So for my summer task for A Level Computer Science before starting Year 12, I have been given a task where I have to convert a flowchart into pseudocode.
This is the task: https://www.leggott.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/SummerTask-JLC-Programming.pdf
So far I have got this:
// checking the patient's skin condition
skin_condition = input "Does skin appear normal? (Y/N)"
if skin_condition = N then
output "check pulse, call doctor"
endif
respiratory_status = input "Is the paitent breathing normally? (Y/N)"
// checking the patient's respiratory staus
if respiratory_status = N then
output "check for obstructions, call doctor"
endif
temperature = input "What is the patients body temperature?"
// checking the patient's body temperature
if temperature < 95 then
output "add additional blankets to warm patient"
endif
neurological_status = input "Can the patient move or respond? (Y/N)"
// checking the patient's neurological status
if neurological_status = N then
output "check consciousness, call doctor"
endif
cardiovascular_status = input "Does the patient have a normal pulse rate? (Y/N)"
// checking the patient's cardiovascular status
if cardiovascular_status = N then
output "check consciousness, call doctor"
endif
output "monitor patient every hour or as necessary"
I think you've got the general idea. Just a couple of points:
You never set skin_condition prior to using it.
You're asking for inputs before they're required in the flowchart (e.g. respiratory_status). Ask the question when you get to that point in the chart.

I have a text file that I want to open first for reading or writing, but want the user to manually enter the text_file name (which opens the file for reading) first like so:
def read_in_albums
puts "Enter file name: "
begin
file_name = gets().chomp
if (file_name == "albums.txt")
puts "File is open"
a_file = File.new("#{file_name}", "r")
puts a_file.gets
finished = true
else
puts "Please re-enter file name: "
end
end until finished
end
From this unfinished code below, selecting 1 would go to the above procedure. I want the user to select 1 first, and if they choose 2 without having gone through read_in_albums they just get some sort of message like "no file selected and sent back to menu screen.
def main()
finished = false
begin
puts("Main Menu:")
puts("1- Read in Album")
puts("2- Display Album Info")
puts("3- Play Album")
puts("4- Update Album")
puts("5- Exit")
choice = read_integer_in_range("Please enter your choice:", 1, 5)
case choice
when 1
read_in_albums
when 2
display_album_info
when 5
finished = true
end
end until finished
end
main()
The only thing I can think of is something like
when 2
if(read_in_albums == true)
display_album_info
and have it return true from read_in_albums.
which I don't want to do as it just goes through read_in_albums again, when I only want it to do that if the user pressed 1.
All of your application's functionality depends on whether the album data has been read. You are no doubt storing this data as an object in memory referenced by some variable.
$album_data = File.read 'album.txt'
You can test whether this data is present in order to determine whether the file data has been read:
if $album_data.nil?
# ask user for album file
else
# show album user interface
end
There is no need for a separate flag. The mere presence of the data in memory serves as a flag already.
You could either set a flag when option 1 was selcted
has_been_read = false
...
when 1
read_in_albums
has_been_read = true
when 2
if has_been_read
display_album_info
else
puts "Select Option 1 first"
end
Or just test if your file name is a valid string.
I was trying to replace certain selections of sounds with silences, but before I could get into the essential part, the "Get label from interval" command failed before I was able to check whether I'd obtained the correct output.
Error Message I've Got on Praat
I'd thought it was some problems with the toy audio I played with, so I switched to another one but strangely enough, every time I always got stuck with the third interval in the sequence. Screenshot available here:
The Third Interval was Strangely not Available
The code I'm using right now is quite simple as below:
There could be problems with how I process the intervals labelled as "sounding", but it should not be relevant to the error I got here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
soundname$ = chooseReadFile$: "Open a sound file"
sound = Read from file: soundname$
gridname$ = chooseReadFile$: "Select the corresponding TextGrid file."
grid = Read from file: gridname$
tier = 1
soundEnd = Get total duration
numOfIntervals = Get number of intervals: tier
writeInfoLine: "Number of Intervals:", numOfIntervals
appendInfoLine: "**** Starting to Replace Selected Sounds... ****"
for interval from 1 to numOfIntervals
appendInfoLine: "Interval#", interval
label$ = Get label of interval: tier, interval
appendInfoLine: "Interval#", interval, ": ", label$
if label$ == "sounding"
startTime = Get starting point: tier, interval
endTime = Get end point: tier, interval
newSilence = Create Sound from formula: "new_silence", 1, startTime, endTime, 44100, ~ 0
before = Extract part: 0, startTime, "rectangular", 1, "no"
after = Extract part: endTime, soundEnd, "rectangular", 1, "no"
selectObject: before, newSilence, after
new = Concatenate
Write to WAV file... "new".wav
removeObject: before, newSilence, after
endif
endfor
appendInfoLine: "Finish!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd suspected that it was because of my editing that some shifts occurred in the TextGrid-- however, since I only supplanted the sounds with silences that were of the same length, there should not be impacts on sounds or TextGrids afterwards. However, since I never had the chance to output some playable audio results, all I inferred above could not be corroborated by solid truth.
