Looking for some direction or challenge as a Python learner - Zedd - 01-05-2015
Hey guys,
TL;DR I want a challenge as a Python student
So currently I am learnignt o code in Python. It's the first step in a quest to code some m4d h4x0rs. Anyways, all that is besides the point. I understand a variety of basic ideas in Python including this:
- Python syntax
- Calling dates and times
- Conditionals
- Control flow
- Gathering user input
- String Concatenation
- etc.
I'm currently working on learning about how functions work. I've written a couple programs including a Tip calculator and a PygLatin translator.
If you know of any awesome resources let me know or even better if you personally want to challenge me with something. Learning every day is essential to success.

FAQs
What is the Python Challenge?
The Python Challenge is a set of riddles that require a little bit of Python programming to be solved. The solutions are entered by changing the address of the page (URL). You get used to the idea pretty fast after solving the first few levels.
What's the purpose of the Python Challenge?
I've written the challenge in hope that it will provide an entertaining way to explore the Python Programming Language. It is a way to demonstrate the great power of Python's batteries.
