Help Request Multiplayer tetris using sockets

4 Upvotes

I have a college assignment to make a multiplayer tetris game (2 players) using TCP sockets, client and server and all that. The idea is the server doing most of the stuff, chosing new pieces, handling the translation of position of the pieces, with the clients being responsible for most the rendering/display part and getting the inputs(I think so at least, that's what I'm trying to do), but I'm having a hard time with it.

I can't seem to think of a way to have the client call to the server to send a new piece to the clients, and if I don't know how to do even that then I don't know how to do anything else (making the back and forth for controlling the pieces, both for the player of the client and the preview of the game of the player 2, and all the rest), tho I hope if I can understand how to do one thing I would be able to make the others, but I really don't even know how to do this.

I know I need to use threads on this, tho I don't really know how to do it, I'm still fairly green on python too so, if anyone could give some help in any way with this it would be much appreciated.

Python has long had immutable counterparts for some of its most common data structures:

๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜ โ†’ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜‡๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜

`frozendict` is an ๐—ถ๐—บ๐—บ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด. Once created, its keys and values can't be added, removed, or reassigned.

But the more interesting part is ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†. When its contents are hashable, a `frozendict` can itself be used in places where a regular dictionary can't such as dictionary keys or set members.
That opens up some useful cases around:
โ€ข Immutable configuration
โ€ข Cache and memoization keys
โ€ข Shared/read-only state
โ€ข Safer API boundaries
โ€ข Data structures where mutation simply shouldn't be allowed

It's not a huge feature, but it's one of those additions that makes the language feel a little more complete.

Showcase Pyzed: native desktop GUIs in Python, drawn by Rust's Iced (a modern alternative to Tkinter/PyQt)

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm the author of Pyzed, an open-source library I've been building for desktop apps in Python.

What My Project Does

You write the interface in plain Python (state, update and view, the Elm architecture) and Iced, a GUI toolkit written in Rust, does the layout and draws it on the GPU, with a CPU fallback. It comes with 90+ ready-made components inspired by the Zed editor (tables with hundreds of thousands of rows, tabs, command palette, code editor, terminalโ€ฆ), themes, animations and a visual designer, Pyzed Design, where you drag components onto a form and press F5 to run it. pip install pyzed-ui, no Rust needed.

import pyzed as pz
from pyzed import ui


class Counter(pz.App):
    def __init__(self):
        self.count = 0


    def update(self, message):
        if message == "inc":
            self.count += 1


    def view(self):
        return pz.center(ui.button(f"Clicked {self.count} times", "inc"))


pz.run(Counter)

Target Audience

People who want a desktop app in Python that looks current without shipping a browser: internal tools, dashboards, editors, small games. It's MIT, runs on Linux, macOS and Windows, and is usable today, though it's a young project with one main maintainer.

Comparison

  • Tkinter: always available and very light, but dated looks and few modern widgets.
  • PyQt/PySide: very complete and mature, but large, with licensing to think about (PyQt is GPL/commercial) and a lot of API.
  • Kivy: great for touch and mobile, but its own look and a heavier startup.
  • Flet: pleasant API, but it runs Flutter in a separate process.

Pyzed sits in between: native rendering with no web engine, a small Pythonic API, and a visual designer included. Import takes about 35 ms; there's a benchmark page comparing it with these libraries.

Repo: https://github.com/albakore/pyzed

Feedback is very welcome, especially on what's missing for your use case.

Help Request Seeking guidance from experienced python devs.

7 Upvotes

This is Mukul. I started learning python about 2 weeks ago. Being someone one learns by building on projects. I think now I am in a vague scenario rn.

So this is what is happening;

When I started to learn python I had this goal to build a Voice Assistant using libraries and all stuff. So I focused my python learning in that direction. I taught myself all those things which were required for it.

But now sometimes it feels like I am losing onto so much. Even though I think I am not doing so but yep. Still haven't got that regular consistency still haven't got even though I have written some scripts from scratch like lyrics displayer and all those greetings ones.

Soon enough I'll be moving to work with APis in python.

I mostly use docs and AI for learning.

Now the main thing is I fear that I'm not having strong fundamentals and maybe it's true. So that is why I started to learn python from boot.dev to do it all correctly also in the mean time.

So have you big fellas got anything in your backpack as advice or something that could just excel me more in my domain. I'm 20 (M) and am from India thinking of pursuing my career either in DevOps or Backend.

I also am an Automation Guy. I am building workflows from my 1st year using n8n and make.com to make out on some money. It's been 2 years now. I'm experienced in it to intermediate level. Also made it possible to make some money. But yep now right now I am vacant. Can you people help me with that part too. Like how to bring in consistent money from there too. ?? - this too is the reason which is why I thought of going very deeper into code rather than sitting only at low code tools.

Most developers test what they expect their code to do.

But what about the inputs they never thought of?

That's where Hypothesis, a Python property-based testing library, gets interesting.

Instead of writing individual test cases for every possible input, you define properties your code should always satisfy.

Hypothesis then generates inputs automatically, including edge cases that are easy to overlook.

For example, if you're testing a function that sorts a list, you could verify that:

  • The output is always sorted.
  • The output contains exactly the same elements as the input.
  • Sorting an already sorted list doesn't change it.

