I have been programming for a while now and wow, it is so frustrating.
As all programmers know, when writing a program that's more than a couple lines or that uses a library or module you haven't used before it won't work. My friend who also does a lot of programming thinks the term "Cursing like a sailor" is nothing compared to "Cursing like a programmer."
These errors can be so frustrating sometimes, because it can be really hard to figure out what the problem is. I have worked on projects where it will work for a little bit and then break or crash, and I try so many different things that may change something and make it work. Eventually I will get most of the problems solved but it gets really stressful and annoying because I have NO IDEA of why it's not working.
If you follow me, which you totally should, then you noticed that yesterday I made 5 blog posts testing out a program I have been working on that is a polling bot. This bot should make a blog post and then scan the comments for votes and then tallies them and so far it hasn't been working. I have made some progress and it should be working shortly, but I still need help.
If you know how to program with the python steem module please give me some advice on this program I am working on.
This bot should be able to edit the post with the poll on it and update with the number of votes in each category. If you know how to edit your own posts with the python steem module, let me know in the comments, please.
I tried to make the bot reply to comments where people vote, and say "You voted for ..." I got it to do something close to this but it just commented on the blog post and not on the comment. So I am a little confused and if you know, please let me know.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for everyone's help. I just reached 150 followers, so thanks for that. If you liked my post please follow me, upvote, and resteem this.
