Couldn't really focus today. Feeling fine. But maybe a bit PTSD after getting the first jab.
I have been wondering about that. Even if we don't believe all the negative hype around it - it must affect us on a level

After 15 months of fearing an invisible threat of death. Yeah, I'd say.

Got to get the basics right.
Know that. Just tedious.
Using Jupyter Notebook at the moment. Think later in the course, there will be a switch to Sublime text.


Java was my first choice, but work forced me to python, panel programming & writing add-ons for our Autodesk package. All work on python

Didn’t like Java when I did a few day course with Linda.com. Python looked interesting when I had a quick look. Python would be my preference.

Been using Sublime Text for a long time, though never really bothered with the power features.

Note that Java 7/8 vs what it is now is nearly a completely different language, they embraced streams, really nice new switch statements, etc.

@Cereal_Killer pycharm or visual studio code.

On basics first, pardon my ignorance, but what's the difference?
How helpful the IDE is, PyCharm is Jetbrain's product, there's an education version you can use while learning, VS Code is free/open source but you'll have to install a lot of add-ons. The indexing is better in either one of them than sublime imho, and the extensibility of VS Code makes it a great IDE to work with.
