WEBVTT 0 00:00.320 --> 00:01.010 Hey, guys. 1 00:01.010 --> 00:04.370 Welcome to Day 38 of 100 Days of Code. 2 00:04.400 --> 00:08.360 Now, today, I've got a challenge project for you. 3 00:08.360 --> 00:16.550 And this challenge project is going to be building an Exercise Tracking Application using Python and 4 00:16.550 --> 00:17.690 Google Sheets. 5 00:17.780 --> 00:23.870 One of the things I've been trying to do recently is to track my workouts, and I've been doing that 6 00:23.870 --> 00:25.880 on pretty much pen and paper. 7 00:25.880 --> 00:30.560 But wouldn't it be nice if we could track the workout that we're doing? 8 00:30.560 --> 00:31.460 What time? 9 00:31.460 --> 00:38.210 How long we've been doing the exercises for, and also figure out how many ice creams we can eat because 10 00:38.210 --> 00:39.650 of the workout that we did. 11 00:39.650 --> 00:43.370 So tracking the amount of calories we've used up as well. 12 00:43.910 --> 00:52.280 Now, a lot of the inspiration for this project comes from the recent news on the OpenAI's GPT3 13 00:52.280 --> 00:59.110 AI model. And it's a really smart natural language processing model where, for example, if you went 14 00:59.110 --> 01:01.930 onto Wikipedia, you found an article on bread, 15 01:01.930 --> 01:06.130 you decided to use this model to ask it, well, why is bread so fluffy? 16 01:06.160 --> 01:11.410 It can actually search through all of the text and find you the relevant part. 17 01:11.410 --> 01:18.160 So it's doing some intelligent stuff behind the scenes to understand what you're saying, and also understand 18 01:18.160 --> 01:19.840 what the article is all about, 19 01:19.840 --> 01:26.110 and this is called natural language processing, but it's just a very powerful one. 20 01:26.860 --> 01:33.610 Now, in our case, we're also going to use natural language processing, and we're going to write down 21 01:33.610 --> 01:38.230 the exercises that we did but in a normal English sentence. 22 01:38.440 --> 01:45.190 And at the end of the lesson, I'm going to show you a way that we can run our Python console online 23 01:45.190 --> 01:47.350 using an online code editor. 24 01:47.380 --> 01:53.260 Now I've pulled up this same page but on the Chrome browser on my mobile phone. 25 01:53.260 --> 01:58.210 So this is what I might do after a gym workout, or after a quick cycle, 26 01:58.210 --> 02:05.110 and what we're going to try and do is to get the data to go into our spreadsheet here on Google Sheets. 27 02:05.500 --> 02:15.630 So here I'm going to type that I ran 5K, and cycled for let's say, 20 minutes. 28 02:15.960 --> 02:21.510 So this is my full input and it's pretty much just a plain English sentence. 29 02:21.540 --> 02:25.770 Now I'm going to go ahead and hit Return to trigger the code to run, 30 02:25.770 --> 02:32.250 and immediately you can see that my activities have been logged. So the date and time have been added 31 02:32.250 --> 02:33.480 automatically. 32 02:33.540 --> 02:40.620 It's understood that one of my activities was running and it figured out the duration based on the distance, 33 02:40.620 --> 02:46.140 So on average, it might take somebody 31 minutes in order to 5 kilometers. 34 02:46.140 --> 02:51.180 And then it worked out the number of calories I've expended doing that activity. 35 02:51.180 --> 02:57.660 And it did the same thing for my cycling, except this time the duration comes from my input and the 36 02:57.660 --> 03:00.510 calories is calculated automatically. 37 03:00.780 --> 03:02.490 So this is really exciting. 38 03:02.490 --> 03:03.960 And the best part? 39 03:03.960 --> 03:06.330 You're going to be building it all by yourself. 40 03:06.890 --> 03:12.560 You're going to be using a bunch of things that you've learned so far, including the Python DateTime strftime() 41 03:12.560 --> 03:20.120 method, using APIs, making POST Requests, creating Authorization Headers, and Environment 42 03:20.120 --> 03:20.990 Variables. 43 03:20.990 --> 03:26.450 You're going to be doing a bunch of this step-by-step by yourself, and if you head over to the next 44 03:26.450 --> 03:29.540 lesson, there's the instructions for how to get started. 45 03:29.540 --> 03:33.290 So I hope you're excited to get started and I'll see you on the next lesson.
