Returning to my evening adventures of learning programming languages.
Peach and Chamomile is very soothing for these treacherous landscapes.

Might just take a look at Wren because of this, ty.

Been reading up on some classic literature, working through Kafka's The Trial while sipping chamomile as well.

Ir's a fun little language, m0re. Something to play with and has some interop with C too.

How's Kafka? I haven't read any Kafka books yet but they've been on my list for a while.

Chamomile, the drink of the evening!

Iโ€™ve been learning more about Python for use in ArcGIS. Gemini has been very helpful in providing clean code based on prompts, and Iโ€™m learning more about how the language works this way than I ever did through videos or books.

Peach and Chamomile sounds good. I need to wake up and get back to work, going to make some Earl Grey.

How wonderful, Boiglenoight! I always found ArcGIS confusing personally - I'm glad you're finding Gemini is able to alleviate the stresses.

When you state "I'm learning more about how the languages works... than I ever did through videos or books" - is this in regards to libraries, or how things are moving under the bonnet?

Earl Grey always packs a punch, essential for an early start indeed!

Syntax and structure. Iโ€™m beginning to understand where I can modify variables, clauses and other portions of the script in meaningful ways without breaking it.

Fantastic! I wish you luck with your journey Boiglenoight! I'm sure the Earl Gray will aid.
