ok, i am learning python, and i realy dont know much. my guide im using said to make a program
where it asks your name, and if the name is yours your make it so there is a compliment, if it is
another name you make it that its an insult, and anything else makes it say Nice name. here is what
i wrote name = raw_input("What is your name?") if name == John: print "Your name is freaking
sweet, you must be a god or something." elif name == Bob: print "You have a freakin' weird
name, dude." else: print "Nice name,",name i donot understand what i am doing w...

I stumbled upon this link earlier today and was hoping someone could explain or walk me through
getting the script running. http://ponderer.org/del.icio.us I'll keep the post short since I
have no clue as to what I should. I'll just say that I rarely work on WinXP and I would rather
get it running on my old win box sitting in the corner. ...

There are so many languages used in software and web development. Python is one of them. Basically
Python is object-oriented , high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Python was
developed in the 90’s. Python is simple and easy to learn. Therefore it reduces cost of program
maintenance. It is very attractive for rapid application development because of its high-level
built-in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding. Python is also use as a
scripting or glue language to connect existing components. Python supports modules and ...

On this tutorial we will see how to draw a circle on the screen and move it around using the arrows
of the keyboard. (Don't worry if you don't get anything, the code will be analysed line by

Hello This is the first part of my Python tutorial. The code is pretty self-explanatory so few

roots. No negative number validation. Allows fractions in result.

This should help you know what programming languages are. C# is a language designed by Microsoft
for the .Net framework. Its syntax is similar to C and C++, with an emphasis on being programmer
friendly. It has memory management where C and C++ require the programmer to do this manually, it
has array bounds checking where C and C++ don't, among many other differences. Automatic memory
management and some other programmer-friendly features of C# sacrifice some performance, but these
features can also make development faster and easier. This can be very attractive to ...

I was watching Star Trek the other day, I think it was Voyager. Anyways I was wondering.. They refer
to this 'trinary' code and other things like Tera Quads of information. I researched this a
little bit and all I could find were entries about it relating to Star Trek and nothing else really.
So I was wondering, does anyone really know or have a really good explanation of what is on the

make computers work, isn't there something in the future to be made that w...

I want a thread where I can see how to solve a Varity of programming problems in many languages. The
idea is so I can read short examples to become fluid in many languages. Both reinforcing what I know
and learning new stuff. The problems should have a short solution and be solvable in many different
languages. Web applications are alright but make some reference on how the code is used (e.g. CGI).
The poster can provide the problem and as many different solutions as he likes. For example:
Problem 1. Write a function to compute a factorial. Solution Soln. (problem 1.) ...

http://shakespearelang.sourceforge.net/report/shakespeare/ This is a weird language whose syntax
is kind of like a play. It may not seem like it can do anything, but it's actually more powerful
that it looks. The programs are much longer than those in any other language, but SPL is more fun.
Unfortunately, there's no compiler-it has to be translated to C, then compiled from there. There
are some example programs at the bottom....

Hi All, I don't see any thread discuss about the pros and cons of different languages to help
beginners, but i'm asking for a slightly different reason. I have been programming for about 1
year now, and I know only Visual Basic. I am planning to learn some other programming langauges.
I've learned that once you've learned one language, pretty much all you have to do is learn
a new syntax to learn a new language. So, now I'll get to the point. I think that I should begin
to specialize in a language. I don't know which language I should learn and ...

Hey all, I'm new to programming and I have a hard time deciding on a cross-platform language

I was wondering, can I make games in python, even simple text based ones? me and my friend wanted to
start making homebrew games, and we decided to start out learning python. I've learned a bit,
not much, but enought to make one of those conversations with the computer, like with loops and
where they ask questions like "what is your name?" and then say it back etc. We plan on also
learning C++, which we will learn later after we get real good with Python. However, will I
eventually be able to make games with Python?...

This discussion is created to discuss current programming paradigms and propose new programming
paradigms. First Some thoughts: Functional programming is often used in AI languages because it
allows a top down design approaches. The program can begin by describing the high level
functionality and later flesh out the low level details. This is in contrast to procedural
programming in which the problem is first broken down into smaller problems. The smaller problems
are solved and then put together to solve the larger problem. One functional programming is called
lisp....
