Python Programming

12/29/2022

 
I’m working on my Python programming. I’ve used Python for my job a few times, but wanted to get some more practice with it. There are a few things I’ve been doing to try to improve.
  1. Studying the language to try to understand the style and best practices. I’ve been reading books, lots of websites and studying the Python courses on Pluralsight.
  2. Practice by writing code. I guess I’m not very creative because I’ve been implementing these programming problems from an old book I have. The book is called Programming Challenges: The Programming Contest Manual. It has a lot of computer science type programming problems but no answers so I can't cheat
I will be writing up each problem and all the code is on my Github. I'm also writing up each problem on the Project and Code page of my website. I'm probably not the most Pythonic Python coder, but the point of it is to learn and hopefully improve over time.

Right now I'm using VS Code on Linux which seems to be working great. There's not exactly a REPL available, but I'm still liking it.
