Day 2:
Today we are going to make a Discord chat bot. Bots have always been interesting to me.
Trying to make a computer program behave like a human sounds like a fun
challenge, and a great way to play some fun pranks on my friends on Discord.
So far, I have sketched up the initial framework in my python program using the
discordpy library. I will need to learn more about the following:
- asyncio
- coroutines
These seem to be two main concepts that this library uses, and it will help aid
my skills in the future when making programs that focus on performance.

# 100 Days of Code
### Day 3:
Today I could not find time to work on the coding aspect of the bot, but I did
grab some audio recordings that I need for the bot. I am mainly making this bot
to prank my friends in discord with voice recordings of funny moments that
occur in discord. I am going to make it queryable via prepending commands with
a !. I still did get to code today for work. I am working on some stuff in
python and I have to write unit tests, so I wrote a test for a couple of
functions

# 100 Days of Code
### Day 4:
Today I worked on some more unit tests with a program I am building at work. I
learned a good deal about unit test calls and the different assert options you
can pass. I also looked further into the discord python library and copied some of the
example bots into an examples directory in my repo. I will need to experiment
further with those and look up more information on asyncio and how to properly
use it.
