Python Python
You could just use a text editor that supports regular expressions, such as TextPad, and replace "^" with the required string. Or, if there are just a small number of lines (you didn't say), just insert the string on the first line, then select/copy and repeatedly paste (CTRL-V) at the start of...- hanginthere

Python Check whether a whole number plus Numeric Numbe
But then you'd also have to check for .00, .000, etc. Better to just convert to int and compare. Even a basic example should satisfy the specs.- hanginthere

Python Check whether a whole number plus Numeric Numbe
@menator You return False if arg is a float. A value of 2.0 would qualify as a whole number.- hanginthere

Python Check whether a whole number plus Numeric Numbe
I'm assuming you posted this for feedback. "check" is a very non-descriptive name for a function. It should be renamed to something like "isWholeNum". Your type hint on the def says it returns a boolean value, yet in line 3 you return "Whole number". You don't need to import typing. There is...- hanginthere

Python Check whether a whole number plus Numeric Numbe
One way to check if a numeric value is a whole number is if int(num) == num: To check if a value can be converted to a numeric without using a "try" you can do if type(value) in (int, float):- hanginthere

Python Does anyone know why this happens?
Just a suggestion, I find it is easier to use an implicit context manager. That way you never have to worry about closing a file. For example: for line in open('dictionary.txt'): dictionary_list.append(line.strip()) The file is automatically closed when the loop terminates. Also, when...- hanginthere

Python Can anyone help me with this?
You type in exactly what you see. number = input("Please enter a number: ") prints the quoted string, then waits for you to type something and press enter. The string you type gets stored in the variable, number. While this is not strictly correct, you can just assume that it is for now. Note...- hanginthere

Python Check if two strings are anagrams (video)
After one minute of pointless music and text that was hard to read, and no idea how what I was seeing related to anagrams I called it quits. You don't need a video to demonstrate (poorly) that which can be explained with four lines of code and two lines of text.- hanginthere

Python Number Hi-Low game.
Except for syntax errors, what the error is depends on what you want the program to do. What do you want for your output? If you are getting an error, what is the error message and what line is causing it?- hanginthere

It's not final until it is documented. Perhaps you could provide a short description of what you program does and how it is used.- hanginthere

Python Write in lines from a txt that is called by the occurrence of two strings
Your original spec says "write all the lines between them but only if its input lines lines optmized". According to the spec the output should only be the following starred lines input *lines *lines optimized input lines lines input *lines *lines optimized input lines lines another lines lines...- hanginthere

Python Write an empty line at the end of my files
First of all I apologize for the typos in the previous post. Perhaps you could tell me what you actually want the code to do. My interpretation is: You have a set of n files dipole_1.com dipole_2.com . . . dipole_n.com and a file, innput.txt. You want to read...- hanginthere

Python Change values in one list by referring to a second one
One other thing I just learned (and it makes sense when you hear the explanation) - when you are working with slices in pandas DataFrames, both the start and end values are inclusive. The reason is that you can use slices with string (column header) values so it is clearer when you are selecting...- hanginthere

Python Change values in one list by referring to a second one
Actually, range(num) evaluates from 0 to num-1 as you can see if you execute list(range(5)), so do not subtract 1 in the statement. Perhaps you should test to make sure the two lists are actually the same length.- hanginthere

Greetings
I strongly disagree about the "automating tasks" comment. I have developed several full blown applications using Python/wxPython. I wrote a Sudoku tool that is quite useful for solving those puzzles. It doesn't do any of the thinking. I just provides a GUI where, instead of repeatedly...- hanginthere
