The full code for this projects is in my GitHub Page. [ Wordlister ]
It even includes an executable for you to use without needed to compile the code if you like.

I have to give props and thanks to my friend Syntax, I was telling him about my PDF Text Extractor, and he said “That is very cool, you know, it would awesome if you would be able to take a PDF and turn its content into a wordlist, that would be very helpful”. I heard that and my brain immediately said “Challenge Accepted”.

What Do I…

Hello World.

The full code for this projects is in my GitHub Page. [ PTE ] It even includes an executable for you to use without needed to compile the code if you like. Earlier this year I wrote a blog post about a passion project I was working on, the Nubian Dictionary. In that post I mentioned writing a tool I called PTE, the PDF Text Extractor, this is the post about PTE. The information that I needed for the dictionary was compiled in a large PDF file, it was over 100 pages long. The file was a scanned…

Hello Friends,
As you may know by now, I am part of a 2 man team, who have decided to embark on the journey of learning Python, this started back in 2018. To do so we decided to work on a project, from scratch using Python as our weapon of choice. We started it in the summer of 2018, and got things running to a certain level, and then life happened to both of us and we hadn’t touched it, until June of 2020, where we had to basically code everything from scratch. …

If you work with Linux, then you have most likely come across the “chmod” command, this is the command that allows you to set permissions to files, allowing access or denying it to the users who have access to those files. If you run the “ls –l” command, it would list the files and you would see the permissions, usually something like “-rw-r-xr-x”. …

Hello World.
I wanted to tackle the logic of how to create a Rock Paper Scissors (RPS) game using the knowledge that I know so far. I think this particular project has proved to me, once a gain, why I love programming. I wrote out the logic in two different ways to make it work, and then I found a videos online of Kylie Ying who also created an RPS game, but in a very different way, here is one of her videos on it.
Needless to say, you may actually have a more efficient way of making this happen.

Hello Friends,
Today’s post is not about hacking in the “breaking” sense of the word, its more about “making”. As you know from my PyNoob blog, I am up-skilling my python programming skills. One way that has been helping me is working on this passion project. The Nubian Dictionary. It is available in our [bini-tek]\ \ GitHub page.

// What is the Nubian Dictionary Project? In simple terms, it is a digitized version of a physical Nubian Dictionary. My coding partner 50DD & I came across a PDF of a scanned book, which was created by the lexicographer Mr. Youssef…

Hello World.

A few years ago when I was job hunting, I kept coming a cross a little problem. Some job posts would post either only the hourly wage or the annual salary, but never both. In order for me to decide if I wanted to apply to the job I needed to know both, because I needed my wages to cover certain expenses. So I did some digging and found the 2 formula’s that would give me the conversions, but I still had to do it manually, so I decided I needed a quicker way to do it. …

Hello World.
One important thing when creating these little programs, especially if you will have someone interact with them (which is most of the mini-programs that I do), is to make sure to validate the input coming in. Not everyone is malicious, but mistakes can happen, I’ve done it sometimes where I would type in a letter instead of a number and vise versa.
So lets create simple script as an exercise in learning this.

What Do I Need The Program To Do.

1. To print a welcome message.
2. To ask the user for a string (word) input.
3. To validate that…
