Good morning guys, trying to learn python but my system is not functional for now so i just installed pyroid 3 on my Android device. But am having issues running scripts on it. After typing on my note editor and I try to run it, t tells me program finished. Someone should help pls

Have you resolved this.
You can use Qpython3 instead.
And since it didn't show any error then probably your code isn't meant to return or print out anything.

Anas09:
Yeah right. I see you are being deliberately dishonest. You think by assumptions you can get anyway?

"dishonest"?
Seriously... what makes that statement dishonest?

I wish i studied anything science related. And if you are so sure 4everGod is a pig seller, you can move to arrest him and see to it that he is prosecuted accordingly, failure to do so will be a shame on your part.

This is either a comprehension issue or you are just being dishonest with yourself.

I should prove that you didn't read that thread to the end, or i should prove that 4everGod indeed committed the crime you stupidly insist he did? Did you forget that i called you out. as a matter if fact, i screamed at you to come out and talk about it, did you? You were in that thread, but avoided responding to me.

You want me to prove that you lied? Exhumed the thread you accused him in let's go through it again. Liars have their place in the Lake of fire. Oh wait, you are on your way there if you don't repent.

You ran off like a coward. As much as i'm busy, exhume that thread and i will make out time to go through it.

Woman, can you show me these posts you speak of.
I dare you.
What the fu(k are you talking about?
Called me out on what?, when?

You have no case boy, all you have is speculation. I stopped taking you serious when you speculated that i am Spacetacular. Hahahahahaha. I wish. Gerarahia.

Again i can't remember this. When did i make this speculation?
Are you having memory slips?

The only false speculation similar to this that i made was when i thought 4evergod was EmmanyStone and OtemAtum said you were the one.
Aside from that, i can't remember what you talking about. And i'm pretty sure i have not posted much on this issue as i've not been very active on NL for a while so wtf u saying.

Oh Pulissssss, spare me the rhetorics. Kid, you respected 4everGod until you caught him stealing from your fathers yam barn abi? Or you actually have facts that he indeed stole abi? Who cares who you respect or not? Who your respect epp. Abeg gerrauut.

Boy, i have nothing to prove to you or anyone for that matter. If you are sure he is guilty (Of what exactly?) You can do your worst. I have no respect for talkers, act like a man and do something about it.

Look at this little boy, you and i who brought up this case? If i didn't read those two threads to end, i won't have the confidence i have. But, you and lepasharon on the other hand only wants to be right and justify your atheistic/satanic stances that a Christian is also a sinner like you. Oh, but, that is not the same thing, for you see, even if he did what you accuse him of, he has an advocate he can run to, but you? Sorry, satan can not help you, rather, he'd laugh at you.

Now, for the last time Gerauuuut, except when next you quote me, it'll be worth my while.

I would ignore this one.

budaatum:
Says who? Haven't they shown enough stupidity by seeing me as I see fish and intending to have me as dinner? Do they behave as some humans do and 'eat' their companions too?

In fact, I think you are now insulting fish! If fish had my level of intelligence, little as it may be, do you think fish would not get a gun and shoot me even if just because I am so stupid to consider it as dinner in the first place?

I rhetorically bet you they treat us like we treat chicken! And if fish or chicken could, it too would get a gun and shoot me.

Hmmm, deep.
The best way, to protect ourselves if they see us as fish, is really to fight back.

Mcxavier:
My main reason for asking is because I'm finding it difficult to stay in touch with topics and replies. Perhaps you guys can advise me. Just imagine ever since I started this thread since march it now I'm just seeing the replies you guys have made

You can bookmark Nairaland on your browser so you can see and click it more often.

I don't use nairaland mobile so i don't know how it works, but it's supposed to give notifications else why build it.

budaatum:
Yes, I have seen chickens and lions decoding human language.

My grandma kept chickens and named every single one of them. When she calls one to receive food, the others know its not their turn.

