Welcome to another part, and here I am, the author, being inactive for months! I know, I know, I have completed the book but if you know I announced something in my message board. So, here I am going to discuss about my career and various things which I wanted to become. Before we start, I hope you read that hobby part of this book because all of the major things are related to my hobbies only. Ok so, here we start. This story will be understandable by most of the programmers I guess, but I will try to explain in simple words.
Right now, my current situation is that I passed my 12th exams and searching for a decent college. You may ask, for what course I am opting for? The answer is simple, Data Science/AI/Machine Learning. I know this is like a rat race, since ChatGPT came and all that AI image stuff. But my interest in coding has been genuine, and I have been doing it since April 2021. I have been in this field for 2 years and yet my interest in coding is just same as before. I started with Python, the most easiest but efficient language. I know, most of my fellow devs (developers) will say that I should have opted for Java or C+, because it has more scope than Python. But in my school syllabus, there was Python, so this became my first choice. Now turning back to 2021, I learnt Python through Youtube. If you ask me, then I suggest you to learn from Youtube because there are many many experienced programmers there, who are willing to provide education for free! Anyways, I started with Python, and created a quiz bot in just some of the starting days. Like after a week or two, I got into designing that quiz bot. I used lengthy codes, hardwork for that. I downloaded voices from websites so that I could make my bot speak questions. So, I was a little bit successful with it. I used to create chapter-wise notes in my computer itself. Soon, I gained much experience and learn the basic programming. Remember, only basic! Basic includes taking input from user and performing simple calculations for me. Well, I remember about those days that, I used to become confused again and again while making Rock Paper Scissor program. Soon, I searched through Youtube and found that I could make a discord bot myself. You may think, what was my inspiration? So, when I joined discord back in April 2021, I was invited in a server, and there I saw a girl having her own discord bot. It was so so basic, that if I mentioned it (if you use discord then you know this, else just pretend that it is a way to use the bot, by mentioning and using prefix to call the bot), it just gave a small insult to the user. Yes, that's it! She didn't even code it herself. I heard that she did it using a automatic website which could write codes for her, that's why it was so basic. But, instead, that basic bot amazed to much greater extent and made me code my own discord bot. Thus starting my own journey in discord bot development. After few months, I did make a discord bot....but...that was not awesome as I expected. It became a nuisance from time to time because I coded it like if someone says hello in the chat, then the bot should respond with a greeting. But instead, my bot said hello if any user says hello randomly and that can be annoying. Really annoying. So, I thought to change it and made it work using slash commands, then it became a little popular and got invited in various servers. But then, suddenly something happened after few months. I had functioned my bot to be online 24x7, but due to some reason, it was going offline in between. This continued and eventually my bot became inactive and I didn't programmed it again as I was rather busy in studies and gaming. After many months (this year), my bot started acting up and it came online without any reason like it was trying to remind me about coding it again. By then discord had changed all the bots' settings to use slash commands and not prefix. So, I went out on a journey and after some research, yes, I was able to update it successfully! Now from time to time, I keep it updating. Though, I have entrance exams in few weeks, so that's why I will publish it's updates later on.

The next chapter will be about more of my coding career, like what I learnt all the way through my journey. Thanks for reading this out! I hope you have a nice day and stay safe y'all. Better get going. See ya and goodbye! Will meet y'all in the next chapter :D
