Week 4
This week while everyone was doing the remainder of week 3 exercises, I moved onto week 4 exercises — Input/Output. I explored the json and requests module.
The tricky bits were trying to read a whole bunch of json just on the terminal screen. The website that Ben suggested wouldn’t work, so I was on my own.
Also, why work on a weather API when there are so much more cooler APIs! I would have loved to use Quizlet — it let me survive Year 12.
Had an issue where the second test wouldn’t pass… turns out it just wanted the dictionary returned as a string and not the actual message. Next time: Totally don’t cheat and read Ben’s tests.py file and see what output he’s expecting :).
Helped out other classmates with their week 3 questions afterwards. Helping others always helps yourself — That’s why Stackoverflow still exists after years and is still so prominent.
