I'm working through lpthw with the lady type. Its a tremendous amount of fun so far. We are both laughing and enjoying the way @ZedAShaw is presenting the material. I cut code for food and the lady has always been interested but this is her first language. Its a great way to get started.
Every time she finishes another exercise (through 3 so far), she smiles and enjoys it a little more. There will be hard parts for sure and at points it'll frustrate me (I'm an old Perl guy, python is strange to me). But it looks to be fun.
bewhahahahaha... direct quote, as she shakes her fist at me, "You people up there... acting all lofty with your ivory towers!" She has now discovered that python's print evaluates boolean expressions to 'true' and 'false.' This is gold, so gold. Because: she's right! Especially the tower bit!
Thanks Zed!
