@U12-Forward I have a self-deleted Python question (stackoverflow.com/questions/…), I used an old answer to try to solve my problem but the old answer had flaws. None of the existing Q/A I can find in other similar questions marked as duplicate actually solve my issue. I'm not quite sure how to re-write my question that will get my preferred solution. Can you help me navigate the re-write and undelete so it will get an answer?

@JamesRisner Could you give me a link?

sec

stackoverflow.com/questions/74987453

I deleted it so it didn't catch a lot more downvotes

but I was trying to order the list so all the NaN, Inf, etc are at the end of the list. All the other questions have it at the beginning or randomly somewhere in the list.

Issue was I didn't realize one of the questions were for python 2.x and the other required numpy (np)

Ah...

It's a bit hard to fix that...

I need to rewrite it so it can be answered, because I can't find an example that does what I'm trying in all the "dup" targets.

... and boy are they a lot.

but ultimately, I'm just trying to find 3 legitimate questions (non-duplicates) that I can hope to get Cubed. I just need 3 more on SO

@JamesRisner You should have a desired output

Also, you should get rid of the second example, that works.

@JamesRisner I can answer it once you add a desired output

it got an answer, but they retracted when it got a close vote I think.

@JamesRisner I think that's a good answer

edit you desired output in, and accept the answer, I can vote it up if you want

Or add another good answer

Ok, let me type some. 5 mins

Great

ok check now

do you think that is sufficient to help it stand on it's own and not have a chance they will dup it?

I don't think it would be a dupe

Any improvements you can see?

(I should make)

You should keep what you tried

The code attempt

that's python 2.7 I think

or the second one?

@JamesRisner Yes

For your attempt :)

Pranav Hosangadi or someone put in a close typo due to that.

I need to craft something that doesn't error from a syntax error I guess.

That's a typeerror, should be fine

what's <list_reverseiterator object at 0x102ba3550> mean?

@JamesRisner Ye

print(list(reversed(o)))

well, now it's working as I need. It wasn't earlier today.

Yes!

sigh

You want it to keep the nans and infs at the end of the list right?

oh right, the reverse is broken.

I'm putting this code into the question now.

I will answer it

edited and undeleted

@JamesRisner Check my answer.

good

thanks

Does it work?

[52, 13, 8.2, 4, 3.1, nan, inf]

yes well for reverse.

how to get the forward? use my code for forward?

that's suitable

I need to write two more, and hope someone doesn't come along and complete the close on this one.

so I'll be up late tonight. I'll check it out tomorrow and if it's still open accept thanks. I know way too little python so I'll stick to more sql questions ;-)

@JamesRisner Check my answer edit

nice

thanks for the Q edit also.

it's nicer now. more code formatting ;-)

off to SQL land to write some more workable questions.

thanks by the way, that was good advice on improving the question.

@JamesRisner No problem!
