Five Sheets and Docs functions this week. What surprised you most about the data structures?
Honestly that a Sheets row is just a list of strings. ["2026-04-12", "Smith 2024", "JPSP", "cited"] — the exact same list structure from Week 2 of the Python track. I expected something more proprietary.
The data structures you already know keep showing up. The app changes; the list stays a list. What about the Docs response?
read_doc returns a dict. The body is nested — paragraphs with elements — but it's navigable with the same .get() pattern. No surprises.
Consistent shape, consistent reflexes. Six questions — four from this week, two reviewing Weeks 1–2. Review questions marked [REVIEW].
Ready.
Sheets response shapes, Docs response structure, and the Drive API key difference — solid foundations for the Week 4 workflow chains.
