A very Happy December by the way! Time's been racing faster than ever, and here we are, diving headfirst into the end of another year. Today was one of those full-throttle study days, where I dove into the world of Python with fervor. Here's a snapshot of what I managed to accomplish:
LIVE course lecture (4 hours)
The first part of the day, I spent a solid 4 hours absorbing a lecture packed with invaluable insights. Covered Topics: Non-primitive data types like lists, tuples, sets (with their union, intersection, and differences), dictionaries, and loops took the spotlight. Coding Challenges: Engaged in a few Python coding challenges set by the tutor, adding a practical twist to the theoretical learning.
YouTube self-study (4.5 hours)
Just a random search this morning on Python led me to a YouTube video from freeCodeCamp.org. Determined to soak it all in, I committed to watching it in one go. As I scribble this journal, the clock strikes 10:50 PM, and I've still got 2.3 hours left. Pushing it till midnight seems plausible, or perhaps I'll leave the remainder for tomorrow.
Planning Ahead: Tomorrow’s earmarked for the next assignment - a hefty 6-hour commitment aimed at getting it polished before Sunday rolls around.
Key Takeaways: Amidst the whirlwind of information, a couple of key lessons stood out:
Commitment Matters: Staying dedicated to the learning process - absorbing, practicing, and being present - is key.
It’s Okay to Feel Overwhelmed: The complexity of study material can sometimes leave one feeling dazed, but the crucial bit is to persist through it without giving up.
Exploring Teaching Styles: Exploring tutorials from different coders might just unlock the perfect teaching style that resonates with individual learning preferences.
So, that was my day - a rollercoaster of Python immersion and commitment to the learning journey. As the clock ticks away, I’m reminded that in the world of coding, every hour invested is a step closer to mastering the craft.
Until next time, keep coding and exploring those intriguing tutorials - you might just stumble upon a teaching style that clicks like magic! Cheers to the learning adventures ahead!
