With the Mac Terminal practice out of the way, it is time to dig back in to learning Python. If I have to take any other deviations along the way I will take you along with me. We started the Python Discovery Sessions by looking at the tutorials that are on the Python website. I found these to be unclear for my tastes and opted for another approach one that Jason Stanley recommended. That said...
WOWZER! What a ride! I just finished the crash course on using the Mac Terminal. If you are a LINUX Guru then this should be a breeze for you. I never have much played around with the terminal but after my mind blowing ride through the course on MAC Terminals called, “Learn Code the Hard Way“, I am endowed with a new sense of confidence, a slightly higher IQ, and...
Okay so you are probably wondering where I have been…or maybe not… I have been learning to use the Mac Terminal the past day or so and I am proud to announce I have made it to chapter 15 doing all of the excercises. What? Did you think that I would be finished by now…Hardly!
I spend half of my days doing ministry related work, then I run a business on top of that, and then my...
Okay…so here is what happened…I started out with a PEBKAC in a major way! I installed the wrong version of Python….let’s just say OOPS and move on. That problem I was having with the syntax error with the >>> print ‘Hello’ in the last session….well duh…that was part of the problem. SO…back on track and to prove it, get a load of...
Alright! Our first excercise! This is where the rubber hits the road. Where the nose goes to the grind, and whatever other cliche you want to use.
Excercise One—so excited!

For those just joining us, I am on a quest to learn the Python programming language. Perhaps it will lead me to discover ways to create and program those fancy little widgets in WordPress, or create a page that extrapolates data from one source and presents it the way I want it to…or better yet, the way my clients want it to. Either way…fasten your seatbelts and get...
Jason, my business partner, friend, and server guru challenged me to learn a programming language today. He said, and I quote, “if you’d learn to program we can stop these stupid conversations.” Not one to ever have stupid conversations I opted to take the learning route as I am always an avid learner. So I began to do some research. I had always considered myself a...
