C) In over my head making a SRCG (Shadowrun Character Generator) so with that in mind gave up making my python based SRCG. Instead I am making python Shadowrun utilities! The first of which was a program size and cost calculator for decker's utilities and skillsofts. (I always hated flipping back and forth in the book to figure it out). Thought I would let you see it and maybe critique? Be kind its first original program I have written. (Well thats not php or shell script). Doesn't look bad. However, you should aim to repeat yourself as little as possible, and the The program's[...] string is repeated 4 times. You should delay its display until the end of the program, like that: if rating 4: availability = 2/7 cost = rating * 100 # same for other options... # [skipping to the end of the program] print The program's Availability is , availability, days and costs , cost Of course, an even better way is to use string formatting in the print line. But that's not really important. -- Max maxnoel_fr at yahoo dot fr -- ICQ #85274019 Look at you hacker... A pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors...

Re: [Tutor] Shadowrun programs
I am on the other coast but I too am looking for a group to play Shadowrun with. With at least three people interested think we could either -- 1) Port or create a python based SRCG (useless python still has a challenge for a collaberative effort.) 2) Make a SR rpg (I was think of in the style of Rogue or net hack but could be something more in depth) 3) Fun and Profit! -err uhm something like it? man, I bought the first edition within weeks of it coming out. Spent part of junior high, high school and a little of college playing all 3 editions. Miss those days. *ANY OF YOU IN THE BAY AREA STILL RUNNING??* Enclosed is a cleaned up version using functions. This way, if you want you could support differing rule versions. Or play around with unit testing. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

My time is unfortunately limited. However, I am available for reviews, ideas, playtesting, etc. For the record, I am a Linux user so it would be nice if any GUIs used a cross-platform toolkit. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
