Hey guys, I feel the need to have a thread like this in this section. It'll help curb derailing on other threads, serve as a platform to ask random questions instead of creating a new thread for every single question you want to ask. We can even network and share ideas here.

Hello guys
Quick one: Which is the better option to go for (a noob)

Option 1 - 4gb RAM, 500GB hdd, core i5 --> #80k - #90k
Option 2 - 8GB RAM, 500GB hdd, core i7 --> #100k - #110k

I know option 2 is of a higher quality but do I really need all that as a noob?

Depends on your budget. But as you said, option 2 is better. You might need it for something 'heavier' in the future. Buy once and never worry about it again.

Budget isn't the issue. Just thinking twice about coughing out 100k for laptop grin grin Well, like you said, buy once and never worry about it again.

I think option 2 is much more better but if you can close your eyes and buy a laptop of ssd drive, even if the size is 128gb, you won't regret you did because of their speed. It will help you in the future as you are adding software to your system.

Really? I actually saw ssd but requested for hdd because I don't know much about it. Doesn't it have issues with crashing?

bro, the reason my most people prefer hdd drive is because of the price.. Ssd is very expensive but the speed is second to none, I was using hdd before, crashes everytime and very slow but since when I have changed to ssd, I regret ever buying an hdd laptop.
Re: Programmers Chat Room. by iCode2: 10:43pm On May 12, 2020
Okay thanks. I'll look into that.

Buy whatever your money can afford. As a beginner, I can tell you that for your first year of programming, you'll rarely need more than the first one. Except you're dealing with a field that requires a PC with high processing capability like animations, developing android apps, machine learning, systems programming.
Except that, your choice of PC won't matter much. It all depends on you. Why waste cash on the second when the first would serve you.

Hey guys, so, I'm trying my hands on this exercise:

The Collatz Sequence Write a function named collatz() that has one parameter named number. If number is even, then collatz() should print number // 2 and return this value. If number is odd, then collatz() should print and return 3 * number + 1. Then write a program that lets the user type in an integer and that keeps calling collatz() on that number until the function returns the value 1. (Amazingly enough, this sequence actually works for any integer—sooner or later, using this sequence, you’ll arrive at 1! Even mathematicians aren’t sure why. Your program is exploring what’s called the Collatz sequence, sometimes called “the simplest impossible math problem.”) Remember to convert the return value from input() to an integer with the int() function; otherwise, it will be a string value. Hint: An integer number is even if number % 2 == 0, and it’s odd if number % 2 == 1.

Here's my code:


def collatz(number):
if number % 2 == 0:
return print(number // 2)
elif number % 2 == 1:
return print(3 * number + 1)

number =int(input())
while number != 1:
collatz(number)


What am I not doing right?

def collatz():

return number // 2

elif number % 2 == 1:
return 3 * number + 1



number = int(input())

while number != 1:
number = collatz()
print(number)

Passing number as argument will make it call the same number

I hope this helps
