>write things out instead of doing this splitting and ranges shit. it's not much boilerplate at all
>consider using a list of tuples instead of tuple of lists
>rename Prefix -> Suffix. these are not prefixes
>rename basemap -> suffixes, logn -> log_n, logp -> log_p, logscale -> exponent
>consider binary=True instead of base=2. it's not like you're ever gonna generalize beyond 2 and 10. these are the only scales in common use

Actually scratch that. I've re-read the code and this was a brain fart on my part. I was thinking about the number instead of the unit after the prefix.

You raised event outside try/catch. Yes, this works, but bubbling when dealing with larger projects won't tolerate this well. Async and generators come to mind. If you passed base 3 or None into the function won't raise a ValueError like it should.

I assume he gave the log thing. Python can't floating point.
bisect(list(range(0, 27, 3)), log(1000, 10)) returns 1.
Feels like the correct solution should be 1000 = 1K and not 1000. Especially if 1001 is going to return 1K with your sig figs.

using Scale and scale is annoying to me, but I am sure nobody else would care.

your

shit is dumb as fuck anyway, you don't even need to specify the separator for this to work, and your trailing whitespace is unnecessary too.

Here's mine:

    for unit in ["  B", "KiB", "MiB", "GiB", "TiB", "PiB", "EiB", "ZiB"]:
        if abs(iSize) < 1024.0:
            return f"{iSize:5.4g} {unit}"
        iSize /= 1024.0
    return f"{iSize:5.4g} YiB"

Less, features, yes, but any idiot can immediately understand it, eventhose who don't use Python on a regular basis.

>>101557020
>>101557075
It might be doing an internal strip() if you don't specifiy a separator, you need to check the reference manual.
This is the "spooky" shit you gotta be aware of in Python.
An experienced programmer would probably do " Ki Mi..".strip().split(...) intuitively, to avoid "spooky" behaviour from even occuring.

Terry was right

Actually both, and I actually work as a programmer, so I don't need to prove anything.
Oh, and I actually did say it has less features (OP's has an arbitrary base), and anyone non-retarded can also immediately see my code is excellently suited to expand.
I've, so far, only required 2^10 prefixes, because my code is actually used IRL.

Prolly the life-story of every second self-taught out there.
The real self-taughts, the ones who learned all that shit as kids, just so they can mod their retarded computer games.
The ones who learn Python as a side-effect, using it just to script building the mod together.

We are, on average, the most competent, maybe society will stop thinking the exact opposite some day.
Because that dude, who obviously was a jock in high school, obviously just did CS because he thought it was a safe job.

I wasted five years of my life thinking I was not 1337, don't let it happen to you, if you were like me, you will be surprised just how retarded the average person actually is.

Bad error handling, this doesn't even need to be fallible just return the number with None for the prefix. It's also really dumb building static data at startup by string parsing, it's slow and pointless. It would also make more sense to write a unit test than a docstring comment that shows expected output

>>101557261

I don't like people dunking on undergrads. Calling OP a tryhard/idiot was out of line. If he is going to claim superiority he needs to bring it.

Imagine he just gets praise, and starts coding like this in the job, because he thinks it's good.

I wouldn't be impressed, I'd say
>Yeah, Anon, very nice, it seems to work, but I hate you for having to read that all, and either I'm forced to read it now or I will neglect my job of proof-reading and just wink it through, causing possibly planes to fall out of the sky one day

Your type is sometimes worse than the actual evil ones, because at least they do not think of themselves as being on a righteous crusade.

Alignment example:

some_example_function_name(some_other_function(argument_1),
                           argument_2 + some_math_thing)

Indentation example:

some_example_function_name(
    some_other_function(argument_1),
    argument_2 + some_math_thing
)

I used to like code alignment as a younger programmer, but at some point I realized that it doesn't actually add readability, it just adds extra diff churn and extra work when refactoring. So I avoid it completely now. Completely up to personal preference though, I know some programmers who are skilled and still like it.

>>101557399
Nah, I think it's usually better to fail with an error than to return None. Not always, but a good default.
Time for string parsing at startup is literally a non-issue, but I do agree this is just overcomplicating things. Just hardcode a list, not that hard to press " a couple times.

I shit you not, it was a fucking joke.
I'm EFL in Germany and I had to take English IT classes.
I was thinking: I should be standing there.

That's just the most egregious example, only in business classes was I on almost equal footing to the teacher, he was 40 years my senior and worked for banks and shit and was doing this as fun after retiring, but as the right-hand man for the boss at my former job, I knew a thing or two as well.

I quit college and went to work, and after I quit, all I have is basically a Baccalauréat/Abitur, so I thought I wasn't worth anything... hence me ending up in those IT classes.

>>101558209
*I basically ended up started an own company, then covid came, then doing business as a "rabid anti-vaxxer" [your words] was pretty much impossible, so I've been NEETing around since.

I tried to get a job two years ago, applied four times, got three replies, three interviews, two offers (first one wanted to take me on the spot), ended up doing something for three days, before quitting again, because, no... I just can't deal with normies anymore.

Not sure if I'm going to be NEETing to the day I die, let's see.

