From St. Theresa of Lisieux C.H.S., Algorithm Alchemists
About
I need competitive coding experience. And friends.
Used to be a java coder, but was peer-pressured to learn python. So I'm now a python coder, I guess.
My Milestones:
Middle of March: Joined Algorithm Alchemist class. (Non profit organization that teaches code for free :D)
March 30, 2024: Solved Hello World. Also my first 3pp question.
Some time soon after: Solved my first 5pp question.
Summer of 2024: Became a self-taught python user.
June 26, 2024: Solved my first 7pp (with ChatGPT)
July 7, 2024: Taught in Algorithm Alchemists.
September 21, 2024: Became a mostly python user.
October 1, 2024: Solved my first 10pp question! (With the help of the editorial)
October 5, 2024: Solved my first 7pp question without ChatGPT.
October 12, 2024: Solved my first 12pp question! (The answer was in the editorial)
October 13, 2024: Finally decided to record milestones. (Previous dates are probably inaccurate.)
October 20, 2024: Solved my first problem with C++. It was 7pp so don't blame me that I needed help solving it!
People Who Influenced My Coding Experience:
LogicXD (One of the people who peer pressured me to learn python D:)
My Dad (Got me to consider going into computer science)
Rainflight24 (Very good at teaching and coding.)
VectorGraphicz (Good at making slideshows with me.)
WhyEric (Helped me learn code so I am now pretty good.)
Indirectly Influenced Me:
He's my big brother. Good computer programmer. He's still mean to me.
