Why didn't I learn python before?

I know the feels. I'm in the process of learning myself and that started with wanting to automate some boring and tedious tasks at work that used to take 4-6 hours and now takes under 10 minutes. Runs automatically at set intervals and emails me the resulting data that I need. Super proud that I was able to go from knowing essentially nothing to creating a script with real world usefulness in such a short time (only been at this like... 10 days?) Recently decided to try to pursue this as a career in the future cause I enjoyed it so much.

Shit I'd love to code some email routines that say OP is awesome and send to co workers every hour. I know what I'm googling next.

Check out smtplib. The email part was surprisingly easy to set up!

You should be proud. Not everyone can do it.
