05. Snail Mail (+20 XP)


# Congrats!


          
          # 🎉 OMFG we're so freaking proud! (╥﹏╥)
          print("Congrats! You've made it to the end of the first chapter!")
          
        

Here's a refresher on what we went over:

  • The print() function is used to output messages.
  • Python code runs one line at a time, from top to bottom.
  • Comments are created using the # hashtag symbol.

# Instructions




Create a blank letter.py program.

In this task, you are going to write a letter to your future self... in Python.

Take a few minutes and think about what you want to accomplish in your coding journey.

Use print() to output:

  1. Today's date.
  2. How you are feeling right now.
  3. What you want to accomplish during this course.
  4. A little message to a your older, wiser, and programmer self.
  5. Your favorite emoji to spice things up!

Now go back to part 3, make sure to write in simple present. Instead of saying "In 3 months, I will...", say "In 3 months, I have..." because we are going to manifest the future together.

When you are done, take a screenshot of your program, click "Send Mail" and post your letter.py to Twitter!


Back

The answer could look something like: letter.py

This is officially the beginning of your coding journey.

And now give yourself a big pat on the back and take a break. Pre-game is over, the real fun stuff is just about to start.