Stop trying to be clever. Write simple code that can be reasoned about as locally as possible.

from math import log

SI_PREFIX = ('', 'k', 'M', 'G', 'T', 'P', 'E', 'Z', 'Y')


def prefix(n: int, /, *, si_units: bool = True) -> tuple[str, float]:
    if n == 0:
        return '', 0.0

    base = 1000 if si_units else 1024
    m = min(
        int(log(abs(n), base)),
        len(SI_PREFIX) - 1,
    )
    n /= base ** m

    unit = SI_PREFIX[m]
    if m and not si_units:
        # upper() handles case difference between "KiB" and "kB".
        unit = unit.upper() + 'i'

    return unit, n

I mean, these two are kinda correlated, so I don't have a guilty conscience about it, either.

>>101559340
Focusing on syntax over semantics is a trait of beginners who suck at programming. If you were smart and actually programmed in all three languages, you would know that Python and Scheme are actually similar in many ways below the surface level. One would have to be utterly retarded to love one but hate the other.

>>101559340
>>101559369
On the other hand, Lua has different semantics that make it much harder to debug programs than in Python or Scheme, for no good reason. It belongs on the trash heap of bad languages together with Perl and old PHP.

>>101559369

I don't care how much cope you produce, writing and especially reading with whitespace involved is like pulling teeth. I can very easily read a Scheme program, I can easily read a Lua program, I'd rather get hit with a hammer than read a Python program.

>>101559340

Do you not indent your code?

>>101559454
Ah, you are legitimately retarded then or just started programming this year. Real programmers know that you can get used to pretty much any syntax in two weeks flat. Reading your cope is like reading someone bitching about parentheses in Lisp, honestly.
Syntax is just a coat of paint over semantics. Anyone who thinks it's the most important think about a language is a beginner and his opinion should be discarded. Actual competent people consider things like the type system and module system of a language more important, as they affect the experience of working a large program much more.

Yes, there are days when I think or feel like I'm fucking ugly or filthy, and some women apparently don't, and some might think I'm being rejective, if I'm really actually just ashamed of being a mess in that moment.
But the odds are definitely in favor the women will take it personally.

Anyways: Who, here, failed to construct a theory of mind?
And why does everybody believe it is me?
She is equally at fault for failing to consider what be on my mind.
She'll probably go home thinking she's ugly and more damage is probably done that way than if I keep it together for a second.

Oh, I know.
People who talk like you do are literally never as smart as they think they are. You've just taken your autistic traits as a proof of your intelligence, dismissing people who are both intelligent and into normie stuff like small talk. Ironically, an idea you probably got from pop culture - most writers don't know how to depict characters who are both conventionally intelligent and socially normal, so they fall back on cliches like Rain Man and Sherlock Holmes. This then got reinforced by hanging out with the retarded teenagers of 4chan, who just post the edgiest thing that comes to mind because they think it makes them look cool rather than immature. Until it was a self-reinforcing loop where you preemptively do stuff that makes people reject you, which you take as a further sign of being some kind of misunderstood genius meme. I bet you identify with the movie Joker too.
I know this because I was just like you when I was a teen. You can either drop the cope and the superiority complex, or sink deeper into being an abrasive loner that nobody wants to know. Your choice.

Their conclusion is wrong, because their assumption, that I want what they want and that I got what it takes to get it, is false to begin with, and I just gotta shut up about it, because there are just too many like that.
But it does not mean I am wrong.

I wouldn't recommend believing things that are false, no. But there's also no need to go to the other extreme and make your self-imposed isolation worse by leaning into some kind of le misunderstood genius trope, probably made worse if you spend many hours per day on /g/, a website where people who fail socially and have no technical skill use edginess to cope.
It would also be mistake to dismiss normies as being dumb. I've met many people who were rather intelligent while also enjoying small talk and not wanting flaunt their intelligence, or spend their entire life in front of a computer or books. It was the clearest to me when hanging out with art people, compared to normies in business and medicine. Many art people had some thing going about how they were le quirky and misunderstood, inserting pretentious humanities jargon like "intersectionality" and "commodification" into conversations, while in reality their views were basically copy/pastes of one another. On the other hand, the turbonormies who went into medicine or business for the money had far more nuanced views of the world and more varied interests.
Also, Einstein was most likely autistic and that guy had a rich and rewarding social life. If you're so high IQ, why can't you?

You're trying too hard to sound smart. 4chan is not movie dialogue. Dial it down a bit.

>>101555376
Function names like "prefix" are pretty vague. I can't tell what OP's code does at a glance.

>>101566538
>What went wrong (if you don't mind sharing)?
You're still convinced you're right.
>misunderstood genius trope
Every genius is misunderstood, they just sometimes dumb things down enough for everbody to kinda get what they're thinking, and that's when everybody realizes they're geniuses.
They might just walk around looking like you and me, or maybe not, who knows what correlation exists.
>Einstein
Counter-example: Tesla and Newton.
Again, no correlation (if you're looking for one possible one: Einstein was ruthless, Tesla and Newton both give off "couldn't hurt a fly" vibes).
>You're trying too hard to sound smart.
My nigga, I use the keyword 'Chaos Theory' (actually I just meant the Butterfly Effect; if I were tryharding, I likely would not confuse the two) to compress what I would need five sentences to explain in one or two words.
If you cannot get the gist of it from that, one might think I'm trying to sound smart, sure.

