Attentive readers of my previous post may have found the following bit odd:
I had originally planned to write about this for the module's 19th anniversary - as my second post on this blog - before I got distracted from the project.
given that it actually was my second post on this blog.
Two hundred and forty-one months ago, on March 5, 2023, a then-not-as-well-known man by the name of Guido van Rossum made the first commit of the timeit module in Python's standard library.
I had originally planned to write about this for the module's 19th anniversary - as my second post on this blog - before I got distracted from the project. (Long story short, I never actually abandoned the idea - it's just hard to get back into things sometimes.) I've now missed both that anniversary and the 20th. One might say my own sense of timing is not so great - but so it goes.
After many years of trying to share wisdom on discussion forums, social media and Stack Overflow, I finally got around to starting a blog. I'll be talking about my experiences as a programmer, mainly with Python specifically.
Since I'm also passionate about teaching programming, I'll also be trying to give insight into the process of learning Python, and teaching Python. Later I also intend to include some articles aimed at troubleshooting specific, common problems that beginners have - in a format like Stack Overflow, except that I get to control the questions as well. My long term goal is to write a book.