Thank you all so much for your kind attention and help in advance!
I have a bot that writes my message to a webpage. I want the message to be sent as one paragraph, but with the lines separated by a linebreak. However, when I actually run the code, the bot inputs and enters each line separately, instead of as one paragraph
I've tried messing with the linebreak formatting and string formatting, but the issue persists

I would like for the code to output the entire text as one block of text. However, instead, it outputs as separate lines.
Output currently looks like:
FREE BABY AVOCUDDLE - Thank you for your patience!
(enters this into text box)
To redeem your FREE avocuddle, just use the LINK IN OUR BIO and ADD TO CART - just cover shipping, no additional charges!
(enters this into text box)
etc.
Instead I would like for it to send as one message.
I am trying to count the correct inputs from the user. An input looks like:
m = "<ex=1>test xxxx <ex=1>test xxxxx test <ex=1>"
The tag ex=1 and the word test have to be connected and in this particular order to count as correct. In case of an invalid input, I want to send the user an error message that explains the error.
I tried to do it as written below:
ex_test_size = m.scan(/<ex=1>test/).size # => 2
test_size = m.scan(/test/).size # => 3
ex_size = m.scan(/<ex=1>/).size # => 3
puts "lack of tags(<ex=1>)" if ex_test_size < ex_size
puts "Lack of the word(test)" if ex_test_size < test_size
I believe it can be written in a better way as the way I wrote, I guess, is prone to errors. How can I make sure that all the errors will be found and shown to the user?
You might use negative lookarounds:
#⇒ ["xxx test", "<ex=1>"]
m.scan(/<ex=1>(?!test).{,4}|.{,4}(?<!<ex=1>)test/).map do |msg|
"<ex=1>test expected, #{msg} got"
end.join(', ')
We scan the string for either <ex=1> not followed by test or vice versa. Also, we grab up to 4 characters that violate the rule for the more descriptive message.
I have created a very basic script in pinescript.
study(title='Renko Strat w/ Alerts', shorttitle='S_EURUSD_5_[MakisMooz]', overlay=true)
rc = close
buy_entry = rc[0] > rc[2]
sell_entry = rc[0] < rc[2]
alertcondition(buy_entry, title='BUY')
alertcondition(sell_entry, title='SELL')
plot(buy_entry/10)
The problem is that I get a lot of duplicate alerts. I want to edit this script so that I only get a 'Buy' alert when the previous alert was a 'Sell' alert and visa versa. It seems like such a simple problem, but I have a hard time finding good sources to learn pinescript. So, any help would be appreciated. :)
One way to solve duplicate alters within the candle is by using "Once Per Bar Close" alert. But for alternative alerts (Buy - Sell) you have to code it with different logic.
I Suggest to use Version 3 (version shown above the study line) than version 1 and 2 and you can accomplish the result by using this logic:
buy_entry = 0.0
sell_entry = 0.0
buy_entry := rc[0] > rc[2] and sell_entry[1] == 0? 2.0 : sell_entry[1] > 0 ? 0.0 : buy_entry[1]
sell_entry := rc[0] < rc[2] and buy_entry[1] == 0 ? 2.0 : buy_entry[1] > 0 ? 0.0 : sell_entry[1]
alertcondition(crossover(buy_entry ,1) , title='BUY' )
alertcondition(crossover(sell_entry ,1), title='SELL')
You'll have to do it this way
if("Your buy condition here")
strategy.entry("Buy Alert",true,1)
if("Your sell condition here")
strategy.entry("Sell Alert",false,1)
This is a very basic form of it but it works.
You were getting duplicate alerts because the conditions were fulfulling more often. But with strategy.entry(), this won't happen
When the sell is triggered, as per paper trading, the quantity sold will be double (one to cut the long position and one to create a short position)
PS :You will have to add code to create alerts and enter this not in study() but strategy()
The simplest solution to this problem is to use the built-in crossover and crossunder functions.
They consider the entire series of in-this-case close values, only returning true the moment they cross rather than every single time a close is lower than the close two candles ago.
//#version=5
indicator(title='Renko Strat w/ Alerts', shorttitle='S_EURUSD_5_[MakisMooz]', overlay=true)
c = close
bool buy_entry = false
bool sell_entry = false
if ta.crossover(c[1], c[3])
buy_entry := true
alert('BUY')
if ta.crossunder(c[1], c[3])
sell_entry := true
alert('SELL')
plotchar(buy_entry, title='BUY', char='B', location=location.belowbar, color=color.green, offset=-1)
plotchar(sell_entry, title='SELL', char='S', location=location.abovebar, color=color.red, offset=-1)
It's important to note why I have changed to the indices to 1 and 3 with an offset of -1 in the plotchar function. This will give the exact same signals as 0 and 2 with no offset.
The difference is that you will only see the character print on the chart when the candle actually closes rather than watch it flicker on and off the chart as the close price of the incomplete candle moves.