There's a circus I went to when I was a child. The ring master asked the lion if it was hungry, and the lion nodded its head. He then told the lion to open its mouth, which it did, and he put his head in it and the lion shut its mouth. After a short period, the ringmaster raised its hand, and the lion opened its mouth, released the man's head, gave out a very loud roar, and we all cheered in amazement that the lion did not eat the ringmaster.

Dogs survive very well in the wild without human interaction!

All living things evolve their 'brains'!

I think you think way too highly of humans, or too lowly of the "form of life more powerful and intelligent than our own" that considers you as dinner!

I can't help wonder why Africans were unable to convince those who enslaved them not to. Is it because the Africans hadn't evolved at the time and were "smellier, shorter, and far less intelligent than" the enslavers? Or perhaps the enslavers themselves were "smellier, shorter, and far less intelligent than" those they enslaved? Or don't you consider enslaving a person to be similar to my eating fish?

Your point holds though. We eventually were "able to convince those far more intelligent aliens that we're a species capable of serving them, at the very least" I suppose, or perhaps they knew we could serve them to begin with, I can't help but wonder.

Where was this circus?
That is cool.

Jenifa123:
I'll be expecting d review...

So sorry.
I've not been on NL or friendzone for a while.

Fz mobile is cool.

Just sent you a msg on Fz.

Anas09:
Are you permitted to be dishonest because you are an atheist or you are just doing it deliberately?

You are one person who dug up an old thread about some guy calling 4everGod a fraud. Maybe you thought people were too lazy to read through and see if the accusations were valid, but i followed that thread to the end and discovered it was false accusation because the said guy ran off and later deactivated when the matter involved the law in Abuja. You are a crooked fellow, because when i called you out to talk about it, you ran off.

The Next accusation came with some guy again mentioning him in a case in the property section connecting him with another women based in the U.S who defrauded some people. A link was pasted, again, i took time to read the thread which ran into so many pages, only to discover it was all noise.

Those who even accused him from the beginning, later called on him to help bring out modalities to make the said woman refund the money she had in her possession. He brought the Woman's husband a white man into the matter.

Before i went into reading that thread. i promised to apologize to you guys if i called you liars and defamers wrongly. When i was done, i called you, Lepasharon, the guy who dropped the link, hopefullandlord and Martins to see where ForeverGod was a thieve, you all ran off. But were just satisfied with just the noise.

He was not here to defend himself, so i did the investigations and discovered malignity on your own part. Shame

I discovered someone like Lepasharon didn't even read that thread to the middle, she just ran off shouting thief thief, when the same person she was calling thief was the one who was called to solve the matter later.

As for you, the thread you dropped, you didn't read it to the end you'd have seen that the guy who brought about the accusation ran off when the case got really serious. But, because you wanted to defame and blacklist a Christian, you didn't care whether or not your defamations were true, till today you are still holding on that defamation.

I like how the world works, you just sowed a seed which will germinate to your account. This has nothing to do with your creed. Someone shall defame you. It shall be so real that everyone around you shall spit at you. The stench shall trail you for life as no one will believe you.

It won't happen now. You shall grow up, rise very high in your life endeavour, you shall be known far and near, then you shall reap what you have sown here, you will remember your contributions here. Mark my words. I said this to you before, i'm repeating myself.

I stood for 4evergod the same way i wld stand for you if someone tried to defame you. It's satanic to do what you guys did and are still doing.

Oh, wait, satan works better with blackmail. When he is boxed into a corner, he uses blackmails.

Wow, what a honest set of people you and 4evergod are.
So honest that you guys created alternate personalities and one all of a sudden became a pig farmer and i think you became a doctor or something. So honest; i see.

Can you prove this: "As for you, the thread you dropped, you didn't read it to the end you'd have seen that the guy who brought about the accusation ran off when the case got really serious."
Which thread are you talking about?
Who ran off?
4evergod that was initially engaging, and then came as bbfever & some weird alternate from Germany if i can remember well(which he denied), and was missing in action for weeks(even uncle felixomor was anxiously waiting for his return and was overwhelmed when an imposter came) before coming with a new personality(butterflyleo)?

