Quickstart¶

This page gives you a brief introduction to the library. If you don’t have the library installed yet, check Installation first.

Minimal example¶

Let’s make our first use of the library.

First, create a file called main.py and add following code (explanation below):

from uncle_nelson import calculate_mix, DrugType, IngredientType

def main():
    mix = calculate_mix(DrugType.meth, [IngredientType.cuke, IngredientType.banana])
    effects = ", ".join(e.value for e in mix.effects)

    print(f"Your custom mix has following effects: {effects}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

It’s a really basic example, but let’s have a look what happens here:

First lines imports calculate_mix(), DrugType, and IngredientType to calculate a mix.
Inside the main function we call calculate_mix() with the DrugType and a list of IngredientType (Note: The order matters, because each ingredient is applied individually).
After that we get all the information of the mix, including the effects, price and cost.
Finally we execute our main function.

Now let’s run the script.

On Linux/MacOS, use

python3 main.py

On Windows, use

py -3 main.py

This should output something like this

Your custom mix has following effects: Thought-Provoking, Gingeritis
