I started scripting in Python after going through a tutorial or two and I must say, I'm getting pretty good at it. I just have to keep practicing. :thumbsup:

 

Already wrote a 120 lines long script for calculating resistor values for LED diodes, I'm just too lazy to calculate that in my head. :P

You go girl! :P

I'm back, what happened?

I have too much penis to be a girl. :wink:

 

 

 

In other news, I just finished the script. :dance: Since I'm still inexperienced in Python, I call a definition that requires "return" value while I use a "print" value for the end result. Works like a charm but it shows "None" at the end of the result, not a big deal for me.

 

Also reduced it down to 106 lines, removed some junk and worthless descriptions I used while I wrote it. Here's the script, it's the first portable LED resistor calculator I've seen so far, and I've been looking for one in quite a while:

And only Iv000 and I will understand the description lines, unless someone else knows Croatian too.

I know guys with vaginas and girls with penises :teehee: My best friend is trans FtM actually and more manly than 97% of the guys I know xD

Oh genetics, u so funny.

I was impressed by that code :D though I guess since you finished engineering or something I shouldn't be surprised.

 

 

and also

Didn't expect that and made me lol ;D

:mellow:

[Iv000]

Not very creative of you, K00L.

It could have been a smiley face at least, why mellow ;-;

[Werne]

I was impressed by that code :biggrin: though I guess since you finished engineering or something I shouldn't be surprised.

Electro-mechanical engineering, finished it with second highest grades in my class. :cool:

 

People and my IQ tests say I'm smart. Clinically insane, but smart. :happy:

That is an acceptable and accurate description of that part of the script. :yes: If a man has four choices, he can't choose the fifth. If he does that, I described him correctly. :biggrin:

The biggest geniuses in history were insane to an extent.

We're on the right path :laugh: insane now, world domination tomorrow :P
