Why am I writing this blog?

At the time of writing this, I was going through a series of video lectures titled Computational Linear Algebra for Coders. The lecturer, Rachel Thomas, suggests a series of reasons why one should write a technical blog. Among those reasons, the one that caught my attention is "Helps you learn. Organizing knowledge always helps me synthesize my own ideas. One of the tests of whether you understand something is whether you can explain it to someone else. A blog post is a great way to do that.". So, there it is: I write this blog because I want to learn. If along the way I can share some ideas or knowledge with my readers, even better!

As the blog's name suggests, the focus will be computer code, mostly Python. Occasionally, though, I will write about the many other topics that interest me (too many for my own good!).
