summary
Built a restaurant-listing site and a small cron job tweeting script that ran daily from a tiny API, then refactors as Python skills grow. Explains concrete tool choices: why use pip vs apt‑get, how virtualenv solved Python 2 vs 3 dependency conflicts, and why run interactive shell + type() and pydoc while exploring libraries. Shows practical swaps: lists vs tuples vs sets vs dicts, list comprehensions, pip freeze, pylint, PyCharm and vim.
