Ethan,

As a new member of this group, I am not sure on how to report unacceptable 
behavior. If this is not the correct way, I apologize.

Please check the following thread:

Find the number of robots needed to walk through the rectangular grid

I believe there was some unnecessary rudeness on the part of one of the 
respondants to the original post

Certainly not, but as Random832 says, you can politely say No.

I realize there is no minimum requirement for social etiquette to be a good 
programmer. Or a bad one, for that matter. But if the purpose of this group is 
to help others with Python, simple courtesy seems to be common sense.

No, this was a different poster. And, thanks, Chris, for the email address. I 
will give it a shot.

I reread the thread. It was Mark. I mixed him up with the Thomas that was the 
person mentioned at the beginning of this thread.

Is anyone in this group using Python Editor v5 for Chromebooks?

2016-03-13 Thread Jeff Schumaker
I'm trying to use Python Editor v5 for Chromebooks. It works fine, except it 
won't read data files. I'm just wondering if anyone else is using this editor 
and has found a solution to this problem.
