I learned about how the atmosphere will affect the 4 forces of flight as well as the following (too complex to tell in detail but it's in a more detailed form for presentation):

1. Parts of an aircraft
2. Elevator, rudder, and ailerons
3. Pitch, yaw, and roll
4. Lift and drag

- you will spawn at Seletar Airport, ready to take off in a Supermarine Spitfire to learn about aerodynamics
- you can change controls, environment, takeoff location (every airport in the whole world), and choose between more than 60 different aircraft to fly from the Cessna 172 to the stealth F-22 Raptor (note the F-14B Tomcat mod is not functioning properly)

Today, I did some science about interactions within ecosystems, then I am ready to learn some python :)

I already had python installed from last time so I skipped until the variables & data types. But before that I need to refresh myself on what strings are since I forgot them. I spent around 20 minute on this. I learnt how to arrange strings when printing them and how variables work. I'm getting a little bored though...

I decided to do some python first before I start my BCD things because why not? Today I learnt about:

1. How does numbers work + when and how to use them

2. Inputs and variables (again)

3. Lists and list function

Also I made some things in python like:

1. A Mad Libs game (which is quite easy with variables and inputs)

2. A simple calculators (which also uses variables and inputs)

Spent a little over an hour doing this. I am so hungry (even though I ate breakfast like a little over 2 hours ago... Imma be back :)

Okay I'm back for round 2 :)

So for like the past hour, I learnt about:

1. Tuples (Took quite some time to differentiate between it and a list) 

2.Functions (quite easy to understand)

3. Return statements (almost had a heart attack trying to understand)

4. If statements (Pretty easy to understand) + comparison (confusing but i got it :) )

OK, that is like 2+ of python for today so bye :)

Before I started this, I realised I forgot about what I just learnt (like the contents, not what they are called :P), so I took like half an hour to refresh my mind.

So today I learn some thingz:

-How to build a somewhat realistic calculator (where the calc have multiple operations + I can add decimals too instead of just integers :) )

-Dictionaries ( I think that kinda useless imo, but who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

-While loop (Pretty easy to understand, though it took a while to differentiate from a for loop)

-A guessing game :) (It took a while to work since I keep missing stuff out by accident)

-For loop (Also pretty easy to understand, but it took a while to differentiate from a while loop)

-Exponent function (** looks like I am censoring something omg)

-2D list and nested loop (essentially a loop in a loop)

Today I spent almost 1.5 hours on python with no breaks (lost track of time oops) so I will continue this soon.

I know that I am never gonna finish this course if I do it fortnightly, so I took some time off the day before yesterday and covered some things:

-Building a translator (I should get paid to do this)

-Comments (no comments, ba dum tsss - ok this is terrible -_-)

-Try/Except (I will try to do this, except that I am hungry for food)

(Skipped "reading files" and "writing to files", will come back to it when I need it)

--Modules and pips (Lifesaver :))

That's all that I covered on 8 May.

Now for today, I have done:

-Classes and objects (I will have to revisit this soon 'cause I am having a very hard time understanding this)

-Building a Multiple choice quiz (I should be a teacher :) - but with commitment issues .o.)

- Object functions (Revisit it along with :classes and objects" because I also don't understand this)

- Inheritance (Pretty easy to understand since it is mostly about common sense.)

I spent around an hour doing this since I kep repeating the classes and objects part of the video. (And yet I still don't understand it *facepalm*)

I feel that it was somewhat fun to learn about the basics about python, and about how they work. It is indeed a mind-boggling journey since I encountered many challenges such as minor slip-ups and frustration when I encountered a problem with my program. And because this is only a crash course on the basics of python, I look forward to taking some time off to start learning more about python (maybe an intermediate course?). Also I really need to revisit the part about "classes and objects" and "object function" because I have no clue about what they are 0.0 . I will definitely do some research on it :)