Woman, i respected 4evergod; i don't want to go into this cos i'm busy, but if you can prove he is innocent and not just vague posts(or bringing out past cases). Then i'd send him a mail and tender my apologies.

winner01:
No, I'm not, I'm simply seeking to know if there's another model you can compare the human body with.

Mr man.
You know simple malaria drugs you take is tweaking that "yahweh inspired model" to be "better".

Genetic engineering research to eliminate the weaknesses of the "yahweh inspired" model is in progress and achievements have been made for some decades now.

I guess some humans are smart enough to make your "perfect model" stronger and better for most of you to have the strength to come here and type this.

But hey, Yahweh's model is the perfect one, in some distorted imaginations.

NaHiim:
@4kings
You seem to be a rockster in this field. I think I can use some help here.

Nah, but i hope i get there someday.

**Can you please send me PDFs to start learning ML and AI
I kinda know how backpropagational ANNs work to accomplish stuffs like image recognition using stochastic gradient descent algorithm bla bla bla. But its all theory men.

Here are couple pdfs for various ml algorithms(though heavily theoretical/mathematical): https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-867-machine-learning-fall-2006/lecture-notes/ or just use the search bar on MIT OpencourseWare to check for ML techniques lectures.

I'm not good at recommending pdfs, cos i have limited source i look out for when i need to learn something. SoftEng or Darive can give you some sources.

But do you know how to program?
If you do then implement what you've learnt.
Start with libraries before going deeper.

**Can you mentor me over WhatsApp

We could mentor ourselves here as SoftEng indicated.
I normally get lost out of social media(apart from mails and google hangout) when i have serious projects or jobs to implement, so i might not be very active some times.

Don't mind how the thread is, it's because members are very busy, raymod170 and wane are busy with school, SOftEng not sure but apparently busy etc. But we are approaching summer holiday soon, so this thread would come back to life.

In the mean time you could share your progress and questions, and hopefully someone would engage you(i'll try to be active also )

Gideonbabs:
Hi Guys, glad i came across this while i was perusing the internet, i read through the threads and i feel in good hands/company. I'm undergoing a research on Speech Recognition. Specifically i'm trying to apply Machine learning Algorithms to speech recognition of Native Nigerian Languages. I am new to the concept of Machine learning, and i have undergone preliminary research on this area. Having read good number of literature i have an idea of what people are doing relating to my work. i know some gurus are here, and i will appreciate it if we can throw light on this. I just stated the research, so I AM CURIOUS TO KNOW IF MY IDEA IS POSSIBLE,THE CHALLENGES I HAVE TO TACKLE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN, AND POSSIBLY HOW TO GO ABOUT THE RESEARCH FASTER. I also just signed up on Nairaland for this purpose.Soliciting contributions please.

I Want to work with Python on this

You should search google scholars, researchgate, arxiv etc for similar resaearch implementations done by others.

I know of a lecturer in LAUTECH that implemented Yoruba Accent recognition and a lecturer in CU that did igbo speech recognition; and i'm sure there are many others.
You could check elsevier, researchgate or google scholars for their papers and others to see the techniques they used for their implementation and how you can improve on them.

Moreover as a beginner, you could start with a basic implementaion like using the filters(MFCC), HMM and classifying with simple multilayer perceptron or SVM on your dataset or just training it raw with CNN(this will be very bad but a start to see errors and how to tackle them).

I'm sure the code template for this should be on github or you could get them with google search(i have some implementations somewhere in my cloud storage or harddrive(been a while since i touched them), though i've not gone far). Just make up your dataset and plug and run to see your starting result.

Then implement various techniques gotten from research papers to improve on it(this is were you actually need to understand the techniques cos plug and play libraries might not help you out).
After you've used code templates(again i'm sure you can get them on github). To improve your performance read research papers implement on them on your data.

Anyways, i'm assuming you've got the dataset for this; if not start making one or contact some Nigerian researchers you meet on ResearchGate, Google scholars etc to help you out with their data.

I also intend on working on this(a somewhat similar project), but that would be later when i got the time(would get in touch with you then).

Holy moly.
I don almost forget this thread ooo.
Someone mailed me; Tunagy ?

