27/11/2023 || Day 113

Remember when I said that I felt under the weather in my last post? Lol, guess who got Covid? This was my 2nd time getting it and it honestly wasn't as bad as the first time, and it was a lot more chill compared to the cold I had in early October. However, I did use it as an excuse to stay in bed and not do any programming (though I did manage to do some LeetCode to keep up with my schedule). I'm mostly bummed about having to miss my ASL class for that week, but I'm recovered and excited to go this week!

LeetCode

Like I said, I did some LeetCode questions. I did one on Thursday, Friday, and now today, and honestly the thing that I'm realizing is that when you print to standard output (i.e. for debugging), it'll slow down the performance of your result. So if it shows you only beat 5% of other users solving the problem in the same language, check to see if you have any lines that are printing to stdout and delete them. That'll speed up your solution.

Frontend Mentor REST Countries - Log #4

I decided to spend some time on this project today after neglecting it for nearly a week, and I got some serious progress done! I think all that's left to do is style the specific country page properly (for desktop and mobile) and do some string manipulation for the search function. Other than that, I think I got it working!! I'm also really proud of the search function, where you start to type letters and countries that include that substring will show up. It's helpful if you don't know the exact spelling of a country name.

Good morning from sunny Bordeaux. Writing 20 pages for my thesis today! Love you all!
