I have an answer with proxy20 infinite decimal equations . May aim was to solve it partially .

Hmmm. Interesting.

^^^ I agree on what the above poster agreed on...

@Slyr0x
An Attempt

from decimal import *
import math

x = 0.7893

beginH = Decimal(1.0 )
beginB = Decimal(1.0 )

multi = 3
adder = 2

r = Decimal(0)
for i in range( 2, 5001 ) :
	r = r + Decimal( ( beginH/beginB ) * Decimal( x ** i ) )
	
	beginH = multi * beginH + adder
	beginB = multi * beginB
	multi +=1
	adder +=1
print(r)

Slyr0x: does the iteration starts from the teachers or the students?

Hello, We'd [Participants in Nigeria] be having a Hangout Call by 4pm to Sync on preparations for the next round.
If you know you have good recommendations that may be helpful to the participants or you're a participant, please comment or message me your Gmail address.

Thanks

To Code Jam: https://code.google.com/codejam/
To the above stat: https://www.go-hero.net/jam/16/

A handful of Nigerians made it to Round 1A of Google's Code Jam.
Let's discuss and prepare for the next round on this thread.

Pls signify, with your Google Code Jam handle, if you made it to Round 1A .

Djangocode:


Well uhm, Thats like a shot in the Dark...

Can you recommend a book that handles ''Python's OOP'' effectively..

Bro, There are a lot of great books that discusses that in python But I like the book "Fluent Python"
You can check: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Python_Programming/Classes too.

Check this book too "Wrox Python: Create - Modify - Reuse" Although old, It `made` a lot of sense.

Djangocode:


Yes Boss.. It's helped me tremendously..

I wish some things can be continued... Like deep inside python's OOP...

I trust someone would start something on that soon. @Seun

Djangocode:
Lemme resurrect this thread for fellow pythonistas...
Its really a Nice Thread to learn Python Programming..

Wow.. I'm glad it has helped. This thread brings up lots of memories.

NPComplete:


Hmmm
So it wasn't technical? Maybe that's because it was targeted at a wide variety of audience. I would have loved a more technical exposure though.
@the part in bold, did they go through a step by step process of a (maybe simple) problem and actually solved it? Or did they just go like "hey guys here's an example of an app that uses big data to solve a traffic problem, shiny ain't it?"

Exactly the bolded .. lolz

@NPComplete:

I was there and it was nice.

Topics discussed include issues with traffic management in Lagos, problems faced building apps that try to solve traffic problems [street mapping, bus-stop naming, routes], how traffic data analyses (Big Data) can be used to solve the problem (case study https://www.tsaboin.com/ and .....) and IBM Bluemix cloud platform. etc

Not as technical as I expect, though..

forjamb:


Here's a snapshot of the error below.

From the error message.. The manipulate_data function is declared with a string arg "list" instead of a valid variable name list.

AyeshS:
I suggest you start reading about AngularJS.

... Don't oooo... Or you'd even get more confused

clevadani:

tried reading the chapter,got confused

what got you confused ??

This ??

iphiy:
NLanders, I am a Food Technologist, and was invited by Andela to take the curriculum for home study and other stages that will follow. Must I be a computer student to scale through?, should I proceed? Tnxx,

Nope...
Yes Proceed.
If you have the passion for programming and can practice/absolve/Learn Computer Jargon fast. Then you're good.

enigmatique:
I appeal to all those running to the WhatsApp group to apply the brakes a tiny bit. Who we really need to hear talk are current Andela fellows, and how many of them have indicated interest in joining the group?

Again, this NL thread can be easily found via Google and other search engines. Not so for the WhatsApp group. Lastly, any solutions proffered and issues discussed here can easily be seen by a new comer. S/he only has to go to the appropriate page. For the WhatsApp group however, all solutions proffered BEFORE you're added are lost to you, and the group members will have say the same thing all over again. Who won't get tired of such monotony?

Great...

I'm willing to help aspiring fellows who need help on Python...

This thread helped me too like @ramos16 ... lolz .. Let's not let it die.

Ramos16:


see your head PYJac... Make you do come resume January make we drill you small.....

I don see your new pix for skilltree... you don fine small ooo..#Andela Effect ... lolz

hmmm.. drill ?? ... I no come again ooo.. lolz

Ramos16:


Exactly what I was afraid of, the whatsapp group has diverted attention from this thread, which is the reason we all are here in the first place. If new people come now, they will see low and stale comments, making them feel that the thread is not active. This thread got me into Andela.

Really ?? ...

driand:
and 3g works only on sim 1

yeap... That's no bug though

Breelzy:
C# asp.net

then PHP

driand:
Stock lollipop? Why? I'm on miui 7 now and it's quite good..

Stock.. Just feel like blending in... lolz

driand:
Hope the network signal is OK and battery life, and have u noticed any bugs?

it WAS quite cool. no "noticeable" bug.. I'm on lollipop now

driand:
Dat miui v7 is it lollipop or kk rom?

kk

Ramos16:


I will like to do that, but it feels like it takes away the use for Nairaland, what will happen to people who do not know there is a whatsapp group for Andela, what if the creator/admin decides to delete the group.....

Instead, I am trying to reach out to the recruitment team to take Nairaland more seriously, they should be here on a daily basis to answer questions prospective Fellows have.

Yea. #TeamNairalandXII ... lolz