Anyways, what's up guys, seems everyone has been equally busy (i have; had some objectives to meet up with for the last 3 weeks).
The last time this thread was really active was during december holiday, na wa ooo.

Even SoftEng hasn't logged in for a while, seems he is very very busy.

Would continue the tutorial, once i clear some stuff off my table.

If we were to one day encounter a form of life more powerful and intelligent than our own, and it regarded us as we regard fish, what would be our argument against being eaten? - Jonathan Safran Foer

When an Ibo neighbour would accommodate a Yoruba neighbour's visitor from village before he comes back from work.

Meaning?

This is bad...

D34lw4p:
Yes

Ok would try it out, I've registered already.
Needed assurance that it works.

Very useful info.
Thanks.

@ diordaves how did it turn out?

It's more difficult than that, unless she is a good hacker(which I highly doubt), then you're safe.

Donald3d:
Hi, folks
I did the first stage of the name search with #500 online and the name was turned down, I didi a public search before choosing that name, so I made sure there were no similar names anywhere , and the application was disapproved
The reason was simply


Mind you the only similarity in the name I chose and this one is just "digi" , the other part is totally different , not even close in meaning or anything like that , what does please qualify 2nd option mean ?

Thanks in advance guys .

Were you able to resolve this?

ndiuel:
Try Paystack. B4 anyone picks up his/her phone to pour frustrations from their frustrated soul on me, do well to remember I said "TRY". Thank you.

Lol wetin na...
Is that a bad suggestion?

D34lw4p:
www.jusibe.com

This is what I'm looking for and it's very cheap.
But have you used it before?

AnonyNymous:
I did man, and he never even mentioned the word 'lazy'. A lot of people seem to be convinced that he did, though. He also mentioned that a lot of our youths haven't been to school and that's very true. Social media is dangerous.

Believe very dangerous.
That wasn't even the focus of his message.

The so-called hardworking youths didn't bother verifying the news but bought into false propaganda.

Anyways, I still think Buhari isn't well connected to the people, though that's the job of the LGA but they don't seem to be accountable for anything.

AnonyNymous:
The funny thing is that he might not even have any idea about the backlash his statement generated. We can all pretend there's no iota of truth in it but there actually is. I guess its the presentation, and how he did so that was wrong. Time and place. His handlers would probably shield all the bad news from him and he'd think all is well and fine though. That's something that's really messed up this administration- they're out of touch with Nigerians and the people representing them are doing a horrible job. A lot of people criticise Trump about tweeting all the time. . .but his connection to social media is a plus.

@bolded very true.
But did you watch the video?

Maliki001:

Tech is ruling already.

This is old news and was in 2016.

wane01:
I checked the school's homepage .. courses cost start from about 15k USD ..

What course is that?

Anyways, i applied for Audio processing signal for music application and Game theory and it's free.
Though i just found the site not long ago, so i've not explored enough, since i'm based in MIT OpenCourseWare. It actually uses the Coursera platform.

Usually most online courses are taught for free and sometimes require fee only when you want to get certificates, but i have not seen one that expensive apart from Msc courses though.

The advanced matlab course in the homepage currently is also free, what course did you click on?

Funny.
Though Nigerians are generally not lazy and also not generally hardworking.

AnonyNymous:
I personally find your progress amazing. It baffles me how you were able to sort of 'start afresh' and get so good at this stuff. . .you'd told me you studied Accounting before but I just had to confirm that I got that right because nobody would believe that when they hear you speak about this programming stuff.

I hated Accounting in school.
So i was curious on what i could learn online, started with 3d modelling, even tried studying and talking about physics with my roommate and brother, then moved to normal programming before delving to Machine Learning.
I felt i had time to learn more, i would actually skip classes then, and tell someone to sign for me, while trying to figure out a problem, the more i learnt the deeper i got into it, don't know if i learnt fast(that depends on one's scale of measurement), but what aided me was that i had no big issues with maths prior to that, so could dedicate time to study and google till i understand a concept very well.

Thanks bro.
