Lab number 3 hit me like a truck. I was sure I understood all of the necessary concepts, but when I opened the .py file for the first time, all the text seemed to form a giant, incomprehensible mess. Having read the lab document beforehand to get a glimpse at what I would be doing, I knew I was going to make some sort of program that would spit a number of characters corresponding to the temperature and heat index (which I made a program for in the previous lab). The concept itself was acceptable, but the rigid instructions included in the .py file were extremely convoluted to me, and it took me at least 30 minutes to figure out how my teacher wanted me to make the program.
Seeing that this was one of the beginning labs in the unit, I knew that my class would need a little guidance. I didn't expect the instructions to be rigid, since we weren't allowed to edit the preexisting program or use any methods not already included. Hopefully, in the future, my class will start moving towards creating programs from a more open-ended take.
