Hi! I’m Ricky.
Hi, my name is Ricky, and this is my e-portfolio. I am 12 years old, and I have a younger brother called Jonathan. I also have a dad and mum in my family. Before I joined All Saints’ College in year 5, I went to Dianella Heights Primary School. I currently play two sports, tennis and basketball, both of which I enjoy.
Some of my hobbies include programming and reading. I like programming and I learn from my dad. I like writing and programming in Python and JavaScript. On the bottom, is one of my early codes, in Python that just prints out numbers from 1 to a certain other number.
import keyboard
import time
n = input("Pick an integer: ")
print('Press the space bar on the number 160!')
try:
whatever_as_an_integer = int(n)
i = 1
while i <= int(n):
print(i)
time.sleep(0.05)
i += 1
if keyboard.is_pressed(' '):
break
except ValueError:
print("That is not an integer. Please try again")
exit()
I also like reading in my free time. Some of my books that I enjoy reading are Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, and Harry Potter. Reading helps me relax and calm down. I like fantasy, action books, and sci-fi. I don’t like old-fashioned books such as Charlotte’s Web, because I find them boring and uninteresting.
