Python [Programming Language]

[xerotic]

Does anybody here use Python? If you need any help, feel free to ask me. I may make some guides on it in the future.

 

[Flow'n]

Nope I have never even heard of it.

I'm actually learning Python right now.
It's a pretty awesome language from what i've seen so far.
Do you recommend any tutorials? How did you learn Python?

 

[xerotic]

Nope I have never even heard of it.

It is very powerful, you can do near anything with it. I have written a chat system for two computers using Python.

 

[Flow'n]

I just looked at the code and it looks pretty easy. Is it?

Well, I do not have just a simple server client. I added a coded GUI and all.

 

[Flow'n]

So yes?

 

[xerotic]

So yes?

No, not entirely

Python has made me Rage multiple times.

I'll stick with .NET

I've thought of learning Python lately, a tutorial would definitely help me decide.

There is a really good tutorial in the Python section of HF.
It's the sticky and it's what I'm using to learn.

Oh, yeah. I read that one.

Going to download "A Byte of Python" now, and see if I can learn something.

I got the Bronze Tutorial Award on HF about 2 weeks after I joined for my Python tut, however, now that I look back, the tut isn't very good.

 

[Flow'n]

I got ya I will check into it a little deeper.

I had a question.
I'm trying to do this script:
I originally posted this on HeadRush's Python tutorial, however, thought I might get a faster reply here.

#!/usr/bin/python
import time
yourName = str(raw_input("Please enter your name: "))
if yourName == "John":
    print "You are learning python!"
    time.sleep(2)

elif yourName == "HeadRush":
    print "You made this tutorial!"
    time.sleep(2)

else:
    print "Oh welcome to this script."
    time.sleep(2)

print "Goodbye this is the end of the if, elif, and else statement script."
time.sleep(2)

However, every time I go to run it, the window doesn't stay open.
I've had several problems with this and the only script I could get to stay open was the User Input one.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to make sure the cmd stays open?

Phreak, I have the same problem.
Would love an answer ;S.

I've always wanted to learn Python, but I never got around to it

I wish I could get that for my epic Lua Tutorial, however, I doubt Omni will notice me. /cry
