Have you tried the Python Challenge web site? > ... intermediate and advanced AND provides solutions. The challenge site gets pretty advanced as you progress but there is usually an easy(ish) and a hard solution and you don't get shown a "correct" one - because correct doesn't make any real sense - you just know you got the right answer when you make it to the next level. But it certainly helps you grow as a Python programmer and it especially gets you familiar with the library. > I need more practice. Often the best practice is to do. Just pick a real project and wade in. > All the classes I have taken or looked at do not provide > enough exercises (with solutions) to retain the info. I'm always wary of "solutions". They can only ever be the authors best attempt but there will always be other, equally legitimate solutions. In my recent book I took pains to make the point that the "solutions" were only one possible way of doing it and if a reader did it another way that was probably fine too. I know a lot of people like exercises (and solutions) in books and tats why I provide them, but personally I've never done them in any programming book I've read (and that means dozens), instead I solve my own problems, even ones I've already solved in other languages... You will always learn far more from real world problem solving than from, any artificial exercise/solution. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
