CPR

Dumb question but just need help. I’m failing cpr101 but can still pass with the final project, right now we’re in SDLC Testing but tbh I don’t understand anything, I don’t even remember most of the assignments and topics we did in class but I know I could still pass but won’t really learn much.

Do I need to send an application to the Service Hub if I am graduating this semester?

I found this link on the Seneca website https://students.senecacollege.ca/spaces/134/forms/wiki/view/2108/graduation-application saying that I have to email a form to the service hub if I want to graduate. I filled out the form and sent it to the service hub. But now the Service Hub rep is telling me that if I want a graduation letter I have to wait until I graduate. I double checked the form I sent them and its the general application form for graduation. I don't know if this specific rep just...

Do most students in the CPA program end up getting a paid co-op?

I have reviewed the requirements of what is need to be considered eligible for co-op. I am just curious as to how hard it is to earn one. Are the employment connections between Seneca and said Employers solid? Do they use an exclusive job board? On average, do most students succeed in gaining a relavant co-op?

Is this a dumb idea?

Hi all! I am not a programming student anymore but wanted to float an idea I had of a tool to build that would have helped me, especially when I started taking more online courses and was juggling school and work 🙂 I'm thinking about building a bot that could be scheduled to attend online class on your behalf and send a recording, transcript and summary when the class is over. You could configure it to be "obvious" that it is a bot (e.g. sending a message in chat on arrival), or go more "under the radar" (e.g. setting a looping video of you at your desk). Is this interesting or valuable? Would love to hear your thoughts. ...

Is it possible to remove the first item in a list in Python and still have O(1) run time?

I'm trying to remove the first item from a list in python, but I can't use pop(),append() or extend(). I tried using list splicing ,del list[index] and the remove method. But I found out that list splicing, the del method and remove method have a run time of O(n). Is there any other way to remove the first element in a list and still have an O(1) run time?

Need Advice Choosing Framework

I want to start a new project, and I want to build a website that includes both front-end and back-end. The problem I am facing is that I have never used a framework, and there are a lot of them for front-end. Can anyone suggest me a good, if not the best framework to use? It is important that the framework is supported and has a lot of resources in case I get stuck at some point and need to search for answers on the internet. I have ready learned basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and currently learning PHP....
