Masti6 You will probably need to leave your computer running for at most a day but probably less than 12 hours. The correct minute depends on your location (for me it was during the night but i am probably on the other side of the world :-P) In addition, many real world scenarios require this kind ...

Bumping this topic as I'm visiting this site once again for a long time. I'm using Python to count the Pi to as far as my processor can take it, but still no luck. Even if I could find the string in the Pi I don't know how to determine the spot it's at in the Pi. If anyone could send me a PM with an...

The text in the challenge doesn't make any sense anyways, so it's all kind of out of place for me. I don't know how any programming could work, and as I'm told I don't need to program anything I won't. Reading all that for more than 4 times with it still not making any sense is frustrating... Do I h...

I'm using Python 3.1, but I think the way you are using remove is wrong. I suggest you take a look into the documentation for the correct use of remove. And why do you use an if-statement at the end? to print out the total only when the counter is the same as lengTH (omglol typo on teh code) of the...

Feeling desperate about the Valuation Challenge
Hi everyone. I've been trying to debug the following *Python26* code for the challenge Valuation for about 2 days now, without succession: main = [1,2,3,'x','x',4,5,6] counter = 0 lenght = len(main) total = 0 while counter < lenght: if main[counter] == "'x'": main.remove(counter) counter =...

I remember getting no manual with the installation. And simply asking from someone who knows saves the trouble of searching for it with invalid keywords for many hours. (Which I've already done.) Second of all, as I don't know where else to ask/search, I'll seek assistance to various problems in the...

I've listed all True numbers, and now I've just got to figure what the list of numbers means... Right? If so, thanks for help! As for ...
