So I recently finished chapter two of my book. This is the chapter where things are starting to get a little more complicated.
I have been learning about boolean logic, statements, and operators. It’s pretty much a lot tougher now. But the cool thing is I’m actually writing stuff that looks like python now. It’s a lot more lengthy. It’s not just the simple stuff I used to do, like making strings and adding them together.
It’s especially cool cause In the Python in Practice section of the book we actually wrote a program that makes a bunch of tanks fight each other. I changed the numbers around a little so that the tank Bob would win.
I also wrote a little program that would pretty much do the same thing as rolling a die. It would randomly pick a number from one through 6. Yet again I played with the numbers a little so that it would randomly pick a number one through 100.
That’s pretty much everything I’ve been doing. I change a lot of the code around so I can learn it better. If I didn’t I would probably drive my self crazy with the word FUGU!

Great to see you’re making progress. Keep up the good work!

Looks great! I’m writing my first python PyGTK project now, but I’ve never tried PyGame, it’ll be interesting to see how you like it.

Good luck. I will follow this since I am trying to learn Python myself.
