Any niche sites that aren't for practicing alphabetic characters?

For instance, a site that targets symbols, numbers, numpad, and maybe even shortcuts; Basically anything other than focusing on alphabetic characters.

I use keybr.com for alphabetic stuff with an avg. of 57 wpm and going to consistently practice on there and typeracer sometimes until I hit at least 100 wpm, but I'm still super shit at non-alphabetic stuff and want to improve there as well.

Cannot enter alphabetic characters for Device Change Code

Recently I had to reset my device and couldn't recover my data. I contacted GH and they got back to me with a device change code.

The issue is, I cannot enter any alphabetic characters, I can only enter numbers like a number pad. I'm on Android, has anyone seen this issue?

Social media posts with "custom font" text are not decipherable by screen readers. Introducing Readable, which converts custom font characters to alphabetic characters to make them readable.

Had fun this weekend on the project Readable, which makes the increasingly popular "custom font" characters in social media posts readable by screen readers.

The extension is live here- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/readable/

And if anyone's interested in looking or has ideas for expansion, the source code is on GitHub here- https://github.com/david-shortman/readable

Testing for alphabetic characters only

I'm stumped. I'm trying to check that characters entered into a textbox are letters or control keys. No spaces, not numbers, no special characters. I'm trying to avoid regex because...regex. Everything I've Googled suggests this code should work

  Function tbMailboxName_KeyDown {
    if ([System.Char]::IsLetter($_.KeyChar) -or [System.Char]::IsControl($_.KeyChar)) {
     $_.Handled = $false

} Else {

     $_.Handled = $true
}

}

And yet it lets me enter anything in the textbox! Numbers, special characters, doesn't matter. I just want the textbox to accept upper and lower case letters from a-z!

Is it possible to define "q!" as an ex-command (i.e. non-alphabetic characters in the second position)

I tried adding the following to my dotfile, but unfortunately it does not work as intended:

(evil-ex-define-cmd "q" 'kill-this-buffer)
(evil-ex-define-cmd "q!" 'spacemacs/prompt-kill-emacs)

The program seems to ignore the exclamation mark in the second line and executes the command in the first line instead. This also happens with other symbols and numbers (for example #, @, 1, 9), but only if the non-alphabetic is in the second position (i.e. ":qi9" would work). What is the reason for this and is there a way to get around it?

(Obviously I can just use SPC-q-q instead, but I am trying to understand why this is happening.)

**Pset2 Vigenere Wrapping keyword with modulo** How to skip non alphabetic characters?

Hi all. I'm getting stuck in Vigenere for days, please help. I don't know how to skip non alphabetic characters such as space or number, then get a counter without them and use modulo. Thanks in advance. My code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include<string.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{

            return 1;
       }
        string key = argv[1];
        int lenk = strlen(key);
        int k = 0;
        for (k = 0; k < lenk; k++)
        {
               if ((isalpha(key[k]))==0)
               {
                      printf("Error\n"); 
                      return 1;
               }
        }

printf("Please insert plaintext\n");
string p = GetString();
printf("lenk = %d\n", lenk);
int lenp = strlen(p);
int i = 0;

 for (i = 0; i <= lenp; i++)
 {
    if ((isalpha(p[i]))==0)
        printf("%c",p[i]);
    else
        {
          printf("p[i] = %c key[k] = %c  s = %d \n", p[i], key[i%lenk], i%lenk);

[Pseudocode] How do I check if a string contains two alphabetic, and four numeric character? (Ex: AA1234)

I'm working on an assignment for my Programming Design & Logic class, and I have a problem that is asking to check a record, and validate a string before continuing on to the rest of the problem. I need to make sure that the parts number (the string I'm validating) actually contains two alphabetic, and four numeric characters. I've decided to try and break it down into the two alphabetic and four numeric characters, but am unsure as to how to work the check for or equal to into an IF statement. Hell, I'm even unsure as to if I'm on the right track.

I hope this isn't too confusingly written. I'm a bit flustered from using my google-fu to no avail. All of the responses I've seen were for specific languages, and using built in functions.

Please ask for any clarification on the problem if needed.

EDIT:

Thank you for the responses so far! Currently we have not gone over anything to check if a character is numeric or alphabetic. We've mostly have been covering IF THEN ELSE, CASE OF, DOWHILE, REPEAT UNTIL, other basic structuring systems, and the very basics of programming. I think I've found an answer, but if anyone else has any suggestions or tips I would love to hear them.