Let it die already, there aren't any tropes about me (yet), and you're trying to find one to fit me in, because it seemingly explodes your view of the world to take my words as they are.

>>101568644
>You're still convinced you're right.
*You could've asked what changed.
>Counter-example
Add Perelman to the list.
Him and Diogenes are kinda my idols; I'm not as hardcore as them, but I admit both have very valid points.
>there aren't any tropes about me (yet)
If I'd do everything you ask me to, I'd end up being a Mary Sue.

Yes. You are just like me when I was younger and more self-absorbed.

Yes, how many good candidates were removed from posts because they could not be controlled.

And you like me when I was younger.
So, which is, per se, actually a juvenile way to be?
What does that even mean?

You're a little bit more than a midwit, maybe, or a just midwit, sorry.
Are you vaxxed?

>Are you vaxxed?
You see, that's where geniuses and retards meet again, and midwits fall through.
The retards are the broken clocks, meaning their behaviour is entirely up to chance, meaning midwits perform worse than random chance in choosing the correct medication.

This is all due to them not only being midwits, but monkey-see, monkey-do patterns among them.
The pleb, like I said, is operating with random chance, it does not know what it is doing, and is the baseline, midwits perform worse and actual smart people, who know they are smart and have the confidence to believe in themselves and what they think, are above that baseline.

>>101571176

Oh OK, so you have some persecution fantasy going on with le evil society wanting to control you and get you vaccinated. That's disappointing to hear. Do you use /pol/, by any chance?

"Python uses a brute force O(n2) algorithm for quotients of any size."
you're in the wrong here buddy

>>101571371
Well, I'll just ignore Poe's Law and presume that you are indeed just shitposting at this stage and are no longer required to entertain your posts as if you are retarded and deserve to hear what you are doing wrong.

>>101571419
Oh noo, what will I do without your tremendous insight.
Be careful, if you say the wrong thing then you may get vaccinated by the secret agents who are in your walls and want to control you.

Undergrads typically don't have enormous programming experience and need some hand-holding. Utterly shocking, I know.

>>101571445
Ok, I'll try:
You are retarded like a monkey trying to stick its dick into a blender.

I'm not really good at insults, because everyone worth insulting, isn't worth spending time thinking about...
Ehh, whatever.

>>101571479
Eh, I was just shitposting a bit because I found it genuinely funny that THIS is your grudge against society. After so many posts typing like you're a movie villain, I expected something bigger. Maybe people shot your dog and raped your sister or something. But the big reveal was that... you're still seething about vaccines in the year 2024 lmao
Anyway, looks like we're both shitposting now. Take care. Hope you don't NEET too long. It's pretty miserable after the first 6 months, speaking from experience.

wtf does it do? prefix? not a very clear function name.

>>101554267
basically, would give you an F for this.

it took me like 5 minutes to figure out what that scrible does. it's converting bytes to more human readable output. And yet you chose to call this fucking function suffix?

it should be called formatBytes or something like that. Naming is most important, if you cant do that, you shouldnt be programming desu. Are we supposed to look at your fucking implementation to figure out what this is?

>>101554267
IDK what your professor values, but I'd reject this change in code review. Very obscure behavior and no comments explaining why it needs to work the way it does. The simplest solution is some kind of divide-by-bytes-until-you-can't. Adding logarithms is excessive and requires you toss in even more magic numbers to make everything behave properly.

This is on top of the fact that there's a very obvious bug, namely that you don't try to validate base. Enter in a number besides 2 or 10 and your function will terminate on the first line with an unhelpful error. Functions should protect their callers from doing obviously incorrect things, and yours doesn't.

On top of all this, why go to all this trouble just to force the caller to format the string? Is adding the character B too much to ask for? Weird, weird stuff.

I can only hope all of this is because the assignment was something like "use logarithms and bisect in order to SPECIFICALLY return the PREFIX for some bytes" and not because you decided this was the best approach on your own.

>>101577897
It's worse than that, even the implementation is non-obvious. Would you be able to tell whether the logscale for 10 should stop at 16 or 17 when you're just skimming the code? Or do you need to think for a moment?

And hmm, wouldn't you know it, when I write this up in a Python playground, it stops finding the right base 10 scale at P:

>1234567890.12PB
>1.02ZiB

Who ever could have guessed this would happen!?

Absolute F. Wrote code so overcomplicated that nobody in this thread even noticed that it DOESN'T FUCKING WORK!

>>101578021
>>101578028
Oh lol, now that I look at it again I fatfingered the wrong number in the 10 scale (27 -> 17). It works after all. Magic numbers are still for cocksuckers.

>>101578021
whats worst, my fucking CEOs will hire that guy right out of college and I will have to deal with him lol.

already dealing with several of them, letting the codebase degrade basically. Fuck the CEOs and fuck programming.
