2.4 Journal: three languages in

Daily note, four headings, same rhythm as Module 1. Prompts for this one:

Under what I did: which of the three scripts you ran, and which "make it yours" changes you attempted. Be specific enough that future-you could find the right script and repeat the change.

Under what broke: the execution policy wall counts. So does an awk field that grabbed the wrong column, a Python traceback, or Git Bash not being where the Start menu said. Paste the actual error text into the note; error messages are searchable gold later, and "some Python error" is worth nothing in six months.

Under what I learned: pick the one concept that clicked hardest (pipes as an assembly line, objects with properties, the sort-and-count trio, what a function is for) and explain it in two sentences of your own words. Your words, not the lesson's; copying mine teaches nothing.

Under open questions: anything still murky. "Why does awk count fields from the end with NF?" is a good one. So is "when would I choose Python over Bash?", which Module 10 and Module 12 will answer with examples instead of rules.

Then commit and push, and make sure the three scripts went with it:

cd ~/git/lab-journal
git add -A
git commit -m "journal: module 2, first three scripts in the toolbox"
git push

Tick Module 2 in Projects/lab-progress.md. Three ticks now. The list is doing its job.
