You picked a great language to learn and it will come in handy for all sorts of things. Be prepared for the kids to outsmart you very quickly though, as I'm sure there will be a few computer whizz kids in the class!

:P That's 2 more hours than I would try and figure anything out. Unless we are really interested in it.. like watching a super long movie or playing a LONG game.. I've only actually finished a handful of games..

I tried learning programming some years ago but it felt like it was just too difficult for me to handle...

I remember when I was learning about c++ code when I went to college and I frigging loved it. I loved solving problems with it and wondering why things were not working they way they were meant too. One of these days I'm going to be going back to get a degree in something programming related as now. 

I might even look into SoloLearn after the summer season!

Little funny side story: One of the guys I went to college with was awesome at animation and when we got a new instructor for the 3rd time, he actually asked this student if he would be interested in making animated porn. This instructor only lasted 2 weeks, lied on his resume, and sexually harrassed the Massage students next door.

5 years this has been happening to me, it started here, around people that are still here. Homeland security has done nothing at all, they are not here to protect us. Dont we pay them to stop shit like this? The NSA, CIA, FBI, Police and our Government has done nothing. Just like they did with the Havana Syndrome, nothing. Patriot Act my ass. The American government is completely incompetent. The NSA should be taken over by the military and contained Immediately for investigation. I bet we can get to the sources of V2K and RNM then. https://peakd.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem

OMG. It seems nature is bent on me learning python.

I recently got a huge push to start learning to code as well. Actually, I wanted to go into data analysis using python and as you can see, I need to master python syntaxes before I can say I want to use them to analyze data.

I have started off casually reading an ebook that I downloaded for free but yet to put anything into practice. I am going to download this app and work along with you on this journey. Perhaps you are the angel sent to push me to learn to code. Let's motivate ourselves.

We will be publishing our journey weekly. 

What do you think? 

Edit: So I started with the course and lost all my 3 hearts on a simple question. I was to fill in blanks to output the multiplication of 42 and 3.

Print(42 * 3)

It keeps telling me that it is wrong. How did you bypass this? I am certain that is the right syntax

What a coincidence! I'm starting Python now too! Doing it through books but SoloLearn looks way better.

I find the problem with these courses that there is a gap if you want to head over to applications. You then perphaps need to know how to deal with enviroments, pip, locate suitable modules.  

But to get the basics under control this way is pretty nice. 

Python is a good programming language, you can do a lot of things, success!

Mis respetos y felicidades, intente aprender por mi cuenta pero es casi tan difícil como aprender un idioma también lo siento como algo pendiente así que puedo comprenderte, ojala lo logres. Yo me conformaría con aprender cosas básicas jajaja

I remember using SoloLearn a bit early on, but I found that for me at least, I retained a lot more of the concepts when I switched to watching courses on Udemy and making shit with the instructors as I watched. SoloLearn if I recall correctly has a lot of 'drag the right answer to the box' stuff and for my brain at least, it did not lead to retention.

For me to learn, I need to *use* it. I need to write the whole thing out. Maybe they got better about this in the years since I've used it, but if not and if you're finding concepts are hard to retain, try Udemy. They usually have sales on courses pop up regularly and you can get some for like 12$ (others for free). 

SoloLearn is a good choice in learning how to code. It was also the where I learnt how to code too (Learnt C++ and Python). I'm glad to see that you are enjoying the classes and also good luck in your programming journey.

Very nostalgic to see these conditions about age, I think they all start like this, and of course, the famous phrase "Hello World" was the first phrase I used in JavaScript when I was learning web development, but I gave up because it's not something I wanted.

Nice to see you learning Py, It's a language I'm interested in learning in the future, and maybe you can be interested in game development later. :)

Good luck in your learning and good studies!
