Entry #4

Prompt: How is the internship meeting or not meeting your expectations/objectives and why? Do you have control of this? Explain.

Date(s): 07/10 - 07/11

Activities: Learning and coding in Python

Technical Information: Anaconda distribution of Python

Reflection:

The internship exceeded my expectations in how much I learnt during the process, as I learnt and got comfortable with a new programming language in a matter of weeks. I had control over how much I learnt, as I was often allowed to explore the language on my own and I spent a lot of time reading the documentation and doing simple tasks to become better at coding in python.

One thing I wish I had more exposure to and control over was how many people I worked with, as I only worked with my supervisor during the internship. I would have liked to talk to and collaborate with multiple coworkers and had a greater exposure to a corporate environment.
