365 DAYS OF CODE - DAY 14

We were supposed to create a blackjack game and were advised to play the game online to get a feel of it. I’ve never played before but got hooked on it and ended up playing on various sites like the FreeGames.org, 247blackjack.com, and brainplay.com.

I get excited in scenarios where I would bust (i.e., lose) either way (for example, my sum equals 12, I hit and get 22 losing whereby the dealer’s cards equal 17, 15, or even 13). Hopefully I understand the next time I see this.

Pushes (draws) did not excite me much. Now I am beginning to ask myself if I am supposed to be writing about today’s code or the blackjack game. They are one and the same.

My code so far:

import random
import art

cards = [11, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10]

inquiry = input("Do you want to play a game of Blackjack? Type 'y' or 'n': ")
if inquiry == "y":
    print("\n*20")
    print(art.logo)

I know we will be making use of lists and the append function, but this might just be all for today :)

365 DAYS OF CODE - DAY 0

DAY 0 THOUGHT PROCESS Day Zero of the 365 days of code highlights my state of mind before the actual start of the program. Yes, it is a program. A program I set for myself to make sure I actually put in the work on a daily. I have tried coding before but have never been quite consistent with it. A friend advised me to try coding daily if I really wanted to be great at it someday. He also stated that it would take a long time and I should be prepared for it. During the same period, I noticed he was on a year's worth streak of chess which made me realize I could also do the same but with coding. I signed up for the 100 days of code course on Udemy and plan on starting my coding journey with Angela Yu and the thousands of students also taking the course. I also drafted my own copy of the pledge, copied and modified from the 100 Days of Python Pledge from the course materials. It is currently pasted on my wall as a constant reminder. Finally, I will also be recording my process here...

365 DAYS OF CODE - DAY 13

What is wrong with this code?? Can you tell what it does?? import art n1 = 0 n2 = 0 selected_operation = "" solution = 0 def add (n1, n2): return n1 + n2 def subtract (n1, n2): return n1 - n2 def multiply (n1, n2): return n1 * n2 def divide (n1, n2): return n1 / n2 operations = { "+" : add, "-" : subtract, "*" : multiply, "/" : divide } def rest_of_calculation (): print ( "+ \n - \n * \n /" ) selected_operation = input ( "Pick an operation: " ) n2 = float ( input ( "What is the next number?: " )) for key in operations: if key == selected_operation: solution = operations[key](n1, n2) print ( f" { n1 } { key } { n2 } = { solution } " ) print (art.logo) n1 = float ( input ( "What is the first number?: " )) rest_of_calculation() while True : new_calculation = input ( f"Type 'y' to continue calcu...

365 DAYS OF CODE - DAY 10

I realized that I have been tagging each day in accordance with the 100 days of python course . Now, I am one day behind (it is day 10 of the 365 days of code but day 9 on the python course I am taking right now) because I made sure to review unclear exercises yesterday. It is fine regardless. On day 9 of the python course, we looked at dictionaries, its table-likeness (2 columned) One tiny forgotten comma leads to 4 different errors and 1 warning, the prominent one being the SyntaxError. But shouldn’t it highlight line 3 instead of line 4?? Comma added, Error fixed. My Grading Program Code: student_scores = {     'Harry': 88,     'Ron': 78,     'Hermione': 95,     'Draco': 75,     'Neville': 60 }   student_grades = {}   for key in student_scores:     if student_scores[key] > 90:         student_scores[key] = "O...
