[serious] Python (Programming Language) users

Any folks who know python besides @PixeL who can assist with some intros for me? I have some javascript fundamentals down so its not a difficult transition. Currently trying to learn some BeautifulSoup, how to launch steam games, timers, and maybe some notifications. But I am trying to learn, not have code written for me.

Serious replies only

 

Look up ''python programming to send adware into a computer.'' thank me later.

 

Threads kinda dead but lemme revive it with 4 cool things Pixel helped me make.

First:
Grabs a random image from https://earthview.withgoogle.com (roughly 1500 available images, all SFW) and sets your clipboard to a discord and shoutbox friendly img tag.

Code:

import requests
import random
import win32clipboard as clip

while True:
    rand = random.randint(1000,7023)
    url = 'https://www.gstatic.com/prettyearth/assets/full/' + str(rand) + '.jpg'

    r = requests.get(url)
    if r.status_code != 200:
        continue
    else:
        clip.OpenClipboard()
        clip.EmptyClipboard()
        clip.SetClipboardText('[img]'+url+' [/img]')
        clip.CloseClipboard()
        break

Next:
Auto check if a specific player is connected to the servers (In my case its my alt) and if not, notify the user by leaving the window open (runs hourly)

Code:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

result = requests.get("https://www.seriousgmod.com/servers/")

c = result.content
b = result.text

username = "SGM DarkRP"

if username in b:
    print('found')
else:
    input('Not found, please confirm')

soup = BeautifulSoup(c, 'html.parser')

samples = soup.find_all("tbody")

Next:
Automatically finds the emptiest server and joins it for AFKing for points
TURNS OUT THIS KINDA SUX CAUSE PTS WAS ADDED, NEW VERSION IS BEING TESTED

Code:

import requests
import webbrowser

result = requests.get("https://www.seriousgmod.com/servers/json")
r = result.json()

sort = sorted(r['servers'], key=lambda k: k['num_players'])

if sort[0]['ip'] == 'east.seriousdr.com':
    ip = sort[1]['ip']
else:
    ip = sort[0]['ip']

print(ip)

url = "steam://connect/" + ip

webbrowser.open(url,0)

And last:
Download the 1523 images from earthview to a folder for desktop usage

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os
import requests

BASE_URL = 'https://www.gstatic.com/prettyearth/assets/full/'
SAVE_DIR = 'earthview_pictures'

           
def downloadfullimage(url, file_name):
    response = requests.get(url)
    if response.status_code != 200:
        print(f'Status Code: {response.status_code}')
        return
    with open(f'{SAVE_DIR}/{file_name}', 'wb') as file:
        file.write(response.content)
        print(f'Wrote file {file_name}')

       

def get_images():
    if not os.path.exists(SAVE_DIR):
        print('Creating save folder...')
        os.makedirs(SAVE_DIR)

    for x in range(1003, 7023):
        print(f'Fetching image {x}...')
        url = f'{BASE_URL}{x}.jpg'
        downloadfullimage(url, f'{x}.jpg')

get_images()
