A Hundred Days of Code, Day 001 - Beginning With Classes

Notes I’ve taken from the videos I watched, today. This is my attempt at Feynman-ing (below), what I learnt so far. Classes and Object Oriented Programming started to come together for me, when I saw Kushal using them. To use my father’s carpentry analogy, I could in theory just hammer nails into wood to join them. But to make a really strong joint, I could use other methods. I could screw pieces of wood together, which is markedly better than just nailing them. I could chisel wood and create a dovetail or mortise joint. ...

A Hundred Days of Code, Day 000 - Begin Again

How do I begin this post? By simply beginning :) Again! This probably is the fourth (or is it fifth) time, I’ll be attempting to learn how to program. And probably the same number of attempts at #100DaysOfCode. I did 47 days last time and 37 days before that. I will try my utmost to go the distance this time. Because even if I didn’t complete a full run, I still learnt tonnes from all my previous efforts. I do have a beginner’s grasp of Python. And I hope get even better, much better, this time. ...

Emacs, Final Day!

Unlike #100DaysOfCode, I am not quite giving up on Emacs. Rather that it has turned out to be a habit that has fit in, quite well, and I don’t need this accountability any more. I use it for most of my prose (not code, yet.) This post, is in fact, written in Emacs :) I have not gained any modicum of knowledge by any means. But I have enough muscle memory and immersion, to make sure I will continue using Emacs for most writing I do. ...
