And why should I add it to my code?
Hello friends! I am in week 3 of my learning journey with Python. I am continuing to love it, and let me just emphasize to any other newbie software engineers that learning your second and third language are significantly easier than learning your first one.
Something new that I came…
Another week, another algorithm…
Hi friends! I had a CoderByte assessment for another job application this week that threw me a little bit for a loop: run length encoding. …
