I think you used to be able to download a copy too.

Re: all versions of python fail to indent after conditional statement
I would recommend reading a book that introduces and explains Python
rather than just diving in. I'm been enjoying "Introducing Python:
Modern Computing in Simple Packages" which can be found at
https://amzn.com/1492051365. It started from the beginning and would
answer the questions/difficulties you've raised here. It would help set
you on your quest to master Python.

Re: Ann: New Python curses book
I believe this is it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B091CL3DTK/ref=cm_sw_su_dp But for some reason the ASIN is different. William Ray Wing wrote: > I???ve ordered the book (physical volume).
