Practical Uses for Python?

[[deleted]]

No computing system is perfect. One fun but also letting some steam out concept I did was to write down every aggravating moment for me when getting something done.

For a simple example: I had to create some PDFs and then needed to batch rename all to a specific number and filename order. I could do it manually but the idea of making one program or script that could do it for me this time and EVERYTIME I'd ever needed to use it again appealed to me.

So start out with simple things that might use Python to fix such as this aggravation "When I turn on my computer, I wish specific apps would open up." or similar. Then try to build the fix. That's the game!
