a variable you should pass to print function that variable

[waxen mountain]

whats a string if i may ask?

[livid plank]

Without quotes

[ruby mural]

also, you're printing "password" on every iteration instead of adding the randomly chosen character to the password string

[waxen mountain]

same

[waxen mountain]

still dame

[livid plank]

‘password’ is a string

[safe portal]

they are correctly updating the variable, they're just printing the wrong thing

[livid plank]

A sequence of characters

[waxen mountain]

holy shit im sorry i have dyslexia and so many people are typing 😭

[ruby mural]

use print(password), remove the quotes

[waxen mountain]

us quoetes the blanks?

[ruby mural]

wdym?

[livid plank]

Explain why, not just give the answer

[unique dew]

password is the variable , whole 'password' is a string of letters

[waxen mountain]

what do u mean as quotes

the inbetweens?

like this

[unique dew]

basically ' '

[prime wharf]

You’ve to remove the indent of line 11 and instead of printing just the raw string ‘“password”’, remove the quotes to get the actual value of the ‘password variable.

‘print(password)’

[waxen mountain]

ohh

ok

sec

[ruby mural]

password = "1234"
print(password) # password gets substituted for the value inside of it, so this is similar to print("1234")```

[unique dew]

!e

password = "1234"
print(password)
print("password")

[surreal hinge]

:white_check_mark: Your 3.14 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | 1234
002 | password

[ruby mural]

there you go!

[waxen mountain]

but whys there so many tho

like

stacking up

[unique dew]

You're printing it inside the for loop during each iteration

[ruby mural]

because your printing is part of the for loop, remove the leading spaces before the print line

[waxen mountain]

wdym with loop

[unique dew]

if you want it to print once you've to unindent it.

[waxen mountain]

the blank spaces?

[ruby mural]

yep

[unique dew]

Do you understand what you're writing?

[livid plank]

From where you taken this code ?

[ruby mural]

nope, check that last line

[waxen mountain]

tiktok but im just tryna learn by videos

[unique dew]

Can you please atleast ask him if he understands before just telling him the solutions.

[livid plank]

!res I suggest you to take a Python course from here

Resources

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

[unique dew]

First learn what is a for loop you may check the resources

[thorn coral]

leave out the ' '

[unique dew]

You cannot expect to learn coding by doing random changes to code

Without understanding what they're doing.

[ruby mural]

almost there, I'll have you figure out the fix yourself, do you understand how to make for loops

[livid plank]

And especially forget TikTok to learn coding

[waxen mountain]

i know like a little bit but im trying to learn by trying

[livid plank]

It’s better to follow a proper course

[ruby mural]

you wanna add a randomly chosen character to the password string, then print the full result once

[ruby mural]

you're getting off topic

[unique dew]

If you're trying to learn by trying know what the code is doing.

[waxen mountain]

can u check pm rq

[unique dew]

If you don't understand what every line of your code is doing there's no point.

[livid plank]

I’m not going off topic since OP think to learn coding by viewing TikTok

[thorn coral]

you're missing indentation

[waxen mountain]

whats indentarion if i may ask

[unique dew]

That's why We're saying first learn the concepts

You're not gonna learn by doing if you don't know theory at all.

[thorn coral]

this is something you have to learn.

[unique dew]

Follow One of The Resources Diligently in

[unique dew]

Non structed learning won't help and you'll be more confused.

[thorn coral]

watch a small tutorial on youtube on how to do some basic loops and you'll know what indentation is. takes only 5 mins

[livid plank]

You wouldn’t understand our explanations since you have 0 knowledge about it

[prime wharf]

I’m mentioning you in the #python-discussion channel for resources

[waxen mountain]

thx

[unique dew]

Exactly, @waxen mountain do you know what's a string what's an integer , what are for loops?

[waxen mountain]

chill bro im just fucking asking for help since im trying to learn bro

i have 0 knowledge about any languages now what

[livid plank]

And we are giving you our help, we are saying to you to follow a proper course about programming in Python

[waxen mountain]

alr u told me 5 times before i get it

[kindred sphinx]

you are trying to learn how to code or learn python?

[waxen mountain]

lowk both but python is the easiest one to start with right?

[thorn coral]

yes

[kindred sphinx]

✅

[unique dew]

Yes

[kindred sphinx]

btw have your focus more on the logic stuff in programming rather than the nuances of python

[waxen mountain]

wdym with nuances

[unique dew]

Let's not overwhelm them

😭

[livid plank]

What ?

[kindred sphinx]

you will know one day when coding in another language

[thorn coral]

a password generator is a good beginner project.
you probably started learning python not too long ago. it is better to figure out stuff by yourself instead of directly asking for help.

[livid plank]

You could figure out stuff by yourself when you have at least a foundations knowledge
