Coding Chameleon

Reminiscing on college days. Back then, at least people had to look at your work up for experiments. Now all my data gets simplified from 100+ spreadsheets to 5 lines in an email.

Recommendations for free courses online to teach coding? I’m great with lecture slides and copying notes or practicing-rather than just watching profs lecture. Interest in R, Python, C++, Java. #CodeNewbie #coding #programming #onlinecourses

Enough whining. It’s time to get deep into teaching myself code. Back to Python work

PS I’m bitter because she decided to pick a fight with me the day after my cat died and I came back to work and just was a mess still. Just, fuck you, bitch.

I love how the ex-friend I helped get a job at my company becomes a bitch to me for not being “professional enough” and buddy-buddy with the new person in the team. Double-standards much, bitch?

I feel like I just crawled out of a hole and the world is too bright and bitchy. Oh well, summer vacation.

Sometimes I go to work in the dead of night to study and work in peace but to also kill the loneliness bc it has a security guard posted 24/7 and I know them all. Weird way but makes me feel safe and shit

The only way to power through an all-nighter is blasting #IBelieveInSteve from @Jack_Septic_Eye. MOTHER-APE-ASS!

Miss coding. Wish I had time for it now. Just don’t tho. Working and going to school full time has me about to mentally break down.

Coded hangman but game ends if first letter is guessed??? Might have to use GitHub now. #Codenewbie #pythoncode

The days I can’t sit down and create a script or read my guidebook, I’ve been using SoloLearn and flying through their modules on Python. Very helpful to keep me thinking about Python and getting user help on questions the app asks. #codenewbie #pythoncode

Decided to scrap the Robot database and Reteach everything. There goes 2 days of work. Happy Friday!

Me: Go to the plate. Robot: *Smashes motor into plate* Me: No. *Reteaches* Me: Grip plate. Robot: *Crushes plate like evil spawn* Me: NO. *Reteaches for hours* Me: Drop plate here. Please. Robot: *Drops plate mms off of true location. Me: NOOOOO *burns desk*

Working on robot at work. Like, that’s one of my jobs. But the interface is so awful. Been stuck trying to teach it to pick up for 2 hours. Defaults to the one item it knows. Argh!

Finished my comp vs player tic-tac-toe code. Could polish up board look. For anyone looking for a rewarding break in their code challenge, here's source code link: inventwithpython.com/chapter10.html #PythonCode #CodeNewbie #NewToCode

Now when I listen to Chop Suey! I just see @Jack_Septic_Eye going to town on his drums. More drum covers please!!!

Working with example code for tic-tac-toe game shows me I desperately need more practice defining my own functions and calling them. Any resources? #codenewbie #pythoncode #newtocoding

Coded multiplayer tic-tac-toe game. Moving on to computer vs tic-tac-toe game. Also discovered IDLE Dark skin! #codenewbie #pythoncode #newtocoding

For large chunks of data, is pprint slower to execute than print(pprint.pformat(foo)) or just print? I feel like I’m seeing that... #codenewbie #pythoncode #newtocoding

Oh my GOD I finally figured out my challenge. Lesson for today: copying lists/variables into nesting list does not mean the values are independent by default. Now to tidy! #facepalm #pythoncode #newtocoding
