That's really probably the best way to program - when you program things you enjoy you tend to be more likely to stick with it. Do you like games? Maybe you could program a tic-tac-toe game. Or a guessing game. Do you like math? Perhaps you could write programs that will do certain math functions for you (Like the Fibonacci series, computing area, maybe even doing some calculus). Do you like drawing pictures? If you use Tkinter or the turtle module you could write some programs to do that. Maybe you could try writing your name, first in block, then in script (actually the script would end out rather complicated, but certainly fun[if that's what you enjoy]!) And of course, if you get stuck anywhere and need some help, we're always willing to help point you in the right direction. Good luck! HTH, Wayne
