Day 7 of 100: 100 days of code

 First day of work after time off and it was brutal. Did not get a chance to push commits to git but completed day 8 of the python bootcamp course. Enjoyed working on the Caesar Cipher assignment.

Day 6 of 100: The journey continues

I kept the git commits going with more bug fixes

Worked through the Hangman examples of Day 7 of The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022 course on Udemy. The range is an all powerful and mighty function that I often underuse.

Day 5 of 100 : 100 Days of Code

Reached Day 7 of The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022 course on Udemy and completed the coding exercises. It was an interesting refresher of lists and conditional flow logic. Set a goal to reach Day 15 section of the course in the next 3 days. I guess, the fun part will start then. 

Took a couple of days off from code commits on git, so used this opportunity to tackle a bug in the backlog that the dev team is unable to address for a couple of weeks.

Day 4 of 100 : The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022

Continued my progress in The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022 course on Udemy by completing the day 4 objectives. 

Been coding in Python for a couple of years and never realized that I could use negative indexes in lists. So going to use them now.

Day 1 of 100 - Completed Day 1 objectives

Completed the Day 1 objective in the 100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022 course on Udemy. 

Things learnt:
- Exposure to Replit
- Exposure to Coding Rooms

The lessons were quiet basic, cant wait for day 14. 

Starting the 100 Days of Code challenge

It is time to code !!!

I decided to sign up for the 100 days of code challenge. I have not been able to be hands-on in development since the beginning of the year, and the code I write is usually bits and pieces, here and there, to cover an epic or take care of infrastructure. I took my Wife's advice and decided to spend an hour a day doing something I love. 

To ensure that I do not sneak into writing code for work, I registered for the 100 Days of Code: The complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022. I need a disciplined approach to stick to the plan, or I will work on work-related stuff in my hour. 

Wish me luck!!!
