Re: "Make code better, again"
How is it 'better' to leave the computer running when it's not needed? Assuming this is the desired behaviour, why is it 'better' to reboot the computer each time instead of using a loop? And assuming that is the desired behaviour, why is it 'better' to have the call to os.reboot() repeated inside the if blocks instead of once after the if?
- Loop uses more memory. Also, there's no difference, do you really care that much? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.20.22.206 (talk • contribs)
- I reverted changes from two users. This guide is supposed to be a reasonably low level tutorial. Simply slapping code on a page is not a tutorial, hence the previous version with screen shots is more noob friendly. Secondly, the latter version used variables that don't need to be variables. 121.45.75.253 14:07, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I think this can be more "Noob" friendly
