#Week 8/14 : 100 Days Of Code

Day 50

Have you ever felt restless and full of nervous excited electricity circulating through your body? You cant't think of anything else except the problem in hand. No matter how much you force yourself to you end up thinking on how you can optimise your solution and creating backups in case this solution fails. You can't even sleep in peace. You think you've hit a solution - and then some random error pops up - and now validating your model accuracy is going to take another half a day.

Day 51

I've rectified all the errors and I'm letting my model train. I'm also forcing myself to do something else and not fall into a 1 dimensional thought space centred on the model. I really hope it works. Please work.

It worked. Yay. We assess the performance through a confusion matrix which can be confusing to read.😂

These are the current stats:

- 55550 failures it classifies as failures
- 7880 failures it doesn't classify as failures (I'm worried about this)
- 575561 non failures it classifies as non failures
- 9 non failures it classifies as failure

Day 52

I published my tableau story. It really appeals to your visual neurons. I'm making slides for a post-contest analysis of a few coding problems. It's day after tomorrow.

Day 53

Making the slides is taking so much longer than I imagined. Teaching someone is way harder than simply coding. I'm stuck with wiggle sort.

I can come up with an O(NlogN) solution. But they want an O(N) solution with O(1) Extra Space.

Day 54

The presentation went well ok I guess(25 mins). It'll be uploaded on YouTube soon. But I tried my best. I'm particularly proud of the slides I created. I'll face it after the exams lol.

I also finally found a solution for wiggle sort which was understandable in O(N) and that didn't do virtual indexing tucked away in a leetcode discussion thread. Talk about underrated.

I loved the simplicity in the author's solution.

Day 55

I had a meeting with the end users of the power BI dashboard. I also got approved for study leave. Exams start in less than 1 week and there's so much to study. I'm not getting the mood to study. It still feels really far away.

I have 6 subjects to tackle and have 6 modules in each subject.

It's all empty now. :(
Hoping to finish a minimum of 21 modules by next Friday.

Day 56

Time flew really quickly. I'm at the halfway mark now. I have to take a break from 100 Days of code till my exams get over since my exams don't align with the purpose of why I started 100 Days of Code.

I applied for Outreachy Internship also. I will know if I made it through on March 15. I hope my initial application gets accepted. My exams go on till March 18.

Until next time,
Bye!
