Love the length of these videos; i feel like many python tutorials are hours long which can be kind of daunting! keeping each video on a few topics makes it much easier to take on. thanks!

[@Microwaveoficial]

For those who are running into problems: Just replace the "|" with "or"

THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY LEARNING SO EASY WITH YOUR GREAT EXPLANATIONS DAVE 👍👍

Hi Dave, thank you for these videos, I have watched your tutorials on HTML, CSS, Javascript, React (not-finished) and Next.js. You are the best. For improving the game code, can I re-write the code as: * if player == 1: player = "Rock" elif player == 2: player = "Paper" else: player = "Scissors" * instead of importing Enum? obviously you will do it for computer and then print("You chose " + player + ".") print("Python chose " + computer + ".")

[@cookie12932]

I got a problem. The mini-game works when I run it through the play button and type 1,2 or 3. It wont work when I type 1,2 or 3 in the terminal. It will just return whatever number i typed. If I type 2, it will just return the number 2 etc.

[@anthonyythomas]

Excellent video! I did have trouble triggering the 'exit' if statement for invalid player entries though. It seems the pipe no longer works as an 'or' operator in Python 3.12.0. I got the statement to trigger by simply using 'or' instead of the pipe.

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

A correction should have shown as a pop-up on the screen? Noted in the description. You are correct, btw! 💯

[@Blonar257]

Awesome tutorial! Thank you so much. 1 question: is RPS(player).name not much simplier that replace, or am i missing something?

[@nishantsingh4923]

Hey Dave, thanks for making these videos. I want to know if u want to continue the RPS game (that the program should not end and again ask for input value) what command can be used for this.

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

Keep going in this series. We will do that and more!

[@muzhaffarhaydar7928]

thanks dave

Great series Dave 🔥 Definitely good to take a JS every now and then. Let’s see how far you take us!

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

Thank you!

I meant ‘take a break’ 😅 Thank you Dave! Keep the good stuff flowing 🤘

@@DaveGrayTeachesCode Hi Dave your tutorial are the best and simple to follow..thanks

[@appendix-q6k]

When I enter 2 for my choice and press enter it only just takes me back to another prompt but it doesn’t tell me what I selected vs what the computer selected. What is the issue? 10:48

[@Lena-pz4cw]

I had the same, and for me was an indentation issue in your code. The lines following the if player < 1 or player > 3: condition should be properly indented to be inside the if block

[@anirudh2660]

Nice video. Please upload video regularly plzzz dev. And thanks for your amazing content as always.

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

Thank you! I upload every Tues & Friday. Lately, Python on Tuesdays.

[@klenderXD]

So I am trying to add that only int can be used. So if I would type a letter or another character besides a number it would print to try again with a number. I have been trying for a while now but can't figure it out to add it in this code. I could use some help.

[@AliHasan-t3g]

the shtf+alt+arrowdown shortcut doesnt work on my laptop, any alternatives or a way to fix this??

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

Go the Selection menu in VS Code and choose "Copy Line Down". If the keyboard shortcut is different on your computer, it should list it to the right of the selection.

[@ColombianCatastrophe]

When I enter any 3 numbers in the terminal(1 for rock, 2 for scissors, 3 for paper) nothing happens. I am not sure what the issue is. Can anyone help?

[@lionex24]

did you ever figure out wat went wrong cus im on the same problem .

[@VictorChukwuemeka-o3x]

Nice video Dave but I am have trouble anytime I type computer it keeps showing that computer isn't defined

[@VictorChukwuemeka-o3x]

So I changed it to compter rather computer

[@japethspeaketh7034]

The sys.exit command isn't working. I entered a value other than 1, 2 and 3 and the programme still executed. It didn't exit the programme.

I am facing a problem with the "import random" module can anyone please help me here, the problem is " Lib andom.py" is overriding the stdlib module "random" " it is saying this when I am running this code along side Dave. my python version is 3.13

[@aswanivmanoj8115]

Thank u

[@johnaweiss]

12:19 i like python a lot. But i don't like the keyword `elif`. Why did they call it that? It's inconsistent. If you're going to say elif for elseif, then you should say el for else.

[@antwierasmus]

Hey Dave, thanks you for the contents and education, I have been learning a lot from all your videos. Please can you also teach us something about using react animation packages like react spring? I have been trying to read the docs and wrap my head around it, but everything seems complicated.

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

You're welcome and thanks for the request!

waiting for the best mentor DAVE GRAY to create a full stack project with react typescript as front end and python as backend and mongo db as database 🤲 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@DaveGrayTeachesCode]

Thank you for the request! That won't be part of this beginners series, but it could happen sometime afterwards. 🚀

[@PorterMesservey]

ANYONE WATCHING THIS IN THE FUTURE, IF YOUR IF STATEMENT ISNT WORKING AS EXPECTED, REPLACE THE "|" CHARACTER WITH THE WORD "or"

[@johnaweiss]

Personally, i would prefer arbitrary human-friendly labels, with embedded spaces if needed. I wouldn't display an enum or constant name to the user.

Hello brother, are you a Muslim?
