Project night: Difference between revisions

====Learning Python====

* The official Python tutorial: http://docs.python.org/tutorial/. This tutorial is very comprehensive, but it sometimes throws in unnecessarily advanced concepts. This is a solid tutorial for people with prior programming experience, and is still a good tutorial for new programmers if you are willing to skip over the advanced concepts and come back to them later.

* How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python: http://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/. This tutorial does a particularly good job of introducing programming concepts and terminology.

* Learn Python the Hard Way: http://learnpythonthehardway.org. Despite the name, some people find this to be a gentler introduction than the official Python tutorial.

* An introduction to Python through writing games: http://inventwithpython.com/chapters/.

* A project/lecture on object oriented programming run by Anna Callahan. Download files here: [[July_project_night/OO_lesson | Object Orientation for beginners]]
