The funny part of the job description is the part that says payment will be monthly. If after working for a month he varnishes or trouble brewed before month ends what happens to the writer?

I have done 2 weeks work worth 19k and the client ran. I know how it feels.

PoliticsRe: Which Tribe Does Lokoja Belongs To?. by waali(m): 9:58am On May 03, 2019

As usual in every big towns/cities there are sabo areas dominated by hausas and their presence is well felt.
From Ganaja junction to Ganaja is dominated by igalas
I have not been to any where dominated by ebira, nupes in lokoja
The Igalas dominates Adankolo and Ganaja area.

I think the area around Barracks is dominated by the Ebiras. If I may ask, are you calling the Nupes Bassange (Bassa)? The Bassa people are mixed with the Hausas living in Kabawa and that old market side.

The thing is, you really can't tell. Bassa people are seen as Hausas too because they speak the language.

As we were told. The Hausas currently living in Lokoja are descendants of exiled kings who opposed the Europeans directives during the colonial rule.
PoliticsRe: Which Tribe Does Lokoja Belongs To?. by waali(m):
Unlimitk:
I Was researching on fb about lokoja and all d street names sounded yorubaish to me
I was seeing names like felele araromi isanlu and so on
D felele one was where LFC winners chapel church is located in lokoja
Now I want to ask: does lokoja belong to okuns(Yorubas) igala or ebira ppl
D igalas are mostly on d eastern side of d river Niger,that's d confluence river so they have less claim
I looked at d ebira's LGA in kogi and I didn't find lokoja as part of their LGA
But lokoja was part of kogi west LGA which is d okun(Yorubas) part of kogi state, I even looked at federal university of kogi in lokoja and most of d staff are Yorubas from professors to at one time d vc of federal university of lokoja
So with all these evidence, is it safe to say d okuns(Yorubas) own lokoja d capital of kogi state
Your research is faulty to me. Federal University Lokoja have had only one past VC and the man is from Katsina. The current is from Plateau. Can you name other places aside Felele? Kabawa, Adankolo, Ganaja, Zangon Daji, Lokongoma and the Lokoja itself are not Yoruba names. Mount Pati is coined from the Bassange. The rivers don't sound Yoruba.

Except if I missed something, The Bassange were the settlers the white met.

Talking about the Fulokoja profs. It is expected. They are the most schooled. I still doubt your statistics about the general staffing sha.

Don't do research on FB, do research on Google or better still come over to Lokoja and see for yourself.

Hi all, pls i want to know much it will cost me to set up a blog site or website.
thanks[color=#990000][/color]
It depends on your budget and plans for your blog. Me for example, started Power Master with just N1050. However, just know that it's on the free platform. Starting it on a self-hosted WordPress would definitely require more money.

ProgrammingLooking For a Python/django Or Javascript Remote Internship Opportunity by waali(op):
I am ready to take up a remote internship job. I know python and JavaScript. While I can't claim to be an expert.... I am not a beginner. I am looking for this opportunity because I want to have a feel of what it feels like working with people. I am currently serving in Gombe state (reason for requesting remote opportunity).

I am interested in web development using python/Django at the backend. I can also do front-end development for you using pure Javascript (no framework). If you're interested, you can contact me on 08101729610 (I am on whatsapp), I will show you some of my work. You can also give me your own test to know if I am fit for the job or not.

What I want to achieve from this? Working experience and a token to motivate me. Once again.... I am open to your test.

If you don't like the dressing in the school, withdraw and go to one which favors your dress code. You can not force a private institution to amend its values for you.
Today you are demanding hijab, if the bend, who knows what you would demand tomorrow?
Maybe it would now be forceful conversions to Islam
And it's as easy as saying it right?
EducationRe: Christian Parents, Ifa Priest Protest Against UI School’s Hijab Crisis by waali(m): 7:34am On Nov 22, 2018
So to avoid dividing the children, the Muslim students should now dress in a way that's acceptable in the Christian faith and abandon their own right? Nobody is forcing anyone to wear Hijab but for those that want, it's their right (since they have the right to choose the faith to follow).

You can't come and tell me not to dress in an Islamic way and I agree then end up dressing like a Christian.

Another one-liner for this problem:

Construct a function that accepts a dataset, which is a list of lists, and returns a dictionary with the keys of the dictionary being the last element of every inner list and the values of the dictionary are the corresponding probabilities of the elements.

for example:

if dataset = [['yes', 'yes', 'yes'], ['yes', 'yes', 'yes'], ['yes', 'no', 'no'], ['no', 'yes', 'no'], ['no', 'yes', 'no']] is passed to the function it returns {'no': 0.6, 'yes': 0.4}

if the dataset = [['love', 1, 3], ['hate', 2, 3], ['indifferent', 1, 4], ['hate', 3, 3]] is passed to the function it returns {3: 0.75, 4: 0.25}

I already have a one-line solution and would like to compare with more efficient solutions!

Nice.
But this solution only returns a value for test (iii).
Eyes for details.... Good one. While reading the problem, I only read the first two examples and coupled with the use of language in the problem ( returns a dictionary with the maximum value.). No excuse though, I should have think towards that direction even without been told. Thanks man!
ProgrammingRe: Python Programming by waali(m): 11:03am On May 11, 2018

In spirit of one-liners, create a one-liner function that accepts a dictionary with numeric values and returns a dictionary with the maximum value. For example:
i. The function accepts: {'ade': 3, 'john': 5, 'sam': 1, 'bukky': 20} and returns: {'bukky': 20}
ii. The function accepts: {'ade': 3} and returns: {'ade': 3}
iii. The function accepts: {'ade': 3, 'john': 5, 'sam': 20, 'bukky': 20} and returns: {'sam': 20, 'bukky': 20}
Have been in NYSC orientation camp in the last 23 days, my solution is attached as a pic. For those that need clarification, read the paragraph below too.

- the first part of the return statement returns the key with the highest value

- I used the sorted global function to sort the dictionary using it values in descending order. This function returns the dictionary as a list and using [0] and dic[] , I got the highest values.

- looking at the return statement, you would see that it is enclosed in a dictionary format thereby generating a dictionary of the highest key with it associated value.

ProgrammingRe: Python Programming by waali(m): 7:51am On Apr 17, 2018
efficiencie:
Write a function that converts a string containing an ordered sequence of positive whole numbers and number ranges to an ordered list of those numbers, that it returns.

Number are separated with commas (and optional spaces) and number ranges are marked with a - between two whole numbers (with optional spaces either side).

For bonus points and handle out of order sequences and reverse ranges. Return an ordered list of unique numbers.

State your assumptions (so interpret the challenge your way).

For example,

‘1-5, 7, 9, 10-13’ should convert to [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
Here's the screenshot of my solution attached below... Now to the explanation and assumption

1. I assume assume aside the spaces separating the numbers, the user input space at the beginning or ending of the string. So my way of dealing with this is to first remove all the spaces in the string and that's what I did on line 2.

2. Since the list would likely contain number range, I introduced a mechanism for checking whether each of the items in the string_list variable is just a number or a range and this would determine how the data is been handled.

4. If the item is a range i.e contains a hyphen(-) then I need to get the start and end number and pass it to the range function which would be looped over, converted into an integer and added to the output list.

5. If the item is just a number, it is converted into an integer and added to the list.

6. Lastly, I use the set and list function to make sure the list returned as output is unique.

Note: There's still some error handling issues not incorporated into the code for simplicity and because I am just passing and felt I should just try. One of such is how you handle non numeric items. With your isdigit and isapha methods on string, that would be taken care of.
