Good platform...let share exercises. Can anyone share a code to reverse a number (integer) in not more than two python lines. Preferably 1 line of code.

I have also being learning programming as a means of career change, but am so far into web development...and am currently learning JavaScript. One thing I've found amazing is how..codes that usually look like am reading hindi is suddenly becoming something I can understand, relate with, code myself...I mean the process of moving from that "wetin be all this rubbish sef" stage to a = b stage is just amazing fun. I'll delve into python afterwards...cos I've learned that it is the language for A.I and that is why I've moved into programming in the first place. Let's all have fun

This is my best attempt.

A = 123456

Code:

ReverseA = int("".join([ str(A)[i] for i in range(-1, (-1*len(str(A))),-1)]))

Note: This is not pythonic as it is not readable. But it should do the job in one line.

Greetings too.

I started learning Programming using python programming language. There are many others but if you like python, then u should begin with it. Below is the link to a thread of python video tutorials. It's quite concised and easily understandable.

https://www.nairaland.com/4945611/thread-tutorial-python-programming

Do you have the link for JavaScript learning, I prefer JavaScript, Don't just know why...Buh which one do u think it's advisable for me to learn? Js or python?

please, programmers in the house, what difference (s) does it make using pycharm as my IDE instead of the one that came with shell.

I want to continue my Python learning. So I saw pycharm on YouTube

This is my problem. I hope this doesn't get deleted.

I've been trying to run some codes using while loop on python. At the end of every false trying to make it true, it keeps running the false even after I might given the command when it's true.

Below is a screenshot
boss man good day , can you please share the names or links to the resources you are using to learn this ,thanks

Following.

Meanwhile, one of the major challenge I have been facing since I started this journey is iteration. I have tried several times to understand iteration to a decent level but have not been successful.

I will appreciate a link to any tutorial that simplifies it to an in depth level or better still, some kind of nice explanation on this thread if OP will not mind.

JS is mainly for web dev.Mostly frontend and can be used for backend too if you use its nodejs framework.

Python on the other hand can be used for variety of things like A.I,Data Science,Mobile app ,game development and many more.
It can also be used for web dev but backend only.You will need to learn Python with django framework in order to use it for web backend .


So it depends on which part of programming you are going into.

Use mosh hamedani's python course on youtube.
Also use "Automate the boring stuff with python" its a pdf...
"Learn python the hard way"... A pdf too.

This coupled with the answers he will give you will do you good.

This is because you are not yet familiar with it.

Start learning the basics and work your way up.Very soon,it will look comprehensive to you.

If you ask me, I will tell you that programming is all mathematics sad but in this case, a deep and practical mathematics. This practical aspect of it makes it more fun and exciting to work on. grin
It's logic not mathmatics

I think this works fine I used my pydroid for it and it came out without any errors

num = str(123456789)
print(num[::-1])

I tried the one @Jobia posted but was getting a typeerror saying that 'int' object is not subscriptable tried checking how to resolve the errors online and the only reasonable answer I could get is that int objects can't be iterated over unless you cast it to string.

But I think java's stringbuilder and stringbuffer class has a .reverse() used for handling such cases smiley smiley
yeah I added an extra closing parentheses in error. I've modified it now..

If you wanna learn solidly and properly structure your codes from the onset, you'll need to build that culture with practice. You can use this website to practice your algorithm skills. You can as well evaluate how well your code is optimized there by taking their various tests.
