I've recently decided to learn Python and have been working through your Python Crash Course book V2. I just finished up the chapter on classes, but before moving on I have been going back and reviewing everything carefully. So far so good. I'm enjoying myself.
I have found that I can read code and comprehend it fairly well enough after just a couple weeks, however, when I sit down to try to write something on my own I stumble all over getting the correct syntax written. I suppose I need to just knuckle down and type type type type away until the writing becomes easier.
I regret having stopped coding way back in the glory days of my youth on my C128 and Amiga... Oh well... hind sight... what ya gonna do about it...?
I'm totally new to coding (apart from a few lessons in high school 20 years ago) and I'm following along Python Crash Course V3. I've just finished the section on lists when I stumbled on this article. I gave it a go and copied the code into the editor and then tried my own version with films rather than books which was a success.
I maybe got a bit too big for my boots and tried to use .append but it didn't work. Is there a reason the loop doesn't work with .append or .pop and is there a preference for using a list like the one in the article vs a list across a single line?
