Question

Can anyone tell me where can i find the instructions to begin problem set 0??.. I see the PDF instructions but no how to?

Answer 1

Problem set 0 if I remember right is how to install the software and run a "Hello World" application just to make sure everything works properly.

There has to be step by step instructions in the PDF.

Answer 2

Microbot's right. It's all explained in the pdf.

Answer 3

I have printed out the problem sets/assignments, and looking at them and after watching the lecture video, here is what you need: ```mystring=``` commands for your code, followed by ```print mystring(xx)``` and it should run. The purpose of it is two-fold: (1) downloading and installing the software program, and to enter and print your name (which is the assignment..."Hello World" was used as an example in the lecture video). This was hard for me also, and I had to do the video over again and again to catch what I was missing....Your lines of Code should equal to 2 or 3 lines at most, depending on how you write it...I wrote mine in 3 lines (for some oddball reason that I've yet to figure out!), and it worked just fine for me. IF you need any more help, feel free to contact me. Good Luck!

Answer 5

Hi Jonathan, I actually used these 3 lines of code to complete the problem set 0..

x = raw_input ('What is your date of birth ?')
y = raw_input ('What is your last name?')
print y + x
