My Third Python Course


             The third Udacity course my dad had me take gave me lots of new Python knowledge. It blended my two last courses  and filled me with new knowledge, and helping me to understand Python better.
             I think this course was really engaging and I learned lots. I liked how some of it was review and some of it was new, because it made me think in different ways.
             I learned how to use Booleans, which are a kind of data that compare using true or false. There's <  for less than, > for greater than, <= for less than or equal to, >= for greater than or equal to, == for equal to, and != for not equal to. This can be used in lots of ways, like for checking whether an answer is right or wrong, or if an object is one or the other.
             I learned about break, too. The break keyword will stop a loop once the program detects that a certain condition has been met. 
             I also learned about variable scope, which refers to specific parts of a program a certain variable can be used in. For example, a variable created inside a function can only be used inside that function. But if a variable is created outside a function, it can be used anywhere in the program, which I thought was interesting.
             What I also learned was lists, types of data that can be defined as variables that have inside them a list of strings. It's defined with square brackets, and always has in it data separated by commas. They have a specific order, and can be looked up by their number in their sequence.
             One thing my second course taught that this course didn't was how to connect python with the outside world, like opening up web browsers, but this course was nevertheless extremely fun and useful, and it makes me very excited for whatever I will learn next.
