I'm not great with words, so I'll try to keep this short.
Programming came into my life at a very dark time after losing something very dear to me.
It was a website called Project Euler that got me hooked.
It has maths problems that are very challenging, and not knowing any programming,
I used Excel to create tables with thousands of squares over 5MB large.
I eventually started trying Lua after it was recommended as a good beginner's language.
I studied hard, practised examples and did questions - but got frustrated over the fact that Lua,
as well as most other programming languages can't accurately add long numbers.

I brought up this in real life to a friend who was an IT School Teacher who mentioned about Python.
He sent me the 82 page workbook he uses to teach his teenage computer science class,
and I start working away at it with any free time I had.
The more Python I did and the more I practised, the more I fell in love with the language.
Everything is so logical (with the exception of 0-based indexing!!!) and easy to use,
that it became the only language I used.
After finishing the book, I started looking online for more challenges to practise my coding,
and checkIO is one of my favourites. What really sets checkIO apart from the others is the community,
who are full of fantastic people.
*
All in all, I love Python!
