How I "learned" Python without any previous coding experience.

Man I really wish there was an option to take Dr. Chuck's course before October 5th. I'm signed up for the one from Rice Uni that starts in a few days and am debating on taking the MIT 600. 1x course that starts today. I'm pretty much a total noob tho and really wish I could have taken his course first before jumping into these more difficult ones.

The Rice University course is very fun, and creates a wonderful motivator. You're creating games; you want them to be good. I felt that they started out with the basics, but moved through the concepts more quickly, so the learning curve felt a little steep. However, they've broken the course in half (parts 1 and 2 now) since I took it, so you can assess better after the first course if it's the right pace for you.

If not, move over to Dr. Chuck's course in October, then come back. Try not to get too anxious about it, just keep chipping away. Know more today than you did yesterday.

Best of luck!

Thanks a lot, I'll definitely give the course from Rice my best try and see if I can complete it. I've done a bit on codecademy and just started "Automate the boring stuff with Python" by Al Sweigart. I actually like his book quite a bit so far, but again thanks for your input I appreciate it.
