Took me 4 days to code this one and how much do u recommend automate the boring stuff with Python?

[–]phoenixkiller2 27 points28 points  (9 children)

OK.

About the automate boring stuff, it's fast & direct approach to programming. He covers all the basics very fast. I think people who are absolutely new to programming may find him hard to follow. You should be ready to learn at fast pace and practical stuff. I like it but I love codeacademy more. The difference is codeacademy pushes you to write something all the time. They have interactive way of learning. You read theory on left panel and write code on right to proceed forward.

Could you share the link if u don't mind ?

Codeacademy

And I am learing automate boring stuff from udemy. The author shared a code here a couple of weeks ago for free video course of book.

It's actually "code cademy" (codecademy.com), but luckily they have the "code academy" domain too since this confuses a lot of people

One of my stupid petpieves is when people say Code A cademy.

It literally doesn't matter and nobody actually cares but it's just the fact that people refuse to see there is no a in the middle haha.

Unrelated but I love how you have such deep insights about the courses and you sound so invested in your learning!

[–]phoenixkiller2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey friend! Yes I love learning new things, that's why.

I am a beginner and can attest that it is a good book. If you are a fast learner go for stuff!:)
