Hey Anita, Did you really find a "Solution on Exercism"? ;) Do you think Python or your computer is possessed? lol
@mccurcio Yes, my computer is definitely possessed. Mostly because it's the first Mac I've owned and I still barely know how to use it after 3 years. π€ͺπ€ͺ
Do you use exercism? It's a really cool site. You might like it. exercism.io.
OOOOhhh, I thought you misspelled EXERCISE and were thinking EXORCISM! LOL
Never owned a MAC. I get some confused by them when I start "RIGHT" clicking, ARRRGGGH.
Stand Back! Linux only for the past ten years. haha

Motivation/Problem Statement πβ:
Python, python, and more python. And some Data Analysis.
Today's Goal/Solution π₯ :
Learning about Dictionaries.
Result πππ:
Today, I watched one of the lecture videos from the Python Data Structures course. It introduced dictionaries in Python. I then decided to do a problem on exercism.io. I got all the tests to pass and submitted my solution for mentor feedback. I'm a bit nervous about it because I took a more complex approach to it than I could have, and I'm hoping it wasn't too much. I'm still getting a feel for simplicity vs robust solutions.
Observations & Next Steps ππ£:
I feel like I'm making really good progress with Python, both in terms of the course and my general understanding of it. I find that I like it better than when I first started. I also enjoy doing Python more than I did the stuff from The Odin Project. I'm not fully sure why though. Maybe it's because the project is smaller and I understand Python better than HTML/CSS. I think backend engineering may be in my DNA. We shall see when I finally sit down to learn SQL. π
References π:
None
Extra/Fun (Optional) πππ₯³:
I went for a walk and the weather was gorgeous! We actually have Spring in FL this year instead of the hot, humid springs we've been having. I welcome it!
