also let users know that you're tracking their ip. it might get you into trouble for privacy issue, so its better to let them know ahead of time

it tell the location of where the code is running, not particularly yours. in this case becase the code running in Sololearn server, so it shown the location of Sololearn server which in Virginia

oooh because the code running in Sololearn server, which is at time located in Virginia. its normal thing that happen the the running the code in third party service like here in sololearn. the result should be right if you're running the code on your own device

you need to run the code yourself in computer or terminal. there's a app called pydroid if you want to run it in android phone.

it depend by preference, i usually use github only for project with bigger codebase. for small code bits or a prototyping i still save it here. imho the important part for saving the code here, is not the result, but the code itself how its structured and the logic behind it, and we can easily test run the code without much hassle. even if the result are wrong because the the code running in different location, we still can implement the code knowing the result wont be wrong in right environment. so, no. its not completely useless

@Karan your code is inaccurate! I don't trust the 'Accuracy: 1000' message!

Rei isnt it useless to put a code where it will give an error? It should be in GitHub
