Re: [Tutor] senior project
One of my community advisers suggested I start with Python. (he also suggested this mailing list) take a look at how to think like a computer scientist by downey, elkner, etc. it was originally written for C++ and Java but Jeff Elkner, a high school programming AP instructor, ported it to Python. there are dead tree and online versions available. http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/ good luck! -- wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Core Python Programming, Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 http://corepython.com wesley.j.chun :: wescpy-at-gmail.com python training and technical consulting cyberweb.consulting : silicon valley, ca http://cyberwebconsulting.com ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] Senior Project With Python
Greetings! My name is Deric Roach, and I am a senior at Sterling High School in Sterling, Kansas. This year, the school is conducting senior projects. For my senior project, I have decided to learn the python programming language and design a simple (yet amusing) role-playing game. For the undertaking, I must find a mentor to assist my development, guide my progress, and prepare me for the final presentation of the finished product. This mentor is to put in around 10 hours of service from now until the end of April, at which point the projects will be completed. I would like to find somebody who would be willing to help me out and adopt the title of mentor. You don't necessarily have to be fluent in Python, but you must be able to give me guidance in the way of programming and/or game development. If you live farther away than is of convenience, we could maintain an e-mail partnership. A thank you all, and to all a thank you. Respectfully, Deric E.
