Maybe the owner couldn't get a pass through the lottery system

Anyone park at UniverCity for slightly over 2 hours (15-20minutes) consistently without getting a parking ticket? I have class at 230-430, but it takes me 5-7 minutes to walk to class.

highly unlikely imo. I got my parking permit the first time I tried for the lottery system which is last Fall. Then I tried the lottery system again in summer 2012 for fall 2012 just to experiment, I won the lottery but I didn't buy the permit. Then again last semester, I entered the lottery once again and won the lottery lmao, and I got the permit this time. So yea I think it's really easy to win the lottery

Its fine, you would be outraged at how i park there. For almost an entire term straight I parked and placed old tickets on the dash until i got a ticket one day. Now i just pay for an hour or two and park for like 3-4 hours.

Anyone good with basic python?
I'm kinda stuck :okay:

why don't you post problem and see if anyone of us can help you out.
It's been 3 years since I did python, but post it here and I'll take a look at it.

Spoiler!
I. QUESTION 1: The secret code – String and numeric: functions and methods
General description
Your program will ask the user (who is a student) his/her name, age and one
course he is registered to.
Then it will do calculations and show a secret code as detailed below.
The whole program only asks data to the user, calculates and prints results
once. To test many cases (for different user names, courses, etc) the user
needs to run the program several times.
More detailed description of the program to be implemented
a. Print a welcome message
b. Ask the user:
i. his/her name. Assume the user will type the name by typing first the
first name, then a space and then the last name. Assume the last
name has at least 2 letters.
ii. age. Assume the user types an integer number greater than 0
iii. a course the student is registered in. Courses codes are formed of
two parts separated by a dash (-). Both parts contain at least a
character. The first part will contain only letters. The second part
may contain all numbers or all letters.
For example, courses may be: CMPT-120, MATH-CALC, ART-1, X-1234
c. Create the secret code (as indicated below)
d. Print the secret code to the user.
Secret code
The secret code will be formed:
a.The first letter of the first name, followed by
b.the first two letters of the last name, followed by
c.the last letter of the last name
d.as many stars (*) as the integer part of the square root of the age,
followed by
e.the last letter of the course first part, followed by
f. (if the second part of the course is a number) the last course digit Page 2 of 3
g.if the length of the code (formed until and including part f) is an even
number then the code will additionally be followed by the letter “e”
Requirements
1. Follow exactly the problem description. Get inspired in the sample runs (you
can change the dialog with the user as long as the same information is
shown).
2. Include comments in your code, including the name/s of the author/s of the
program at the top.
3. You do not have to define functions to organize this program, but you may.
4. Include at least one intermediate printing showing intermediate results to
best follow and debug the program (see the TRACE message in the sample run)
5. Hint: Check the string methods (in the python library). In particular check
the methods find() and isdigit()
So here's where I'm stuck,
the user will enter their name as
Will Smith
or
Jackie Chan
I need a way of picking out the the first letter of the first name, first two letters of the last name, last letter of the last name. All the names will be in the same format (First Last) and it has to work with last names of just 2 characters.
Confused on how to get this to work. I set it up with the inputted name = to a variable. Then used the variable as a range and searched for the space but that didn't work.
Also I'm stuck on the course part but that's part of the above problem, I think if i can figure out the above I can figure out the rest

It's been a while, and I think python doesn't recognize whitespaces like traditional programs so you really can't use " " as a conditional.
What I would try using is the string constants like this:
for i in range(0, len(name) ):
if name.substring(i).whitespace():
print "space found!"
again, it's been a long time so it is a shot in the dark, becareful of using this though, because it also detects EOLs and tabs

off topic, why is your profile picture so much similiar to the one at 0.06 in this video.

I think he's talking about the ones near the UniverCity apartments...where it's free 2 hour street parking.

I don't think you read the question correctly.
He's asking for the first letter of the first name and the first letters of the last name and the last letter of the last name.
Ex.
Will Smith would turn into "WSMH" from Will Smith
I was thinking of something like
name=raw_input("What is your name?")
name[0]+[name[-1] for the first letter of the first name and the last letter of the last name but I can't figure out the first two letters of the last name.
