Hi, (I apologize if this seems spammy, but I think this is a good opportunity for beginning python programmers.) We are seeking candid feedback on a new python programming online course for beginners, and will randomly select students (lottery style/5 new students each month) who are new to python to take the course at no charge. For the course project, students code a web crawler and a simple search engine front-end to query the results from their crawl (stored in their personal back-end mysql db). Some of the python libraries covered/utilized in the course include urllib2, BeautifulSoup 4 (bs4), robotparser, numpy and mysql.connector. There is no compiler to install because the student development environment (used to edit, save and run python program files) is 100% web-based...meaning, only a web browser is needed to access. Here is the link to the sign-up form - http://www.livefirelabs.com/python-online-course.htm [1] ... and details about the course are here - http://www.livefirelabs.com/learn-python-programming-01.htm [2] The next new student selection, as indicated on the sign-up web page, is May 1, 2015. Thanks! biker
