Exercises for dive into python

Have been working through Dive Into Python which is excellent. My only
problem is that there are not exercises. I find exercises are a great
way of helping stuff sink in and verifying my learning. Has anyone done
such a thing?

Hi, I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of some online exercises to help me learn to program (in Python). I'm currently working through Magnus Hetland's Practical Python, which doesn't have any exercises/problem sets (for the beginning chapters on things like string manipulation etc). I'd rather not get another book. Cheers,

I find Dive Into Python generally an excellent text, and I am not surprised to see people recommending it...but I have noticed a few errors already: http://diveintopython.org/getting_to_know_python/indenting_code.html The function called fib (presumably short for Fibonacci) appears to produce factorials. Anyway, 'fib' should really be called 'hem'. :) http://diveintopython.org/native_data_types/tuples.html#odbchelper.tuplemethods

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
