A Tragic Love story as told in Python script
(My Python skill are quite rudimentary, so, I had some assistance from Claude)
# The Tragedy of Alice and Bob
# A love written in code, doomed by logic
from datetime import datetime
class Heart:
def init(self, name, target=None):
self.name = name
self.target = target
self.feeling = None
self.moment = datetime.now()
def query(self, other):
self.feeling = "longing"
return f"{self.name}: SELECT * FROM soul WHERE name = '{other.name}' AND fate IS NOT NULL;"
def join(self, other):
if self.target == other.name and other.target == self.name:
self.feeling = other.feeling = "bound"
return f"-- INNER JOIN succeeded; hearts linked in perfect schema."
self.feeling = "rejected"
return f"-- LEFT JOIN failed; {self.name} remains unmatched, NULL in affection."
def commit(self):
if self.feeling == "bound":
return f"{self.name}: COMMIT; -- believing forever means atomic truth."
else:
return f"{self.name}: ROLLBACK; -- love violated integrity constraints."
def fall(self):
return f"{self.name}: DELETE FROM existence WHERE hope = TRUE;"
# Scene I: Declaration
