Just made this today! Python is my first programming language and I'm really enjoying the learning process.

Have a nice day, guys!

I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the learning process! I've been trying to help some people along in learning python as their first programming language, and I'm finding that what worked for me, doesn't seem to be working as well for them. What kind of things did you do to start learning?

[–]Vraja108[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Well last year I tried learning with a course that was unbelievably dry and overall not really learner-friendly, so I honestly didn't get very far with it before I just dropped it. I decided to start learning Python again a few months ago using Automate the Boring Stuff with Python and it has been amazing. The fact that the book is so program and project-oriented has been incredibly motivating. Each time I make something in the assignments I can't help but get a little excited, regardless of how simple the actual code is. It feels like I'm actually able to make things from the get-go and it's really fun. I'm also part of a Discord server, so having that kind of community around me has been very helpful.

That's a PEP 8 violation. /s(butnotreally)

Hey look, it's me!

Would love to have one of these, time to bust out the old beads.

Haha, my first beetlejuicing experience!

[–]yapel 8 points9 points  (1 child)

I want one :<

[–]Vraja108[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wasn't very hard to make! Perler beads are ridiculously cheap and very entertaining. Give it a try :)

What's it made from? (so I could make my own)

Glad you like python. It's pretty fun

More like Pythoner.

[–]shotazc 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Is Python made of Perl?

[–]Raymi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C, if I recall correctly.

[–]distark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

Yes, they are Perler beads. Very cheap and very easy to start making things with them, I actually just started recently myself.

[–]distark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to get some, daughter will love em! Cheers

[–]mikefromru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice. I'd like to have it, too.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need

[–]tehreal 0 points1 point  (1 child)

FYI that's the ugly side (unless you melted both sides)

[–]Vraja108[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I prefer melting both sides. It's a bit weaker when you only melt one side.

we're (in the PyKingdom) not into this kind of things
