I've gotten off to a good start for programming using Python (my first programming language). I can do the basics (different kinds of loops, variables, functions), but I'm not too good with classes yet. I've written some really small programs just for kicks (most involve statistics of different situations using random numbers).
I'd like to get to the next level, but I'm not sure how. Are there any suggestions for continuing to learn? How did you guys learn?
Learning is a process and I'm far from done :-)
Python was also my first language (save for some BASIC long ago). The the single most useful thing for me was the Python tutor list <http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor>.
Aside from getting helpful answers to your own questions, you can learn a lot just by watching. Early on, I didn't get much out of reading c.l.p, but the tutor list was pitched at a level much more appropriate to the understanding I had.
Other than that:
Write code. Read code. Repeat. :-)
Best,
