Hey there, it’s been a while since I last shared what’s been happening in my world. Life has been a whirlwind lately, but I’m back and ready to catch you up on everything that’s been going on.

Over the course of three days, I delved into topics like bitwise operators, number systems, and various conversations that connect one concept to another. It was quite a whirlwind experience, but incredibly rewarding.

First off, let's talk about bitwise operators. Before this crash course, I never fully grasped the significance of operations like AND, OR, XOR, and shift operators. However, as I started to understand their applications in manipulating individual bits within binary numbers, it felt like uncovering a whole new layer of programming power.

Next up, the number systems. I always knew about decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal systems, but never really appreciated how they seamlessly convert from one to another. Understanding the conversion process not only expanded my mathematical toolkit but also enhanced my problem-solving abilities when dealing with different numeric representations.

With a solid understanding of the mathematical fundamentals under my belt, I dedicated the next phase of my learning journey to recursion. Spending hours unraveling the mysteries of recursive algorithms, I tackled basic and easy questions, determined to strengthen my grasp on this fundamental concept.

But as life often does, it threw me a curveball. Just as I was gearing up to share my newfound knowledge and experiences with the world, my focus shifted. With college exams approaching, I found myself drawn to focusing on my studies. However, there was a hurdle: the exam center was a nearly 400 kilometers away from where I currently lived, adding an extra layer of complexity to my preparations.

The journey to the exam center proved to be both physically and mentally taxing, draining me of precious time and energy. And just when I thought things couldn’t get any more challenging, fate had other plans. A stubborn eye infection coupled with cold and fever.

So, that’s where I’ve been for the past 8-10 days. Lost in a whirlwind of learning, exams, and unexpected obstacles. But now, as I emerge from the depths of illness and exhaustion, I’m eager to dive back into the world of blogging and coding with renewed vigor. Stay tuned for more updates, insights, and adventures as I continue on this exhilarating journey of growth and discovery.
