Add THIS To Your Python Scripts! if __name__ == "__main__" 

so can you have several `if __name__ == __main__` clauses that calls different functions in one script?

@@kimfom yes, but there is no point in doing so. You'd usually have all of your imports at the top, then all the stuff thats always executed, then you'd have your "if main", in which you'd call anything and everything that you want to be called only if used on it's own. But lets say you have some initialization stuff in the script, and in the middle of initializing, you want to set something differently if the script is called on it's own, then the rest of the init... and then maybe another block of code to be called only as main. // imports // init phase 1 ... if _name_ == '__main__': // change something.. // init phase 2 if _name_ == '__main__': // do something (print?) Thats a bit spaghetti, but yes, that would work.

@@MattCantSpeakIt Awesome! Thank you for your response

"it's own" -> its, *its*, ITS, without apostrophe, please. "its" is an adjective, a possessive determiner; "it's" is a shorthand for "it is" or "it has", the third person singular of the verb " to be" or "to have", respectively. It is (it's) really insane the amount of people on the web that write "its" instead of "it's" and vice versa. I suppose it is (it's) a problem that arises from automatic correctors, but it really takes no time to check. Even LLMs now sometimes write the one instead of the other due to the sheer amount of bad examples disseminated through all the web of people that make this mistake. It is (it's) bollocks. I am (I'm) sorry if I point out this fact under you comment. I do not know you, nor did I have the intension to do so. But enough is enough, I have (I've) seen too many wrong examples, and I cannot (can't) take it anymore; I had to comment to free myself of this burden. Please do not take it as a personal attack. Have a good day :)

@@OmegaQuark that is the reason you never get invited to parties bro

Clevon approves of this.

Thanks for the explanation. It helps. Interesting.

I found it more infuriating as to why you would execute a code on import? I'm a hardware kind of guy. If I wire chip 1 to chip 2 and ask chip 3 to execute what ever chip 2 can do, it will not start by saying: Ah I see chip 2 is connected to chip 1 so we better do what ever chip 1 is doing (unlocks device), chip 2 what do you do? security? 😳, what is my job? INTERFACE?!🤡 I'm pretty comfortable with basic, but anything above that I always get irritated: move A to B "well the developer expected you to do this before that... so you're expectations aren't real so we moved B to Z temporarly moved A to D, Y asked for C so K got B, now A and K are near each other so C can look at Z by looking at L, N always hold B so if you moved N to the left it would overwrite A".... because IF A = B was supposed to be written as IF [[ A = B ]]

synthwave 87' im pretty sure

@@harrydunlop7841 it's '84

try mili theme because It awesome. And made by me 🙂.

But with neon off

I'm confused about this too

Because he is running it from script2, which isn't the "main" (the condition is not met) and therefore it's only being ran from script2 ie. once

Looks like Synthwave'84, which is what I use.
