| post | 100-days-of-code-challenge | 2018-01-01 | programming |
With a brand new year, comes a fresh start, a clean slate. I am going to begin my new year with something I have just come across: 100daysofcode challenge. I have forked the 100 days of code repo from github and am using the log to track my daily progress. It will be fun, and it will be a great way to keep me accountable for building my python knowledge. Here is an example snippet from the code I did for day 1.
Day 1:
{% highlight python %}
def gen_ssh_keypair(): """ Generate an RSA private / public keypair """ key = RSA.generate(2048)
# generate private key - output to file
with open('rsa_privkey.pem', 'wb') as privkey:
privkey.write(key.exportKey())
# generate public key - output to file
with open('rsa_pubkey.pem', 'wb') as pubkey:
pubkey.write(key.publickey().exportKey())
return 0
{% endhighlight %}
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.
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
