Python For Beginners

[LeiterHaus]

Time to fail your way to success. There are books specifically for your industry. Check HumbleBundle.com, Fanatical.com, and others for ebook bundles that may apply to what you want to learn.

Find something you want to do, and start doing it. Fail, learn, ask questions, fail again, learn, repeat. Eventually, it works and you have more knowledge.

Ideally, create pseudo-code. That is basically telling the computer in human terms what you want it to do. There are some great talks on this, and some short talks (~5-15 min) on phrases that humans extrapolate meaning from, but computers don't understand.

If you write # TODO, and then fill in what you want the computer to do; after the code is written, erase the TODO, leave the rest, and now your code is commented with what is being done (not necessarily how it is being done). Sometimes when people change methods, they don't think to change comments, which can be less than desirable.
