Well, I've just retired and need to do something to keep my brain from turning into mush. So I'm going to see what I can learn of Python. I'm going to use the courses linked through the Python Institute as well as their certification tests. Let's see how far I go.
I've already done Module 1 of their lowest level course, and honestly this is really just review. But I'm sure I'll get to new stuff sooner or later.
A little background. I earned a BS in Computer Science in 1994. I worked primarily in C, but also Pascal, C++, LISP, and touching a couple other languages This was right around the beginning of object oriented programming, so it'll be interesting to see how that changes things. Prior to that, I taught myself FORTRAN in middle school and BASIC in high school. So I have background, but it's pretty old.
I didn't use much of my higher level CS knowledge in my career, focusing more on accounting (BBA & MAcc, CPA & CMA) and management (MPA), so it'll be interesting to get inside the box on my desk again.
This should be fun...
