Just a day or two, but I was already experienced with several similar languages. It would take longer for a beginning programmer. > 2. What made you want to learn python? Don't exactly remember, but at one point there had been an existing Pyton program that I had wanted to modify. > 3. Was it difficult to learn the language? No, not at all, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was. > 4. Have you been able to get a job out of your new skill? I've had some Python jobs, but I'd say I got them through being a widely experienced programmer in general, rather than just from knowing Python. Being a good programmer isn't just about knowing languages--it's mostly about being able to turn a higher-level problem it into a programming problem, then solve the programming problem. That's not the most difficult thing in the world, but you should take a wider approach than just learning languages. This book is very good (full text online too), though it doesn't use Python: https://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
