# Days 1–7 of My Python Journey 🚀

👋 Hello, World! I’m Daxa Sondarva

I’ve started my #100DaysOfCode challenge to build strong Python skills from scratch.
I'm passionate about learning in public, staying consistent, and sharing what I learn with others.

This blog is a recap of what I’ve learned during Day 1 to Day 7, covering Python fundamentals step-by-step.
Let’s dive in and learn together! 📖

✨ Days 1–7 Python Learning Overview

Over the first 7 days of my #100DaysOfCode challenge, I built a solid foundation in Python.

🔹 I started with the very basics – understanding how print() works, creating variables, and exploring data types like integers, floats, strings, and booleans.

🔹 I learned how to take user input using input(), and then used type conversion like int() and float() to work with numbers. I also practiced f-strings for clean and readable output.

🔹 Then came the operators – I explored: • Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **
• Comparison operators: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=
• Logical operators: and, or, not
• Assignment operators: =, +=, -=, *=, etc.

🔹 I practiced writing programs using conditional statements like if, elif, and else – helping Python make decisions just like we do.

🔹 I moved on to loops, using the for and while loop along with the range() function. I experimented with: • Custom start/stop/step • Reversing with negative step • Looping through strings and lists with len()

🔹 After getting comfortable with loops, I created patterns using stars (*) and numbers: • Right-Angled Triangle
• Number Triangle
• Solid Rectangle
• Reverse Star Pattern
• Hollow Square
• Printed the letter “D” using a custom matrix

🔹 I also learned about Scope in Python — where a variable can be accessed using the LEGB Rule: • Local
• Enclosing
• Global
• Built-in

Here's a quick example of scope:

x = "global"

def outer():
    x = "enclosing"

    def inner():
        x = "local"
        print(x)

    inner()

outer()

🔵 Built-in
│   → len(), print()
│
├── 🔴 Global
│   → x = "Global"
│
├──── 🟠 Enclosing
│   → def outer(): x = "Enclosing"
│
├─────── 🟢 Local
│   → def inner(): x = "Local"
