Twelve years ago, I started with "The Quick Python Book". Harms and McDonald. Manning Pub.
I learned a lot in a hurry. I still use it for reference once in a while to refresh my memory. On 1/6/2015 1:46 PM, Stephen Nelson-Smith wrote:
Hello, My son is interested in programming, and has dabbled in Scratch and done a tiny bit of Python at school. He's 11 and is going for an entrance exam for a selective school in a couple of weeks. They've asked him to bring along something to demonstrate an interest, and present it to them. In talking about it, we hit upon the idea that he might like to embark upon a prorgamming challenge, or learning objective / project, spending say 30 mins a day for the next week or two, so he can show what he's done and talk about what he learned. Any suggestions for accessible yet challenging and stimulating projects? Any recommendations for books / websites / tutorials that are worth a look?
