Hello World,  As some of you have noticed, I've recently been learning Python with my buddy "H", we have a specific application in mind that we are trying to create, so we are doing our best to gather as much helpful information as we can while creating mini programs on the way. I actually bought a journal in which I'm keeping track of helpful information that I come across that would be helpful to our final application. And I will be sharing some of these projects and what I've learned as I go along. Ok, so one thing that I had some trouble with was loops. The two specific ones are the "FOR" loops and the "WHILE" loops. Since many of the tiny programs that I'm working on sometimes ask the user if they want to try something again, a WHILE loop would be great for such a thing. So on a program I was working on yesterday, I literally deleted the whole loop area and started form scratch, and I saw how simple it actually is. So here is the test ...

Hello World,  Today I wanted to bring up a programming language called Julia, and I have to say, this sounds awesome. I love the fact that people can basically frankenstien a language to be efficient and serve a particular purpose, if you don't know what I'm talking about, check out their statement about why they created Julia , its really cool. One head line that grabbed my attention was "Is Julia, a young programming language, going to give Python a run for its money?" I'm a new Pythonist, and I really like the language, in future posts I'll be posting some of my super n00b projects that I've been working on as I'm learning Python for an over all project that I want to do. I have yet to try the Julia Language, but I do like the fact that many of those that helped create Julia, came from different programming backgrounds, so they took the best features of each of the languages, and created this new hybrid language. To me it almost sounds like a plo...
