    At best, Zen is going to be as good as a Haswell CPU. So you might as well just go and buy that, rather than waiting for Zen. Or, get a Skylake CPU and have even better performance.
     
    So no, no point in waiting for Zen.

    8enjicraf2 got a reaction from EpicGeekonFire in Installing Android 5.1.1 back on my Moto G 3rd gen?   
    Hey, have you tried searching for the firmware (google Moto G 3rd gen firmware)? That's all I have to to with my galaxy s5, but it is probably different. If you can find something you will have to flash it from your PC. It doesn't void the warranty as far as I am aware but it is nothing for someone with lack of experience.
     
    [EDIT]
    Quick search on XDA finds that you can put the firmware on an SD card and install it through stock recovery:
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639
     
    I am unaware of your knowledge with phones but some help: If you have the 8GB model you will have 1GB of ram, also take extra care and make sure you get the right model number from XDA, failing to do so could potentially brick the device. Find the model number in Settings/About Device/Model Number.

    both are right
    in most programming languages you need to use the ()
    not in python because its easy
     
    so technically using () is unnecessary but does not affect the code or processing time at all

    8enjicraf2 reacted to Nineshadow in Python Help   
    It's the same thing.
     
    It's just that the if statement in Python doesn't require parenthesis. Instead, they are used in expression delimitation. In your case , it is unnecessary, but at the same time doesn't make the code any less efficient neither at compile (interpret) time and even more so nor at run-time.

    8enjicraf2 reacted to impure in Python Help   
    Just because code runs and is efficient doesn't make it good. I believe the second one is more readable and, barring any style requirements, is better. However if you lose marks for this your teacher is a jerk.

    8enjicraf2 reacted to madknight3 in Python Help   
    Both are accepted by the interpreter because parentheses are a valid way to group expressions and modify the order things are executed. Putting everything inside one set of parentheses is valid but redundant.
     
    Whether or not someone think it aids code readability is more personal preference than anything. Personally, I don't think it adds any benefit to readability in the above example and would leave them out. This difference of opinion is why programmers in a team are often required to follow coding style guidelines. It helps keep the code more consistent.
     
    Some teachers will give style guidelines but I expect most wont. If the class wasn't informed of style expectations then it seems unfair to have marks taken away for something like the above example (at least on the first offence).
     
    There are certainly many languages that require the parentheses however there are also many languages that don't. Ex: Python, Ruby, Lua, Go, Swift, Rust, VB.NET, F#, Haskell, Elm, Perl (version 6), etc.
     
    I expect it'd be valid code in most of them to use parentheses as well, but it doesn't mean that's how you should write them.
     
    Not in python because its easy it was a language design choice to exclude them.

    Hello! As a fellow programming student I'm hoping I can shed some light onto why the instructor would actually take points off for this.

    Lately we have been discussing a study (I'm sorry I haven't yet been able to find the link myself, so I cannot offer it yet) that shows that for a majority of "keyboard time" programmers are actually reading code. This could be for debugging reasons, or any other.
     
    I believe that using extraneous markup could warrant a point deduction if for no other reason than it could potentially slow someone up who was reading it, and came across an unexpected character. There are also extra keystrokes, but I'm not about to wholeheartedly defend labeling two extra key presses as inefficient. I think the more pressing issue is to try to conform to standards that are widely accepted, if not required by a compiler/interpreter. In the case of Python that means you don't see parenthesis or brackets to the extent you would in a C-style language like Java.
     
    We've always had it explained to us that in the perfect world of academia the expectations are sometimes significantly different than the requirements of real world development. In that particular case there is no need for the parenthesis, and since we are dealing with the "perfect world" scenario simply remove them. I believe madknight3 said it more succinctly, so I quoted their post in case mine was too long winded and rambling.
