Do I deserve to be proud of this small accomplishment?

So I started really learning how to code in python only a couple days ago, and since then I decided to code something up in my own time. The problem was that someone posted a large .txt file of something that i'm sure no one would take the time to parse through by hand. I decide to write a program that looks for word occurrences and matches them to a specific string in the .txt file. I'm sure that it is easy for many programmers, but I just started this and I was able to write something I felt was decent. As a beginner, should I be proud of writing something small?

I'm also looking for ways on how to make it a better program; Maybe write the program so that you can search certain strings by category? Also, should I post it to github?

Who is to say what you can and can not be proud of?  If you are proud of yourself, take the win!

Also, the size of the code base is unimportant.  If you set out to solve  a problem and succeeded then of course it's a win.

As for github:  why not? There is no harm in keeping it and it may be useful again someday.

good job :)
