Python programing general question about structure?
When i write something in python i find that it is many lines of control flow statements, comments, variable declartion etc. There are harldy any functions and none of my own modules are being imported. Its just a wall of code it seems. How is the best way to structure code in terms of breaking up control loops and functions into seperate modules and importing them into a main program? Should a main program just be made up of functions, that rely on imported modules? Is there someplace where i see some extensive code written in a nice way?

1 AnswerLanguages5 years agoDream interpretation?
In the dream i was watching a couple in a home (which did not look familiar). They were going through some problems and the wife was thinking of leaving, or maybe killing herself. The husband notices something outside in the back yard and goes to investigate. When he there the grimm reaper emerges out of woods and says he must kill the hsuband. The reaper appeared a sad that he had to do it but it was his job. The husband somehow became the incredible hulk and was battling the reaper. The were fighting along a rocky cliff. Next thing was the hulk was injured and lying face down, back in the original house, in bed crying, and about to give up. I though it was a little strange that the hulk didnt heal and just gave up

そう。じゃあ、ごはんの ときに ゆっくり きくわね。
The translation givin by the website is:
"Great. Well, let me hear all about it at dinner"
Where does yukkuri fit in? Would it mean "slowly listen" Also, how does the contents in the sentence change the person that is to do the listening. The speaker says "let me hear" when the literal translation looks like "slowly listen"...which makes me think its saying " slowly listen to me".
Would you be able to help me understand this?

クール で リアルな
Came across the above term. The translation website says "real cool". I would assume that "real cool" should simply be リアル クール.
Why is a で mixed in with the katakana? Is this normal? Same question goes for the な

1 AnswerLanguages7 years agojapanese language question/translation?
I am trying to translate the following:
「とても すくない」 と 「ほとんどいない」 の中間 くらい では あるまいか.
I assume it saids:
"Very few" , "rare" will it not be the middle?
There is no "と" after the second quote. Therefore, Is that really a quote?
Also, the の before chuukan, is that a nominalizer? If so why isnt it in the quotes fro hotondoinai? Lastly, what does "the middle" have to do with anything?
Thank you
