DrLevi:
You assign the answer to the same variable

a = int(input())

while a > 0 : #You don't want an infinite loop
a = a/2
print(a)

This is what I understood from the question

I want an infinity loop, I want it to continue giving me the output of a but with the consecutive answers till I get 1 as my answer

Please check the picture above, thanks

This is what I'm trying to figure out

Good afternoon, I need assistance

For example

a = int(input())

while True:
Print ( a // 2)

The problem is how do I make variable a equal to the next answer, and then the next answer equal to the next?

Let's say a = 10
It'll print 5
How do I make variable a equal 5 so that it'll automatically print (5 // 2)
And then print (2 // 2)...

I'm not sure if I explained it properly, but I need assistance. Thanks in advance

I've modified my question

Anybody?

Tail rotor too small to counter the rotation of the main fuselage

Main and tail rotor have no ability to feather so this is dead on arrival

Since you can know all these vocabularies, you should be able to buil your own sir

I travelled out of my base to somewhere remote in kwara state. Luckily, there is strong internet connection but no radio station. What are your favourite online Radio?

Royal FM, in Kwara state

Swap?

Okay, thanks, again

You have a problem-solving skills problem not a programming one.

Basically a calculator is just input and calculation.

Can you get input from the user?... Yes
Can you calculate an expression?... Yes

Can you get an input calculated?... Calculator.

It works by breaking down large problems into very smaller ones and building up from what you can do to what you need to do.

You need to get books on how to solve problems.
Some I have are "Think like a Programmer", "Classic computer science problems in python"... I haven't even read them yet but they might help you get into the process of breaking down large problems.

Ultimately, you just need to build more and attempt more problems, we learn by experience. Even apprentice carpenters get confused on how massive roofs are made but by making them or watching them being made, he learns.
Watching tutorial to do it is very good, but not learning how they are doing it is an error on your part. It not about the "if the works", but about "How does it work and can I do it myself next time"


Good luck!

Thank you.

Can I get the books?

Donpre:
So your problem is not that you don't know these things but don't know how to apply them in solving problems?

For example, if I was asked to build a calculator, one that takes input and continues calculation with the same input, I'd have to rewatch the tutorial on how to do it. If asked to do it again next week, I'd still have to rewatch the tutorial again

Donpre:
What exactly did you learn those 4 times? Like list the things

Did the book you used give you exercises and did you do them?

What can you say "I definitely Know this" and what will you say "I've read this before but can't remember how it works"

Give answers to the above question then maybe we'll find out what you're doing wrong

Some of the things learnt:
Strings, Integers, lists, if, elif, else statements, while loops, some functions, defining functions, for and in statements, inputs...

There were no exercises (python for dummies)
But someone recommended automating the boring stuff with python, I'll continue with that, it has some exercises

Karleb:
I think Github and competitive programming might be too much for a newbie.

What I believe you need is simple challenges like printing 1 - 10 via loop. Printing prime or even numbers in a loop and all those.

If the simple challenge seem hard, Google the answer. If there is something you don't understand in the answer, Google it.

Make Google your friend.

Thank you

Deicide:
Go into competitive programming if you want to be familiar with the language. There is leetcode, hackersrank etc try to solve many problems. You would also learn a lot from other people.

When you are now comfortable with the language try to start a project or you could help In open source project, there are so many small project you can help with on GitHub this would help you familiarise yourself on how real world code looks like. Good luck.

Thank you

You knew something, but the problem is this!
You don’t have practical experience yet moreso judge yourself by what you know you can do(abilities) with python rather than some online challenge which most times are not structured properly.

If the problem was not understanding some concept then it means you don’t have a lot of knowledge about Phython.

My advise is that you get a complete e-book or complete video tutorial and follow all through. Then from there learn how to find real life experience.

We are all in the journey, even me sef still dey learn everyday and meeting new concepts that I will be like

Thanks, can you please suggest an eBook?

This is the 4th time I'll be going through python basics, the last time was during the lock down I couldn't focus cos of WAEC, now I'm done with all SSCE and I don't want this pre-admission period to go to waste


I restarted learning 2 weeks ago with my phone (no system). I've been going through PDFs and video tutorials. I'm kind of familiar with somethings so I choose to ignore them... I tried a python challenge on Solo Learn but it was like I knew nothing


How did you guys learn Python??

Interested

With Note 9s?

VIVO Y11

I'm currently using Redmi 9C and I'm looking forward to swapping with Redmi Note 9S

Will you swap

Newman20:
Tecno spark 4 for vivo y11...


Well maybe if the OP is a tech illiterate you'd have a chance.

Even if I was tech illiterate, the way they bash Transsion phones on Nairaland is too much, I'd rather use a Java phone

Let us swap it with my itel s16 and i will add #1500 to it, with three hungry man indomie and 4 pack of minimie chin chin
