Learning Python

After scanning through the archive Python articles at Clark’s Tech Blog I noticed a link to MIT’s MIT 6.00 Intro to Computer Science & Programming, Fall 2008

This subject is aimed at students with little or no programming experience. It aims to provide students with an understanding of the role computation can play in solving problems. It also aims to help students, regardless of their major, to feel justifiably confident of their ability to write small programs that allow them to accomplish useful goals. The class will use the Python™ programming language. Instructors: Prof. Eric Grimson, Prof. John Guttag View the complete course at: http://ocw.mit.edu/6-00F08 License: Creative Commons BY-NC-SA More information at http://ocw.mit.edu/terms More courses at http://ocw.mit.edu

I have downloaded the episodes from iTunes Uni and the first lecture was quite good.
It brings back old memories of sitting in lecture theatres listening to the same concepst. The only difference is we used Pascal, which shows my age.
