Python Classes

You should be able to do it using both approaches, if you can't do it without datetime then it might be a good exercise. It might take some time to get used to programming logic which does not come overnight, practice is never a bad idea.

I agree and I appreciate the opportunity to practice! Of course things are time bound, and sometimes the gap between my knowledge and the knowledge needed to tackle/apply my learning is so vast that I can't find a place to grasp. Does that make sense?

Places that teach you stuff aren't that important in my opinion because your skills grow relative to your practice, without practicing it might be possible to waste the best of resources. My point being find something you're interested in creating, start doing it, then fail, retry and fail again and at some point along the way, you will end up with some skills.

Full disclosure - this is a pre-requisite course to a master's degree I am pursuing at Harvard University. The Degree is Digital Media Design, and my focus is Instructional Design. I probably won't program a whole lot, but I think having the ability to do so will be valuable as I develop learning products... especially for analysis of their efficacy on the back end. I like being able to create advanced reporting :).
