I started last year using Swift Playgrounds. I was lazy and just pasted the input into a multi-line string. I had to switch away from Playgrounds after a couple of days because it would crash due to memory issues. It traces every line of execution and the intermediate values of all variables. I really enjoyed doing the challenges in Swift, but I did have to switch to using my Mac to do it.

This year, I’m learning Python by using a Raspberry Pi 4 directly connected to my iPad via USB. Should be another fun month!
