Writing about code

hashsets

In the long run, one of the things I will likely write most about is scripting and coding with PowerShell and Python. Alongside this effort, I am in the process of updating most of my scripts and adding them to public repositories to share. I learned a long time ago that the best way to know something is to:

  • Learn it
  • Do it
  • Teach (or share) it

Sharing things I have learned has probably taught me as much about them as discovering and using them
