Madlibs (1/25) Getting started with python
The first project done.
So the first project in my journey of 25 dirty hands project journey is done.
For me, it was not a too complicated project itself, but mostly it was a good chance to get Python up and running on my Ubuntu and start playing a little around with Python.
The project that can be found in my repo is built up as a kind of "chat robot" Well of course not one of the more semi-intelligent you meet on your favorite shopping page, but more like a small game. where it asks for some input, then plays around with your name/payment etc. and sends some small string back to the user.
Goal
My goal for this project was mostly to get Python up and running on my computer, get some code in my hands, stumble upon the first few bug here and there, and get used to debugging/googling Python bugs.
I will say its job is done, since I have a good feeling, about how Python acts when getting input in the console. After I had decided to "finish" the project, I stumbled on a youtube shot, that mention another way to play with string concatenation using "fString". I have not dug further down into it, but from what I saw in the short video it looks more readable, and easier to maintain than the: "string" + Variable + "String" I have come up with in this madlibs project. something I will put into a future project, to get the chance to learn.
Conclusion.
Well my goal was to get my hands dirty and I did, got some cool bugs to handle, and get used to writing Python. I have a good feeling about the way I have decided to tackle this 25-project journey by say done when I feel I have learned what I wanted and not forcing myself to finish up a small project.
