[Tutor] Pip issue
Hi all, I just joined since I'm new to working in python for data management and have been stumped on using pip. My understanding is that it should be in my scripts folder of Windows Python3.6 (downloaded from python.org), but it's not, so it doesn't work to run "pip install ". I see there's get-pip.py, but the documentation on using it is confusing. Thanks for your help.

Re: [Tutor] Tutor Digest, Vol 176, Issue 13
Also, try (works for me in Python3)
rivers = {'nile' : 'egypt', 'ohio' : 'US', 'rhine' : 'germany' }
for key, value in rivers.items():
print (key)
for key, value in rivers.items():
print (value)
for key, value in rivers.items():
print ("The " + key + " is in the country of " + value)

Re: [Tutor] Help please
The program works as is in Python3. For Python2, change input to raw_input
and see if that makes it work (I know it worked for me when I had Python2).
Also, it looks better to use " + " instead of a comma:
print("Combining these foods will you," + new_food)
Also, colons and spaces are good practices when using input boxes, such as
food_1=raw_input("Sushi: ")

Re: [Tutor] Python Help
Try this cleaned up version with colons in the right places, dollar signs
removed, and other corrections:
beefmeals=int(input("Enter number of beef meals: "))
shitmeals=int(input("Enter number of vegan meals: "))
party = beefmeals + shitmeals
print("Total meals", party)
a = 0
b = 0
c = 0
if party <= 50:
a=75
print("Room cost $75")
elif party <= 150:
b=150
print("Room cost $150")
else:
c=250
print("Room cost $250")
roomtax = party * 0.065
print("Room tx", roomtax)
print("Beef Meals", beefmeals)
beef = (beefmeals * 15.95)
print("Beef cost", beef)
print("Vegan Meals", shitmeals)
shit = (shitmeals * 10.95)
print("Vegan cost", shit)
cost=(beef + shit)
grat= cost * 0.18
print("Gratuity", grat)
GT = print("Grand total", grat + beef + shit + a + b + c)

You're right - GT is not needed. The print does work with or without "GT
=" in Python 3.6.5, though.

Re: [Tutor] Any 'graphical' ways of learning Python
I've liked turtle and make my graphing more interesting by asking for user input such as dimensions, then graph automatically. One starter source for using pygame graphics is https://inventwithpython.com/pygame/ It jumps into game writing very quickly, but provides explanations of commands. The one I'm working on now is using the arcade library developed by a python college professor: http://arcade.academy Many many examples of code (including videos of student projects) are provided to help you write games that resemble many of our favorites.
