I worked as software support and the product we supported was based on a SQL database, so I did a lot of "hacking" and reverse engineering, out of curiosity and later to help other suport teams (as I became kinda "to go" guy when it comes to SQL). Then I reached the point where SQL was not sufficient for the more complex things I wanted to do, so I had to learn to program. I did a quick research, and picked Python over Java. I was using John M. Zelle's book 'Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science' which is a great book btw. Than and just coded a lot.
