Can I ask a python question?

1

Can I ask a question about python that will be answered? Real python questions, not coco. Else, could you recommend another coding site that I can ask a python question on?

Yes, I think I could answer some questions, I do do actual Python. :snake:

calculator()

I’m trying to make a calculator (for fun) and It doesn’t work.

Checked only the Multiplication:

def product():
    # code
        h.append(w) # error:  make all computed string values numbers
        h.append(float(w))

and the product will work. The other functions also have similar errors. Checked the code in http://pythontutor.com / The input screen is bottom left /
I support the idea to have two new sections: JavaScript/CoffeScript/ Help and Python Help where to post similar questions.
At this site you can also get live help.

Hello, I am posting this here and on reddit, I need help with this code:

def rps():
    a=str(input("What is your name?: "))
    b=str(input("And your name?"))
    c=str(input(f"{a}, do you want to choose rock(r), paper(p), or scissors(s)?: "))
    e="NO CHEATING! \n"
    print(e*100)
    d=str(input(f"{b}, do you want to choose rock(r), paper(p), or scissors(s)?: "))
    if a=="r"or a=="p"or a=="s" and b=="r"or b=="p"or b=="s":
        if a==b:
            print("It's a tie!")
        elif a=="r":
            if b=="p":
                print(f"{b} wins!")
            elif b=="s":
                print(f"{a} wins!")
        elif a=="p":
            if b=="r":
                print(f"{a} wins!")
            elif b=="s":
                print(f"{b} wins!")
        elif a=="s":
            if b=="p":
                print(f"{a} wins!")
            elif b=="r":
                print(f"{b} wins!")
        g=str(input("Play again? Yes(y) or no(n)?: ")
        if g=="y":#error
            rps()#error
        elif g=="n":
            print("Ok then. Bye!" )
        else:
            print("I'm assuming that's a no. Bye!")
rps()

help!

I changed some name variables and corrected the if statement:

def rps():
    aGamer=str(input("What is your name?: "))
    bGamer=str(input("And your name?"))
    aGamerChoice=str(input(f"{aGamer}, do you want to choose rock(r), paper(p), or scissors(s)?: "))
    e="NO CHEATING! \n"
    print(e*100)
    bGamerChoice=str(input(f"{bGamer}, do you want to choose rock(r), paper(p), or scissors(s)?: "))
    if (aGamerChoice=="r"or aGamerChoice=="p"or aGamerChoice=="s") and (bGamerChoice=="r"or bGamerChoice=="p"or bGamerChoice=="s"):
        if aGamerChoice==bGamerChoice:
            print("It's a tie!")
# so on ...

rps()

Use meaningful names. You can continue alone and ask later if difficulties…

I figured out that I hadn’t put a parentheses on the end of a line. Oh, computers. Thanks for helping me, though.
