Terry, Thank you for the suggestions. I am going to stick with these little toy programs as you aptly put them to make sure I have a good grasp on the basics. I completely agree with you that I need to do something that I want to solve a problem with and in fact, thats whats motivated me to find

It is quite clever but quite a subtle twist for a beginner to think
of.
However even in your version there is a pattern you should look
out for:

Bob, Thanks for the input. I was trying to stick to the lessons in the chapter whose problems I was working on and so I knew using a for loop might be a bit better, I decided to stick with the stuff from the chapter. I do like the way you simplified using the random function, very clever. I need to

johnf, Yup, I actually thought that might be my mistake but I forgot to actually try it. So I did and revised the code (which I'll post below) and now get a syntax error after my heads += line..yikes .# A program that simulates flipping a coin 100 times and the reports the number of heads and tails

Kent, Thanks once again."I wonder if maybe you need to write some code? You talk about *reading* but you haven't mentioned *writing*. You can't learn to program without writing programs - that would be like learning to write a foreign language by reading books in the language - it helps but it won'

OK, I think you have your work cut out for you :-) I still think my
basic approach can work but the output handler is going to have to keep
track of a fair amount of stuff as it gets parse events. The good news

Kent, Thanks for the reply."I would pick one input format and work on a program that reads it and generates some kind of events for everything significant that happens. At first the events could be just print statements, later they can reformat the data to the required output format. From your desc
