Python if else pass or continue after evaluating input

Beginning in Python programming? If else statement is quite a basic statement in any programming language.

If else is used in evaluating conditions or basically, it will tell the program what to do next if a specified match or input is encountered.

In if else statement, depends on the conditional statement that is set then the next logic will determine on what action or execution will be performed.

For example, after a match pattern occurs then the next statement will execute an action but sometimes after a match occurs you don't want to do anything instead the else statement will show what action or logic to be executed.

In Python "continue" statement does not mean that it will continue to execute the code after the "continue" statement, instead it will break that execution and goes to the top of the code and continue the next course of action.

However, "pass" statement in Python will mean literal "pass". So, if "pass" is used in an if else statement then it would mean it would bypass the "else" part and continue to the next statement after else.

 

Here's an example:

getinput = input("Please enter a letter:\n")

if getinput == 'x':

   pass

else:

   print ("Oops not x")  

print ("done")

  

Output if "x" is entered as input: (if an input matches 'x' else is bypass)

Please enter a letter:

x

done

>>>


Output if other letter is entered as input: (if input is not 'x' both else and last statement is printed)

Please enter a letter:

c

Oops not x

done

>>>

 Cheers...till next time. Stay safe and keep praying that this pandemic will end.

Print error 016-799 - Fuji Film Xerox

016-799 Fuji Xerox or Fuji Film print error code. That shows a description error as “Print instruction Fail detected in decomposer.” The error code and error description are alien languages for users and even system administrators who are not familiar with Fuji Xerox error code. The error code is quite simple and easy to fix, if the job print goes to the printer but print out doesn’t come out. So, basically the print job was received by the printer, but the printer just doesn’t know what type of paper or what size to use or which tray to utilize for the print out. In some instances, this is just a paper mismatch but the error description; if using Windows 10 to print does not exactly points to what is the issue. First thing to check, is the paper size selected by the user to print. Example, if the printer configuration is A3 and A4 sizes only. But then the person printing the file accidentally chooses “A4 Cover” then this error 016-799 will occur. ...

WMIC get computer name

WMIC get computer model, manufacturer, computer name and  username. WMIC is a command-line tool and that can generate information about computer model, its manufacturer, its username and other informations depending on the parameters provided. Why would you need a command line tool if there’s a GUI to check? If you have 20 or 100 computers, or even more. It’s quite a big task just checking the GUI to check the computer model and username. If you have remote computers, you need to delegate someone in the remote office or location to check. Or you can just write a batch file or script to automate the task. Here’s the code below on how get computer model, manufacturer and the username. Open an elevated command prompt and type:     wmic computersystem get "Model","Manufacturer", "Name", "UserName" Just copy and paste the code above, the word “computersystem” does not need to be change to a computer name. A...

Delete Directories with Wildcards using rd or rmdir

  Deleting files in command prompt using wildcards is quite straight forward. Command below will delete all text (".txt") files on the specified path.      Del D:\txtlog\*.txt Command above will delete all files with ".txt" extension in d:\txtlog directory. Easy enough to delete all matching files. Using the same method with rmdir or rd command this will not work. For example, if we have a directory on d drive that is auto-generated by an application and the filename is consistent with a pattern plus incrementing number at the end to differentiate the folder from other folders.    D:\baklogs\log1\    D:\baklogs\log2\    D:\baklogs\log3\    Etc..    D:\baklogs\log100\ The folder name has a consistent pattern that is preceded by the word “log” plus incrementing number. If the command below is executed to remove the directories in one go, an error is shown which h...
