This was our first assignment in the Python language. We had to detect language based on the frequency of letters in the text. Python... My biggest challenge here was learning the new syntax of python. Many of the computer science concepts I learned in Java are still applicable in Python (if statements, loops, errors, etc.). However, the syntax (grammar) of the language was super different than anything I'd seen before. Reading files is astonishingly easy in python! I just had to use the open(fileName) method to read the file. As opposed to Java, where normally I would create a File, a BufferedReader, etc. Processing Data Loading in and sorting the data was the toughest part of this challenge for me. I started off by converting a spreadsheet of letter frequencies (taken from the link above) and converting it to a .csv   (comma-separated values) file. This way, each cell could be found just by splitting each line by the commas' locations. Next, for each line, I cre
