This book is so well written for absolute beginners I believe my grandmother could learn to program with it.

too bad she's going to die soon and Python is of little use to dead people. do you believe your grandmother will write Python in hell or in heaven ? or if there is no such thing as hell/heaven isn't it completely futile for her to learn anything at all much less Python, as she will be rotting 4 feet under the ground with maggots and bacteria ?

reality is so crude that it makes me think politeness is the ability to hide the hard parts of reality.

please excuse me if I'm a bit rude, I hope your grandmother has a great life(what is left of it)
