This week we continued to work on python. I'm starting to really like python. Though it is really hard to remember all the different commands for things, especially anything to do with windows or the math functions. At these points I find myself having to look this stuff up again, and the prelabs have been very helpful for this. Though despite however much I look at a prelab, I still seem to be doing poorly on the quizzes. I am generally not very good at any kind of conceptual python question. I can look at code and solve it (most of the time), but anytime words are involved I lose comprehension. This might just be my personality. I am a very math oriented person, especially the kind of math where you plug something into a formula and look at what comes out the other side. Words are not my friend.

This week we worked on python. So far I like python. It's a little confusing at times, but it mostly makes sense to me. I generally enjoy things that work logically and step by step. I have trouble remembering the concepts though, and I haven't been doing so well on the quizzes. But I'm going to try to study harder and do better on the next quiz. I'll need to work on it outside of class more if I'm going to bring my grades up. Time to stop being lazy and try harder.
