Just in time for the season, a star. (Playing with my grandson on the Raspberry Pi computer)

I usually keep Python2 and Python3 on my Windows machine and you can do the same on a Linux computer. On Windows the trick is to tell your IDE which version to use. On Linux you can use the shebang line. My $35 Raspberry Pi computer (Linux) came with both …

I love action, so it would be Las Vegas or New York City.

See http://www.ninja-ide.org/ and http://idlex.sourceforge.net/ My criteria for a good IDE is how it handles input() ... # input test (use raw_input() for Python2) name = input("Enter your name") print(name)

Once you are on the internet, you have to come up with passwords. After a while it will be difficult to remember those passwords. You could write them down somewhere, but the wrong person could find them. Why not have Python help you to come up with a logical password …

I haven't worked with py2exe for a while, but try this ... from distutils.core import setup import py2exe import lxml import gzip import requests import sys sys.argv.append("py2exe") sys.argv.append("-q") setup( console=['Ty.py'], options={ 'py2exe': {'includes': ['lxml.html', 'lxml._elementpath', 'lxml.etree','gzip','requests']}, } )

This snippets shows how to have fun replacing multiple words in a text. The target words and the replacement words form key:value pairs in a dictionary. The search and replacement is done using Python's regular expression module re. The code also gives an example of a function within a function.

I can not remember the last time I sent out a handwritten letter. However, I do sent birthday cards with money in them to my nieces, nephews and grandchildren.

For those of you who are inquisitive, here is a little Python program to approximate the value of pi to 77 digits. You can easily go further, just change the value n in range(n+1).

Can you be mildly more specific? Have you started any code?

I like Python because you can be very innovative and quick when solving problems. My advice, stick with the newer Python3 version. Since the internet is full of Python2 examples, learn to recognize the older syntax and change it. If I remember it correctly, C# (Csharp) was Microsoft's answer to …

I like Wikipedia's approach to weed out the not-so-true stuff.

Maybe you should start with one of those remote controlled quatro-copter/camera combinations that are the rage right now. At least the first 10 km of space are yours to explore. Once you get into military airspace all bets are off!

This snippet shows you how to animate a dice roll with the Tkinter GUI, useful for many games that require a dice to give a random number from 1 to 6. An interesting use of Tkinter's grid(), grid_forget() and after() functions.

Transferring files under Windows7 was a lot nicer than under Windows8. If Windows10 adds another "improvement", I have to think Linux.

There are times when I try to be polite.

At your level it would be easier to time the seconds it takes to answer all the questions ... import random from datetime import datetime as dt correct = 0 incorrect = 0 name = input("Enter your name: ") start = dt.now() for i in range(10): number1 = random.randint(1,10) number2 …

I can not imagine working in one of those open office spaces. There are simply too many distractions to think properly.

Your problem is in function gen(), the list comprehension should be ... def gen(number, b=100000): return [random.randint(0, b) for x in xrange(number)]
