function - Why is this returning two values? Easy python beginner -


can please explain why enter method in following class returning 2 values? i'm learning python , in process of creating simple game grasp oop , classes. anyhow need enter method return random snippet snippets list. keep getting 2 snippets instead of one. can explain why? 

    sys import exit     random import randint       class island(object):      def enter(self):      pass      class loser(island):     snippets = ["welcome loser island",             "can't win them all",              "there's next time"]                 def enter(self):        print loser.snippets[randint(0,len(self.snippets)-1)]      loser_test = loser()   loser_test.enter()

generally, you'll create class , describe behavior , contents of instance of class. instance of class object type class. example, john = person('john', 'doe') create person object, sending 'john' , 'doe' object's __init__ method (a constructor).

the following sticks instances of class making use of word self. self not keyword (like in); it's word object's description uses refer object itself. can use word (like xyz in for xyz in [1,2,3]), self preferred.

>>> import random >>> class l(object): ...     def __init__(self): ...             self.snippets = ["welcome", "can't", "there's"] ...     def enter(self): ...             print (random.choice(self.snippets)) ... >>> l = l() >>> l.enter() there's >>> l.enter() there's >>> l.enter() welcome >>> l.enter() can't >>>

what this? this number of answers warnings, errors , notices might encounter while programming php , have no clue how fix. community wiki, invited participate in adding , maintaining list. why this? questions "headers sent" or "calling member of non-object" pop on stack overflow. root cause of questions same. answers questions typically repeat them , show op line change in his/her particular case. these answers not add value site because apply op's particular code. other users having same error can not read solution out of because localized. sad, because once understood root cause, fixing error trivial. hence, list tries explain solution in general way apply. what should here? if question has been marked duplicate of this, please find error message below , apply fix code. answers contain further links investigate in case shouldn't clear general answer alone. if want contribute, please add "favorite" error message, warning or notic...

c++ - Why doesn't unordered_set provide an array access operator -

i'm curious why stl container unordered_set , has constant time complexity random access on average, not provide method accessing elements distance first element in container. example: t& unordered_set::operator[](size_t index) { return *(begin() + index); } accessing element "by distance" implies there meaningful way measure distance. trouble std::unordered_set is is, well, unordered . hence, there no meaningful way of explaining "some distance beginning" in non-arbitrary way. if want access distance, copy data vector: std::vector tmp(unordered.begin(), unordered.end());
