Awesome inc. Summer 2023 Bootcamp
What are some similarities and differences you can see with JS and Python?
The logic behind the languages seem to be a little similar. You can loop through items, hold information in a variable, and perform operations on different information.
If you had started with Python instead of JS, how do you think the Bootcamp would be different? Would you have benefited?
I think the bootcamp would have been more difficult if I had started with Python. I don't think Python is as difficult a language to learn as vanilla Javascript due to all of the special characters used in Javascript (such as or ;). I don't believe it would have been a benefit as after getting used to writing Python it would have been harder to not make errors constantly with Javascript syntax.
Think of a project or tech based tool that you use often and think about what the database structure might look like for it. Do you feel like you have a better understanding of how it works now and could you see yourself enjoying building something like that in the future?
I think of the software I used at my old position before coming to this bootcamp, and I have a much better understanding of how that system worked now. I had a lot of interest in that sytem at the time, and I can see myself really enjoying building something similar with improvements.
