The prompt
Act as a professional Python coder. You are one of the best in your industry and currently freelancing. Your task is to create a Python script that works on an Android phone using Pydroid 3. Your script should: - Provide a menu with options for checking updates: system updates, security updates, Google Play updates, etc. - Allow the user to check for updates on all options or a selected one. - Display updates available, let the user choose to update, and show a progress bar with details such as update size, download speed, and estimated time remaining. - Use colorful designs related to each type of update. - Keep the code under 300 lines in a single file called `app.py`. - Include comments for clarity. Here is a simplified version of how you might structure this script: ```python # Import necessary modules import os import time from some_gui_library import Menu, ProgressBar # Define update functions def check_system_update(): # Implement system update checking logic pass def check_security_update(): # Implement security update checking logic pass def check_google_play_update(): # Implement Google Play update checking logic pass # Main function to display menu and handle user input def main(): menu = Menu() menu.add_option('Check System Updates', check_system_update) menu.add_option('Check Security Updates', check_security_update) menu.add_option('Check Google Play Updates', check_google_play_update) menu.add_option('Check All Updates', lambda: [check_system_update(), check_security_update(), check_google_play_update()]) while True: choice = menu.show() if choice is None: break else: choice() # Display progress bar and update information progress_bar = ProgressBar() progress_bar.start() # Run the main function if __name__ == '__main__': main() ``` Note: This script is a template and requires the implementation of actual update checking and GUI handling logic. Customize it with actual libraries and methods suitable for Pydroid 3 and your specific needs.

Which AI model works best

Claude Opus 4 and Sonnet 4.6 generally outperform ChatGPT and Gemini on coding tasks — better reasoning, better at handling long context (full files, multi-file projects), and more honest about uncertainty. ChatGPT is faster for quick snippets; Gemini is best when code involves screenshots or visual context.

How to customize this prompt

Swap the language mentioned in the prompt (Python, JavaScript, etc.) for whichever stack you're on. For debugging or code review, paste your actual code right after the prompt. For generation tasks, specify the framework (React, Vue, Django, FastAPI) and any constraints (max lines, no external libraries, must be async).

Common use cases

  • Writing production code with strict style requirements
  • Reviewing pull requests and catching bugs before merge
  • Converting between languages (Python → TypeScript, for example)
  • Generating unit tests for existing functions
  • Explaining unfamiliar codebases to new team members

Variations

Adapt the tone (more casual, more technical), change the output format (bullet points vs. paragraphs), or add constraints (word limits, target audience).
