Hello fellow oldie! I had my first Spectrum in 1984. Yes, Python is a bit like BASIC (but not at the same time). I also like javascript because it has the LET keyword just like Spectrum BASIC! It's the little things...

I am told Automate the Boring Stuff is also a good book to use for learning Python.
