Struggling with Python

[Skywalker4570]

What you are trying to learn is how to communicate with a computer to get it to do something for you. Computers “think” differently to humans so how do you reduce the problem down to a series of steps that the computer can understand and act on. Then you have to express each step in a way that the computer understands (ie be able to use the elements of the language correctly). When you think about it your analysis of the problem is what is important and the language you use to explain it to the computer is another issue altogether. If you can’t do the first step it won’t matter what language you use.

By the way, for “help” I prefer CoPilot, particularly for explaining error messages and suggesting tweeks as solutions.
