#5kyu

[kaiasky]

go club! I got to play 4 games vs 14-15 kyu (weird to play against significant handicap stones! The normal club I'm usually the one taking handfuls of handicap stones) and 2 games against a 5kyu (very fun i love playing against people a few stones stronger than me)

sad how much of my sense of belonging depends on my achievements in kata female minicadet -5kyu

How to do Matrix Multiplication in Python — Codewars

https://hecodesit.com/how-to-do-matrix-multiplication-in-python-codewars/You may have Multiplied matrix in your linear algebra class but you know how to multiply to the matrix in python. In Today’s post, we will go through the process of How to do Matrix Multiplication in Python from scratch.

Codewars Python in its 5kyu Kata has given us a problem to Multiply two Matrix.

Question

The Question is Available HERE I have copied the question below too.

Write a function that accepts two square (NxN) matrices (two-dimensional arrays), and returns the product of the two. Only square matrices will be given.

How to do Matrix Multiplication in Python:

We are given two matrices, A and B, of size 2×2 (note: tests are not limited to 2×2). Matrix C, the solution, will be equal to the product of A and B. To fill in cell [0][0] of matrix C, you need to compute: A[0][0] * B[0][0] + A[0][1] * B[1][0].

More general: To fill in the cell [n][m] of matrix C, you need to first multiply the elements in the nth row of matrix A by the elements in the mth column of matrix B, then take the sum of all those products. This will give you the value for cell [m][n] in matrix C.

Example

 A         B          C |1 2|  x  |3 2|  =  | 5 4| |3 2|     |1 1|     |11 8|

In Review: March 2 - 13

Things I did

Some exercises from JS30: an exercise to build a clock with CSS and JavaScript, where the clock hands change depending on what time it is. The style of the videos and teaching manner doesn’t quite work for me;

Built a meme generator as part of a Scrimba course. Finished the React introduction altogether.

JS Basics and CodeWars katas, still on my way to 5kyu

Thoughts

Lot of personal things came up. Taxes, data gathering, tooth/nerve pain and emergency dentist visit. 

Things I learned (or refreshed knowledge of)

Read the Refactoring UI book, which taught me a lot about how to approach design systematically as a front-end developer. 

Read an interesting post from someone who spent five years in energy, on how it’s not at all what people might think -- especially given margins and power dynamics. Some VCs were speculating on Twitter that many people in “big tech” would move on to “big purpose” companies in the few years. Remains to be seen. 

Saw a helpful site with public career progression charts for engineering roles: Progression.FYI

Watched a comprehensive video on the landscape of web development in 2020. 

Read some more on how to work responsibly and improve self confidence.

Things I want to change (or do more of)

Be less anxious about Coronavirus, though hard to figure out how.

[kaiasky]

made some truly impressive misreads in the game against the 5kyu guy. but it was still fun!

Week 3 & 4

Wow, well that went quick. 

Week 3 started out with a visit to Thoughworks to attend a seminar on Imposter Syndrome. It was brilliant and I even met a few ex Makers students. I felt empowered for all about 24 hours until I got stuck on our weekly challenge. It can just take one little knock sometimes to make me lose my confidence. I have to keep reminding myself that i’m a beginner and i’m here to learn! Throughout the course I will try to rise above these feelings of doubt and just keep on believin’! (As a Bieber fan may say.)

On the Wednesday my cohort organised a meet-up, those who weren’t working/ were in London came. It was good to meet them before the start so we could at least recognise familiar faces. It felt a little strange, we’d all chosen to do the same thing, leave our stable careers, we were at the very start of this rather fast and mildly terrifying journey. Before we know it we’ll be in May and finishing up!

Week 4 was quite a steady one, I had to make it to 5kyu on Codewars which was slightly challenging. It takes some power to get that circle all the way around but I managed it. It was also our first week trying out RSpec. We had to pair up so I met with Christos and we hacked away at it for a few hours. Making sure we understood it completely before going to the pub for a well deserved drink. 

On Friday I attended graduation for the November Cohort. The projects were all brilliant and it was scary to think that in 12 weeks time that would be us. We went with the graduates and juniors to the ‘after party’. I spoke to so many people about the course and everyone was so genuinely positive about their experience at Makers. It was really exciting to hear. But they all had the same advice for this weekend. -Don’t do anything, just chill. You won’t be doing that for a while.- Oh and ‘say goodbye to your friends and family’.

So today is Sunday. I start tomorrow, I’ve pre warned my boyfriend that he won’t be seeing much of me for a while and I think i’m all about ready. I’ll try to keep this blog updated as much as possible. If you’ve made it to the end of this post, well done. See you next week.
