- The purpose of this website is to teach the basics of Python programming in a semi-interactive fashion
- The exercises and writing are aimed at people who have no prior experience programming
- everal types of exercises, including programming, short answer, multiple choice, and code scramble
- automatically-graded
- Some of our exercises ask you to predict what Python will do on some example code. You could solve this instantly by running Python on the test, but avoid this! Rather, think about it and try to figure it out by yourself first.
- You can register a teacher or knowledgeable friend as a "guru" on your profile page after creating an account; they can monitor your progress and you can ask them questions using the "Help" buttons on each exercise.
