Today, I was messing around with some baseball stuff online, and I stumbled upon this guy named Derek Shelton. I didn’t know much about him, so I decided to do a little digging.
First off, I searched his name in a search engine. This brought up a bunch of results, and I clicked on one that seemed to have the basic info. Turns out, Derek Shelton is a baseball manager, born on July 30, 1970, in Carbondale, Illinois. His full name is Derek Lee Shelton, and some people call him “Quality”.
- Opened the search engine.
- Typed in “Derek Shelton”.
- Scanned the results and found some relevant information.
Then, I went to another website. It’s called W3Schools, a site that’s all about web development. It’s got tutorials and exercises on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a bunch of other coding languages. It’s pretty cool if you’re into that sort of thing.
After that, I found this task online about URL encoding and decoding. So, basically, you take a URL-encoded string and change it back to its normal form. There are tools and functions to do this. I tried out a few examples, just to see how it works. It’s kind of like translating between different forms of the same address. I just played around with this for a bit and thought it was a neat little exercise.
Summary of My Little Adventure
So, I started with learning about Derek Shelton, a baseball manager, then dabbled in some web development stuff on W3Schools, and finally played around with URL encoding. Just a regular day of exploring and learning new things on the internet. It wasn’t anything special, but it’s always fun to go down these little rabbit holes and see what you find.
