An Introduction to Interactive Programming in Python #1
About the Course!

This course is designed to help students with very little or no computing background learn the basics of building simple interactive applications. Our language of choice, Python, is an easy-to learn, high-level computer language that is used in many of the computational courses offered on Coursera. To make learning Python easy, we have developed a new browser-based programming environment that makes developing interactive applications in Python simple. These applications will involve windows whose contents are graphical and respond to buttons, the keyboard and the mouse.

The primary method for learning the course material will be to work through multiple "mini-projects" in Python. To make this class enjoyable, these projects will include building fun games such as Pong, Blackjack, and Asteroids. When you’ve finished our course, we can’t promise that you will be a professional programmer, but we think that you will learn a lot about programming in Python and have fun while you’re doing it.

Honestly, I am enjoying it myself, I am doing a course about microprocessor's and it's great, You have videos to watch, The tutors set you homework tasks and have your own private forum to discuss about the course itself! Confusedmile:

I honestly wont be able to handle any more than just that one course for the next little while. I'm kind of pushing it by just doing that because I'll be learning about Windows Powershell, new software, how to administrate things in an establishment, and probably VB.Net all at once. On top of this, I'll have a million different little tasks that my "co-worker" will be wanting me to work on.

I'm glad you're enjoying it though!
