Week 5 - BALT 4396B - Python and Python HTML

 Python + Python HTML

Python is a programming language that has been growing in popularity and may be the most versatile in the software industry. If you are interested in diving into AI and coding, starting with learning a simple program is beneficial. Python works great in this case because it's not super complex like it may seem or sound. It is actually considered to be one of the easier programs to learn. That is because of its extensive community and the versatility. Of course, it will take some time to pick up on the fundamentals, but compared to other programs it might be more of a breeze to get through some lessons. You can find a lot of help/advice online on python and even lessons. Learning the tools (even the basis ones) and taking some time to practice them will eventually transfer over to more complex work. It'll make the transition over to harder work feel like plain sailing. 

Python also allows for easy access through Google Colab. You can put into your browser Google Colab and then open it up. From there Google Colab allows you to start a new notebook where you are able to work with ChatGPT, enter prompts, create codes, etc. It all saves into your drive. This saves up a lot of time and space on the machine you are working on. It's not necessarily a bad thing to download software's onto your device, but that can get messy. That is why an online software like Python is recommended to learn as it saves time and even data. It's also used broadly by creators, and you can share and work off of other creators' notebooks. 

One of the interesting features Python provides is the HTML Module. With this module coders/creators are able to create applications, video games, websites, etc. To use this module, you don't have to download any extra software's. It's already installed within the Python program. An example of what an HTML is this blog here. This blog has a code running behind it. What Blogger is doing is creating an HTML for this certain blog post.
