In the beginning of August I wanted to learn a little bit about coding. I mean I took a semester of computer programming in college and struggled, but it was interesting. Insert MOOCs and I'm all set. I signed up for the Coursea course An Introduction to Interactive Programming in Python (Part 1). I am in love. I am only in the 3rd week of class, but I can't get enough. I finish the assignments during the 2-day weekends, then wish for more the rest of the week.
For me, the assignments are just challenging enough that I have productive struggle and a real feel of accomplishment when finished. I'm also learning a lot about being a student again.
Here is a screen recording for this week's mini project. Nothing earth shattering here, but still cool. It's called Guess the Number.