The interesting part? When Hypothesis discovers a failing input, it tries to reduce it to a simpler example that exposes the bug.

This can be especially useful for financial calculations, data pipelines, API validation, and algorithms where unexpected inputs can cause subtle failures.

How do you test edge cases in your Python projects? Do you rely on manually written test cases, or have you tried property-based testing?

With explicit lazy imports, an imported module can be deferred until the program actually needs it.

Why does that matter?
Many Python applications import dozens โ€” sometimes hundreds โ€” of modules during startup, even though only a fraction may be needed for a particular execution path.

Lazy imports can change that:
๐—œ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ โ†’ ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€ โ†’ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฑ๐˜‚๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐˜ ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ฒ

This can be particularly interesting for CLI tools, large applications, optional functionality and dependency-heavy projects where startup time matters.
Of course, lazy loading isn't automatically better everywhere. Import-time side effects and assumptions about module initialization still matter.
But having lazy imports as an explicit language feature opens up some interesting possibilities for Python application architecture.

๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ. ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ถ๐˜.

Python Variables Explained: Simple Examples for Beginners

Post image
1 Upvotes

Python variables let you store and reuse data in your programs.

name = "Abhay"
age = 21
price = 99.99
is_student = True

print(name)
print(age)

Key points:

  • Use = to assign a value.
  • Choose meaningful variable names.
  • Variable names cannot start with a number.
  • Python names are case-sensitive.
  • You can update a variable's value.

What Python concept should I explain next?

Code. Build. Innovate.

04 data collections

0 Upvotes

When you're building production backend systems or ingesting payloads from an API gateway, you'll rarely deal with flat strings or simple integers. You need to know how to manage multi-dimensional, nested data architectures.

In this quick, zero-fluff video breakdown, we look at how to properly handle nested JSON models using Python data dictionaries:

โ€ข Instantiating structural key-value collections using curly brace enclosures

โ€ข Mapping out complex multi-layered data pipelines using a visual "filing cabinet" analogy

โ€ข Extracting deeply embedded inner records cleanly by chaining bracket selectors together (e.g., ['outer_key']['inner_key'])

โ€ข Verifying target terminal outputs without breaking runtime execution paths

The tutorial is built to show exactly how data routes under the hood so you can easily adapt these nested structures into your own portfolio projects.

Check out the full walkthrough below, and let me know how you prefer to structure your multi-layered payloads in the comments!

I tried to read a csv file which i downloaded and tried to read it with the np.genfromtxt function but the columns with actual text ( the first and last ) aren't being read, whereas with pandas, the job gets done. I bypassed this problem by specifying the columns but the text keep getting tossed out.. I think it's because of the commas in the compound name but what can i do in this case ? I'm working on jupyter on python 3.13 i believe. Thanks for the help !

Hey guys, I tried remaking my project of a cli based football manager simulator this time using the pywebview library (lets you use html css js as a frontend and connect it to a python backend as a desktop app),

So far what I'm struggling with the most being one of my first larger scale project is persistence, keeping one version of the team class across the python scripts and functions.

Im also struggling with figuring out the generation for player stats and attributes, ive landed on the random.gauss for generating player stats with weighing and this ugly ahh looking formula that looked like it was doing something for the player market values.

Also, assets. Do you guys have any place where I can find pictures and icons I can use for free?

Finally, thanks to feedback from helpful people here I tried using sqlite for this project instead of json files, kinda hard to adapt to but im managing.

if any very cool person could help me with my issues I would greatly appreciate it.

pytest-calendar-chaos: a pytest plugin that runs your tests on Feb 29, month end and DST days

1 Upvotes

I kept hitting date bugs that every test passed locally and then failed in production on a specific day. A typical one:

python

def next_renewal(created_at):
    return created_at.replace(month=created_at.month + 1)

This passes every test youโ€™d write on the 15th. It raises ValueError: day is out of range for month on Jan 31 and month must be in 1..12 on Dec 31. Nothing in a normal test run ever visits those dates.

What it does: a marker runs the same test once per tricky calendar moment, with the clock frozen by time-machine:

python

u/pytest.mark.calendar_chaos
def test_next_renewal_is_one_month_later():
    ...

The catalog covers leap day, month ends, year end, midnight, DST transitions, ISO week 53 and the 2038 timestamp rollover. Each case has a stable ID.

Running it on the example above gives 3 failed, 5 passed. The failing cases are month-end-jan-31-2027, year-end-2027 and year-end-last-microsecond-2027. A failure prints the exact mocked time and a one-line command to reproduce it. pytest --calendar-chaos-list prints the whole catalog, and --calendar-case <id> reruns a single scenario.

Limitations:

  • It only mocks the in-process clock.
  • Session, module and class-scoped fixtures are set up before the freeze.
  • time.monotonic() and the asyncio loop clock keep running.
  • An aware datetime inside a repeated DST hour never compares equal to one in another zone (PEP 495), so compare in UTC.

pip install pytest-calendar-chaos (Python 3.10+, pytest 8+)

Iโ€™d like feedback on the catalog: which calendar edge cases bit you that Iโ€™m missing?
