@Alan your website is great! Really clearly written. Especially the Things
to remember part.
If you have exercises for me or have a Website with exercises, bring it on. I
think this is the best way to learn.

But in the code there is a flaw. input() will evaluate your user input.
i.e. If you give an integer expression it will tell the answer. And when
you provide a number it will take it as int type. See below.

Hi,
Im working through Python Programming for the
Absolute Beginner. One of the challenges at the end of chapter 4 is to
get a message from the user and then print it out backwards. I have
message = raw_input(Enter your message:)
count = len(message)
print count
which gives me
message = raw_input(Enter your message:)
for i in range(len(message)-1,-1, -1):
print i,
but I just get the numeric values of the string. Can anyone help?
As an alternative approach consider converting to a list and
using the reverse method...

Finallly, the -1 in the 3rd argument indicates that you want the string tobe printed in reverse order (i.e. iterate backwards by one character).Message: 1Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2006 05:58:38 -0500

..which is not what I'm aiming for. Maybe I'll have to follow Bob's
advice and just store all of the variable assignments in a function,
and then call the function every time I change one of the variables
(based on user input). I could still leave the higher-order variables
as functions
Why is it that when one variable is assigned a value in terms of another variable, assigning a new value to the first doesn't change the value of the second? This is giving me a huge headache, since I have a bunch of variables defined in terms of one another, and I want to be able to dynamically
