<p><strong>Q: What was the request about? </strong></p><p>This is a long-term mentorship on python from beginner to advanced.</p><p>We worked on our first project and I got a grasp on the mentee's skill level. This was his first time editing without a full IDE. He already had a grasp on loops, lists, sets, dictionaries and all basic syntax of python.<br><br><strong>Q: How did you help with the request?</strong></p><p>We began working on a problem involving matrix multiplication as a first project and to become more comfortable with python itself. I chose this project because the mentee had a grasp on lists, sets, dictionaries and "for x in y" type loops beforehand.</p><p><strong>Q: Plans for the next session?</strong></p><p>Continuation of the first project with a concrete lesson plan.</p><p>Explanation of list-comprehensions</p><p>Showing him the 'zip' function to reduce the need for nested loops.</p>
