19th Lesson... Helping is good

Today I helped a bunch of people who didn't finish their madlibs. I read over chapter 3 and it seems very confusing. Anyhoo, i'm ready for it...

18th Lesson... 1st Program!

Woot! Today I finally accomplished something on Python. It's not much and is probably the most basic of all basics in Python, but I still feel proud! Now to go home and meditate on all I have just learned. My madlib is ... mediocre?

17th Lesson... Time to study up!

Ok... I definately need to look over the tutorials at home now... before I fall behind too much. We're dealing with a considerable amount of programming definitions, and the lessons are starting to make more sense now. Today I finished some of exercise 2, and will probably look over them again at home tonight. I'm glad we got firefox so that we can now view the newer version of HTLCS... so much more friendlier than the old one! But I still think Safari is the browser!!!

16th Lesson... Functions

Today we dealt with basic python functions. It was very vague to me and I could not apply the syntax code very well... so I got stuck on the bruce bruce bit. I have no clue what paramteres are for and why even bother writing them in between the brackets next to the function name... Nor do I have any clue to why they chose to use Bruce. It's getting a lot harder!

15th Lesson... THE END OF GUIDO

Yay! Today we finished with GVR... and moved on to Python. Python seems complicated though... Didn't expect any less. We covered the basic commands involving the use of variables and strings. It's kind of hazy for me to see the point of Python... In GVR our programs were designated to Guido's actions, but in Python it seems as though we have no definite thing to program.

14th Lesson... Guido masterz the maze!

This lesson I learned how to use the define in its own define command... a paradox in its self. CONFUSING
