Maelstrom

January 05, 2018

Central Processing Unit announced another new album, Alph4 from Maelstrom. It's also available on a limited 12 inch. It comes out on 16th February.

  • Followed exercise six, creating multiple strings and text in Python.
  • Two hours of written Japanese

Today I learnt that you need to use single quotes when inserting text (that you have not declared as variables) into strings.

print "Mary had a little lamb.
print "Its fleece was white as %s." % 'snow' (not a variable - so I use single quotes)

Tutorials

  • I tried to follow a tutorial on how to write variables into strings. I also made conversions from imperial to metric values.
  • Studied Japanese for two hours.
  • Went walking in the woods.
  • Some more Japanese for an hour.
  • Took photos of decorations and the outside lights.

The main thing for today is writing variables to strings.

name = Gail
print "%s is a good girl." % name
