I think the last line is supposed to say (3, 3) and (5, 1)? Not sure. 
is it underlining only because my phone thinks its phone numbers or did you intentionally do that @Through the Living Wrath

Ok i''ll put my thoughts:

 

I think the last line are pythonic indices, [3], [3:], [5], [1]

Because if u don't know, in python u can do 'abcdef'[3:] -> 'def'

EDIT: also, depending on the length of whatever you inputted, (assuming all the above four indices are on the same input?) then if it's length 8, you get another length 8 back. lengt 7... i guess another len 7 lol. oh wait. Anwyay but maybe it's on four separte chunks.. hmm

 

Also idk why all the digits in this challenge are 0-7. My thought was bit indices, but then why waste so much space with the five-digit numbers, which take up two bytes? So if they are bit indices, it probably isn't for the preceding number. Also, why 17 numbers? Why not 16? Does the number not matter then? Is everything base8 like Verde said? Then why the odd reaction from Wrath? Was that a mock hurt from accusation or genuine confusion? HAHFUEHFIUHAUHEFH

 

It's your phone

@Through the Living Hopper I see ya lurkin'.. u a coder or anything? I didn't know if you were so I didn't ping ya in the first post, but are ya interested?

I code a little bit. I'm trying to figure it out without showing that I know nothing about this, though. I'll join the discussion for the next one.

I dont know enough about coding i think

The internet says the final section has something to do with python

Answer in SPOILER

  Hide contents

sudo rm -fr —no-preserve-root /

that was it

Last line —> rearrange the spacing from blocks of 5 and 1 to blocks of 3 and 3.

Then, convert from octal to ASCII

thats it

 

Spoiler

Yeah so my instincts about octal and ascii were right, but I don’t have any idea what sudo rm -fr is

Ive got a debatably easy one. 

Step One: aG, aA, bA. xY

Step Two: b.c.v. 14 words esv

Look at the capitals, and xY is in fact not exactly the same thing as the other three. Also look at how high they get in the alphabet 

i will mention the number sixty four in hopes you will not see this edit.

is the period after bA intentional? Or is it supposed to be a comma?

G is 6 letters after A

A is 0 letters after A

A is 25 letters after B

Y is 25 letters after X

It is differentiating the code itself from the solution or key

imma count all that as hint one. Two left.

You’re not an idiot. Again, look at the capitals. Look at the key. The key is showing you something about the code.

Huh? No. 
i am a very stupid person. I have not included anything in the first half of the puzzle that a kid who has taken only up to algebra 1 couldn’t solve.

Not that you need algebra

don't self-deprecate!

 

also will first half make sense, like will i know when i got it right before i do the second half?

I guess ill have to tell you lmao

not well thought out

uhm lets see. 8️⃣
you are trying to get a string of numbers that fits inside bo.c.v.

Bo.c.v. will show you where to get the answer if you figure out what it means and what numbers fit where

Alright so there are a lot of A's

Uhh.....

This isn't hexadecimal

It could be septadecimal, but I doubt it

Hmm...

What is the '14 words esv' part meant to mean?

The solution is fourteen words in ESV
