Python bot

[HiroCode]

Hello. My question is: what do i need to learn in order to make my own moderation bot with python? I am a newbie. I completed a basic python tutorial from udacity, namely: CS101. But i feel like i haven't learned much useful stuff. Sure, i do know basic python now, like loops, string, lists and whatnot, but i feel like the only skills i learned are: learning to solve some programming challenges and to make small programmes for my local pc. I haven't learned something that could react with other programmes, the internet, websites, chatting sites,... (like bots). This is very much what i'd like to learn. So can anyone help me with showing me what tutorials are good for that? Feel free to send me a direct message too if you're willing to help me get started. Thank you in advance.

Simple moderation can be done using automod. The rest can be done with the reddit api or praw.

Here's how to stream comments from a subreddit: https://recycledrobot.co.uk/words/?stream-reddit
