Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Nobody: 12:13pm On Apr 18, 2020 |
Most programmers have asserted that easy understanding is one of Python's features. Am I the only one finding it difficult to understand the language? |

I haven't started learning Python yet but I've seen some basic Python code and it's easy to read. |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Nobody: 3:33pm On Apr 18, 2020 |
I wonder how this came to be

locust: This is the most basic of program.you can write in python. The input() is used to prompt the user to supply a value to the computer. The Len() is used to check the length of a.variable.. Python is pretty easy... If u dont mind.. I can send u link of where to get materials that will ease you into it 1 Like |

Anytime you get to a point you feel it is hard in python,just take a break and pick it up again when your brain get relaxed 3 Likes |

locust:It is a code to print only numbers from a user input. lt is not a difficult code, and l believe it's more complex in many other languages than what you have here. l recommend you read a book titled...Automate the boring stuff with python. 1 Like |

Please why is line 3 ignored? I expected the answer series to be: °Hello World! ° What is your name? °Locust °Good to see you Locust °The length of your name is: Why was °Locust ignored? 1 Share

Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by gbolly1151(m): 1:46pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust:Because you dont use the keyword or funtion print() in line 3,only what you command to print is what the code will print... |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Daejoyoung: 3:32pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust:line 3 has the variable...myname. Line 3 was not ignored, it was used in line 4. |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Nobody: 3:44pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
Daejoyoung: I tried replicating what was done in this book.

Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Daejoyoung: 3:53pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust:yeah and your code is right. What you did in line 3, is that you assigned the name 'locust' to a variable called...my Name. This is the user input. ln line 4, you did what is called string Formatting. You gave an instruction to the program to say...Good to see you + myName. (where myName is now equal to whatever you gave it in line 3, which in this case is 'locust'). The use of the plus sign there is how you bring your string ( or sentence) and your variable ( myName) together, and it is referred to as String Formatting. Hope this helps? You can ask whatever you don't understand. 1 Like |

Daejoyoung: Okay. But as you can see from the screenshot, the question "what is your name?" wasn't answered. Instead the output went on to say "Good to see you Locust". My question is, what should have been the correct code for the answer to the question? print(Locust) ?? As you can see from the book, the name 'Al' was seen. The name 'Al' was the only output in that particular line. But it you check my output, the name Locust only appeared in line 4, when it should have also appeared in line 3 as the answer to the question "what is your name". I don't know if I'm making any sense |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by Daejoyoung: 4:27pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust:The code from the book says myName=input() and that function input() gives a user interface where you then type in your name and press enter. You do that if you want it to show your name. Follow the code exactly as it is in the book, by putting myName=input(), when you run everything, then you'll see a dialogue box asking you to input your name. 1 Like |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by gbolly1151(m): 6:54pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust:To replicate that book, change line 3 to myname=input(). when you run it, you will see a prompt requesting you for keyboard action, then you put your 'locust'. Those bold statement in that tutorial material are input from keyboard 1 Like |

locust:Hello bro. Please where did you get this from? Is it an app? |
Re: Why Is Python Programming So Hard To Understand by scarplanet(m): 10:32pm On Apr 20, 2020 |
locust: Your question is already answered. But to reiterate on it, the book showed the AI to indicate what was entered through the input statement. Like you were told, replicate how it is exactly in the book if you want to enter an input. Secondly, you dont necessary have to put the string "locust" in a tuple. Just saying my name = "Locust" without the parentheses is enough 1 Like 1 Share |

ATTITUDE2:Did you download it via anaconda? that would have been better. But then l think pycharm is ok. |

locust: is there something I'm not understanding? which one is via Anaconda? I thought he was just pulling my leg. and what other tools will I need again? @Daejoyoung apologies. As I'm just knowing about Anaconda today when I do a little research on pycharm. |
