What've you got for hobbies? As my first Python
based project I wrote something that put up a GUI
and allowed me to add and delete records in a file
so that I could catalogue my model railway collection.
Now I could have used a dB

Hmm, my hobbies...well, programming for one. :) Also literature and
anything computer-related. I suppose I could try to catalog some books.

Since you want to learn to use python with a database you may want to
try it with SQLite. SQLite is a very easy to use database that stores
the whole database in one file. Working with it would be very similar
to working with Mysql through python.

can't get MySQL to work on my computer, so I'm at a dead end there.
Seems like the best option for cataloging though.
if you want to play with SQL and Python's DB-API *without* having
to install server

The thing about mysql is that it's also the db used on my website, so I
figure it might be nice to learn that one in case I ever need to use
that db also.

You may find the attached files of interest. I wrote this PyGame script
in order to teach my sons (ages 8 10) about some programming concepts.
I intentionally avoided any function or class definitions, and tried to
use minimal Python concepts.
I think it's quite impressive that you can do a

Try creating simple games using PyGame. Think of simple things like
minesweeper.

This challenge is fantastic. Clever, addictive and really gets your
mind working. I
I would second the vote for pythonchallenge. It's what taught me
Python.
The amazing thing about the python challenge is by the time your done
with it, you've gotten through a very large and diverse sampling of the
python docs. It really gave me a good understanding of all the things

I don't have any dearth of Python needs ( I now, sort of pay my tuition
through Python :-) ). But I use it for fun as well, say gaming. For
example, I have scripts that send keystrokes based on voice commands or
other keystrokes.
