I am not a programmer, but it has been fun learning little bits of Python and making scripts to automate tasks.

We have folders for clients at work and everything older than a couple of years should be archived, aside from certain legal documents. Building a script to check if any file is older than a certain date and checking that it does not contain certain words in the filename, was really easy, and useful, and gave me a good feeling of satisfaction seeing it actually work.



Sounds like you’re a programmer to me!
