if you try to run this, I'm aware that the icon and music file will not
load because you don't have the file on your device, but if it somehow
works for you please let me know, and if you think there's any difference
between my code and when you ran it I need this figured out. Thanks

please excuse the def main() thing, this doesn't follow a tutorial this is
all on my own, and I don't know why the text displays when I close the
python window.
I appreciate all help :)

need help with a translation issue

[Quentin Bock]

I'm trying to take the user input and let them change the target language
or dest
code:

from deep_translator import GoogleTranslator
import googletrans
import sys

language_list = googletrans.LANGUAGES
print(language_list)

feedback = input("Would you like to translate a sentence of your own?
(yes/no)")

if feedback == 'no':
sys.exit()

while feedback == 'yes':

user_choice = input ("Enter a language (the abbreviation or correctly
spelled name of the language): ").lower()

user_sentence = input("Enter a sentence you want translated: ")

user_translation = GoogleTranslator(source='en',
target=user_choice).translate(user_sentence)

print(user_translation)

feedback = input ("Would you like to translate a sentence of your own?
(yes/no)")

if feedback == 'no':
sys.exit()
when ran, this will bring an error saying that your inputted language is
not supported
why is this?

https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

setting user input equal to target language in Google Translator

[Quentin Bock]

is it possible to set the target language of a translation to be the input
from a user?
I have tried inputting specific abbreviations that would normally be
accepted as the target language but it remains in Icelandic and I would
like to change the target language based on the user's input without
creating hundred of scenarios for each inputted language or country.
Thanks

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''

[Quentin Bock]

I receive this error when I try to open a file
The file (what I'm trying to open) is in the same folder as the program I'm
trying to open it from; why is it saying no such file or directory?

this is the only part of the code that causes the error

file = open('Egils Saga 1-15.txt', "r")

file.close()

translating external files type thing

[Quentin Bock]

okay, so I'm making a translating program, and I have files set to be
translated (they're in Icelandic) and I want all of them to be read in
English but I'm not sure how to open the files and translate them at the
same time. I'm also not even sure how to translate an external file
to English from another language.
I can't show code for this because I don't know if it's possible to do what
I'm asking.
Hopefully, this question is understandable
Thanks

googletrans problems in python

[Quentin Bock]

so I've been experiencing problems with googletrans in python and just
found a solution that actually works for me. If you have not tried this
option and are having problems with googletrans try this method:

*This may work for some and not other I'm too sure


install googletrans 3.1.0
using pip it should be like this
pip install googeltrans==3.1.0a0
this should give a working googletrans to those like me who were struggling
with finding a working version of it.

googletrans in python

[Quentin Bock]

Can someone explain the basics of googletrans in python?
I want to make a program that translates stories into English, but I'm not
sure how to get a translation printed. Also, is this needed to be done in
an HTML file inside python?
If so can someone provide basic code for a translation and how that should
be written and work?
Thank you

firewall in python

Is it possible to create a firewall inside python and then run that instead
of the windows defender firewall? If so how would that work or how would
that be made?

thought

[Quentin Bock]

Note: Previous comments have been made on this, this is my reply to another
response of this question.
I would have it so, the "admin" of the program would be able to change if
devices are allowed on that network, and would also be able to remove and
make certain devices always receive a password to input. It would not
involve reconfiguring the router, it would involve the devices attempting
to connect to it, but it wouldn't reconfigure the router itself; this would
merely provide another layer of security upon your wifi. I think that
certain features might rely on the reconfiguration of the router, but for
my question no I don't think it would.

thought

[Quentin Bock]

I had a recent thought about someone's wifi/network connection and password.
Could it be possible to create a program that will randomize a new password
every 24 hours (letters and numbers) and when the program is opened (or
notification would be sent) you can see the new password to log into the
wifi?
If so what would be required to do this, and what skillset would you need
to write this code if possible. If this isn't possible with python, then
what program is it possible with?

file location/directory

[Quentin Bock]

how can I change the path that python takes to run certain files, I'm
starting to create game and I want those in separate folders, so how can I
change it so that python runs the program with the files from that folder?

pygame font issue

Code that contains the problem:

score_value = 0
font = pygame.font.SysFont('freesansbold.ttf', 32)

error:

Can someone explain why it's saying font not initialized and provide a
solution?
I have tried typing in the direct file path of the font but that didn't
work, nor did using SysFont

trouble using pygame

[Quentin Bock]

So, I recently downloaded the pygame module, this code is from a youtube
tutorial by the way, I am following along the tutorial, the error involves
the pygame.init() and also says this:

import pygame

# Initialize Pygame
pygame.init()

#create the screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((800, 600))

# Game Loop
running = True
while running:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.quit():
running = False

The error says "partially initialized module 'pygame' has no attribute
'init' (most likely due to a circular import)

If someone could also explain what a circular import is and how to
avoid them within the future that would be great

Thanks :)

Problem with printing statement when condition is false

Okay so, this is my biggest project, I'm not advanced in Python in any
way so don't expect it to be perfect. I made a trivia game and for the most
part, it works but I can't get it to print "Incorrect" and then what the
answer was for all but one of my questions and I don't know why. I use
PyCharm as my IDE for his just as a heads up. I won't paste the code into
this because it's 164 lines so I will attach a file copy, please don't send
back the edited file only write them out and where I need to fix them,
thank you!
Stay Safe Everyone! :)

if grade >= 70:

How can I make this to say if your grade is 90 or higher BUT less than 100
you got an A,

Re: returning totals in functions of math

Ok, I don't know how to change add to accept an arbitrary number of
arguments (I'm pretty new) and as for total = 1 idk but it worked for other
versions of this (multiplication), and figured it might work for this one,
do you have any tips on what a better number might be for the total to
equal?

*   for x in numbers:*
*  total += 1*

returning totals in functions of math

[Quentin Bock]

Errors say that add takes 1 positional argument but 3 were given? Does this
limit how many numbers I can have or do I need other variables?
Here is what I have:
def add(numbers):
   total = 1
   for x in numbers:
  total += x
   return total
print(add(1999, -672, 84))

I have a multiply function above it but that was solved and I'm trying to
figure everything out for each of the different math functions.
