Insane companies who have "learning" quotas...
I took python training as resume fodder. Python is pretty much like any other 3GL. Memorize the syntax and start programming. The secret lies in knowing what's already in the libraries/modules/??? so you don't reinvent the wheel.

I'll be perfectly happy if I never use python on a job. I enjoyed learning Rexx more. Wonder what the hot language will be in 20 years?

Python tenet: 'explicit is always better than implicit' ... except when you're talking about things that save typing like g-strings, no block delimiters, terse collection specifiers, etc.

Knowing built-ins vs knowing libraries equals not much difference. #learningpython

Encapsulation enforced by the honor method. #eyeroll #learningpython

I see that python has good container mechanisms, but object handling is not anything exciting. #learningpython

I don't understand why python became popular. Indention blocking is asking for trouble. Bad boolean implementation. (Not a true type, and "True/False" why the caps?)
