Python misadventures - how no () made me :(

I've moved to Hive, along with most other people, following Justin Sun's takeover of Steem in the Spring of 2020. I believe hive is a lot more decentralised than Steem!

In more recent versions of python you don't actually need the () in a class.

Maybe the visualization tool is using an older version. Versioning is definitely a struggle in python. At work, we run our code in virtual environments and all packages we import are version controlled.

Haha, best way to learn. Maybe the guys who did the listings were part of the BBC Micro / ZX Spectrum  team who did the listings for CV&G.

If you don't know what I'm talking about.. well, the old mags from the early 80's always had game listings in them, and they rarely worked due to bugs.

I think they were intentionally put there to piss us off, but had the side effect of making their readers programmers and debuggers.

@steevc will know exactly what I'm talking about!

Oh I know about that. The listings were all specific to different computers and it was really hard to convert them, especially if they had graphics. I used to buy several magazines each month, but we had no on-line stuff to read then.

They used to say, '*bugs will be fixed in the next issue*'.

When the next issue came we had either lost interest or fixed em ourselves!

Oh that sounds like such a joyful experience! 

I think this was just due to publication deadlines, maybe?

It's a learning experience. Typing in listings is okay, but it's best to understand what it all means. Of course you need to figure out what the error messages mean. There are tutorials just about that.

Itā€™s a slow old process when all Iā€™ve got is evenings and weekends, but Iā€™m getting there I think! 

Filtering the best learning resources is also a challenge!

@gungho ·
Man! I bet a lot of precious time was wasted by your checking a gazillion times over stupid brackets. I don't know Python but I do know JavaScript and every little detail counts when coming to scripts. You oughta write a note to the author of the book about this "typo".  Well, I'm glad you're on track now. What a hurdle that was!!
