I just "clicked" through the lesson on Conditionals and Control Flows and am on the lesson "PygLatin" .
This will hopefully be a more interesting and interactive lesson because I will be building a PygLatin Translator ... It seems to me like it will take a long time before I can reach the point where I can become a master of programming languages and even create new programming languages and technologies. This is a long road ahead, but I believe it is worth it because the power of a new technology does eventually translate into money. If one looks at the Forbes List, you will see that there are 4 programmers amongst the top ten richest people in the world (Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison and Jeff Bezos) , a very large percentage. Science and Technology is in a sense the most egalitarian field in the world, because it involves using your brains and creativity. You don't need to have a father who is a director at Goldman Sachs or a mother who is the admissions officer at Harvard to succeed in this line. All you need is have the ability to create something that many users love to use. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
