I am still rough around the edges in PHP. I am only learning it for resume fodder. Today I did some regex just because I could. It was strange that the GO and PHP track both got the Crypto Square exercise one after the other.

I still need two more PHP exercises before its percentage passes up what I did in the Ruby track years ago. I guess my numbers were off in the previous post. Anyway, a new trophy, hooray!

I really should learn Laravel if I am going to make PHP learning proper resume fodder. Can you think of any web apps that are easy but not a to-do list? I may go to the library and see if I can find a book on it.

Update from the next day: PHP is now ahead of Ruby in my exercism.org track rankings. Also similar to the Crypto Square synchronization from yesterday, I had Diamond exercise on PHP yesterday, and today it was the next exercise on the Go track. Spooky that you have the same exercise on two different tracks so close together two days in a row.

I thought I had a ton of exercises left to get there, but today I finished learning mode in PHP and got the Fundamental award. Not sure I am getting the hang of PHP yet.

I had to go back and do a new exercise in C# since they ruined my 100% by adding a new exercise. That kicked my posterior. I think I am switching around between languages too much and it is confusing me more than making me a programming language polyglot.

Today I finally finished the last exercise on the Python track. I really wanted to get it finished so I may have peeked at previous solutions I completed. Which didn’t actually help as much as it should have.

Anyway, hooray! I am done! I guess I still have the GO track to finish.
