# EPF-Cohort-5 Week 3 Update

Greetings again, fellow developers! :wave:

TL;DR

Hope you all have a great week, i am here to give you a glimpse into my progress throughout Week 2 of the Ethereum Protocol Fellowship Cohort 5.

So just chill and follow along;

## What I Achieved This Week

### Exploring the GETH Documentation

I started going through the official Geth Documentaion so that u can get proper undertanding of how Geth Works, i also ran the geth client o my local machine

### Exploring the project ideas proposed by core devs

So i went through the proposed project [repo](https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-five/blob/main/projects/project-ideas.md) last week and i was interested in fuzzing. ie Fuzzing Ethereum's devp2p Protocol.

i decided to dive deeper to know the concept of fuzzing, I read some materials but i wasnt getting the whole gist, tried my hands on some stuffs, but i havent gotten a headway yet. i will dig deeper this week, that the plan. No giving up here!!!

### Exploring EPF WIKI

I spent load of time reading through the [epf wiki](https://epf.wiki/) and getting myself familiar with protocol developement focusing on Execution Layer and Testing.

notable stuffs that read this week include the following;

* [Testing](https://epf.wiki/#/wiki/testing/overview)
* [The Execution Layer](https://epf.wiki/#/wiki/EL/el-specs)
* [The Execution Client Architecture](https://epf.wiki/#/wiki/EL/el-architecture)

### Deep Diving into Go lang

I c0ntinnued my golang tutorials, the programming langauage that was used in [ Geth ]( https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum ).

The resource that i am using is [Full Time Dev Go](https://fulltimegodev.teachable.com/courses/full-time-go-dev/lectures/44605541) by Anthony De Meulemeester

Heres the [repo on github](https://github.com/scarfacedotcom/gofulltimedev) for my golang studies

### Looking Forward to Week 4

* More Practice on Golang
* Go throught the Geth Documentation
* Go through the wiki epf
