I'm learning Python.
The first thing I want to learn is to build the mental model. Naomi Ceder gives me the inspiration from her blog Notes on Teaching Python — Mental Models. We’re standing one the shoulder of giants and I really appreciate it. With her words and my understanding, Python’s mental model is pretty similar to JavaScript’s. In Python world, there’re immutable and mutable values and we can use wires/labels to connect them with variables, and the counterparts in JavaScript are respectively primitive and object.
Today, while I was reading Neural Networks and Deep Learning by Michael Nielsen, I felt another enlightening and charming wording as mental model is “neural networks intuition“ which just suddenly erased all the cloud in front of me.
