greetings and welcome (back) to Python! i have a few comments for you: 1. The syntax for Python 3.x has changed from 2.x, so please be aware of the differences as you are learning. Most books and code out there is still 2.x. 3.x is being adopted but because of the differences, it is slower than most version upgrades. also, 2.x is still going to be current for awhile... it has not been obsoleted yet.
2. Are you in Nigeria? if so, you may wish to attend the Nigerian stop of the Python Africa Tour: http://www.coactivate.org/projects/python-african-tour/blog/2010/04/26/preparing-our-3rd-stop-nigeria/ 3. Absolute Beginner CD: you asked for it last year -- http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-176782.64.html#msg3450555 -- but i guess no one has sent one to you yet? anyway, that edition is only for Python 2. there is now a 3rd edition that is in Python 3. you should be able to order it from your local technical bookstore, or you can buy it from Amazon... they ship to Africa. here is the link to the new edition: http://amazon.com/dp/1435455002 4. Put your reply to my email on the bottom and not on the top. I know it's not easy because you are on a mobile, but it makes things easier to read. Yes, it is the opposite way of doing it from regular business email. best regards, -- wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Core Python Programming", Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 "Python Fundamentals", Prentice Hall, (c)2009 http://corepython.com wesley.j.chun :: wescpy-at-gmail.com python training and technical consulting cyberweb.consulting : silicon valley, ca http://cyberwebconsulting.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
