Sounds reasonable.

I get that, but I know that 0.1 also cannot be represented in binary so why does the computer NOT have a problem with doing 1/10?

I understand that some numbers cannot be represented in floating point but I don't understand why the way we obtain those numbers matters. In python, if I type print(0.1) or print(1/10) I get 0.1 but if I type print(0.3-0.2) I get 0.09999999... Why the difference?

If it makes you feel any better, Biden is very strongly anti-war. He was a critic of our ongoing wars in the Middle East and the last thing he wants is to get involved in another drawn-out conflict.

Yes, that is what I've been doing. I do have a heck of a lot of global variables which did seem awkward to me. I'll try the dictionary strategy and let you know how it goes.

I'm not using git. In fact, although I've heard it mentioned over and over, I'm not really quite sure what it is. I suppose my next step should be to look into it. Dropbox is where I've been keeping all my important files for many years. Guess I'll have to make a change.

Thanks for the help, @DaveC426913. What exactly do you need a screenshot of?

No, I'm not. Should I be? Here are some pics of the make_worksheet function if it's helpful.

Hello again @pbuk :) . I seem to be having the same problem even in the command prompt (except for the fact that running the master file from the command prompt did not stop other python files from working in vscode). Below are pictures of what's going on. I called my make_worksheet function to...

I have, yes.

Hi @Mark44. Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I'm still seeing the same behavior. It ran a couple times then stopped. I noticed something which might be a clue. I have a "make_worksheet" function which should generate as many versions of a worksheet as I want. After a couple run throughs with...

I have been using Visual Studio Code for a couple months now and it has been fine. When I want to run some code, there is usually a little green triangle button in the top right corner that I can click on. A few days ago, that triangle turned white only for Python files (it is still green for...

I'm sure I will have use for it once I'm more comfortable doing some very simple things. Thank you again.

I did see that stackexchange post but when I tried copying and pasting the code, it didn't work. I downloaded TeXMaker and tried following your instructions but I'm still getting the same error. Here's what I did... 1. I entered the PythonTeX user command. 2. I chose PDFLaTeX from the...

Thanks very much. This seems to Thank you very much. I feel like I'm getting closer to solving this problem but I still have some questions. You said you used the steps pdflatex test.tex, pythontex test.tex, pdflatex test.tex. I'm not sure what you meant by that. Do you mean you converted the...
