Hello. I've just started learning Python a few weeks ago. I'm using the free
"How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python". I'm half-way
through chapter 5 and I've been stumbling on a few things. I've been
teaching myself so far. I was wondering if anyone out there would be able to
help me along with this. Maybe help explain some things and give me ideas
for practice programs that go along with what I'm learning. And if you can't
help directly, maybe someone out there can point me towards somewhere that I
can get help. ok, I've talked enough. Thank you all in advance.

After reading How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with
Python, I suggest you start reading www.diveintopython.org or buy Python
2nd edition from O'reilly's, the books VERY good. It teaches you
almost everything from handeling strings to network connectivety. It
even handels python's standard GUI toolkit TK.
News: I was wondering if anyone out there would be able to help me along with this.
Sure, what seems to be the problem?

If there are parts of the tutorial that are gibing you problems, please
point them out here. That way, you'll get comments that will help you
understand them, and we'll be able to determine if the tutorial can be
improved to avoid the confusion.

Another good reference would be the mailing list by the same name as your
subject line. http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
BTW, the tutor list has been strangely silent for a few days. Anyone know
what has happened?

The Python Tutor list ( http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor) seems
to be made for this.

I would like to design typing tutor exercises for Afrikaans (and other

Does anyone know of an existing script for this, or can anyone write me
one, please?
Preferably I must be able to extract words which contain...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
