I would second that. Maybe this is a congnitive shortcoming on my part, but I find videos not useful for learning new programming. What they are great for is seeing explicit examples of something you are doing, particular if you hit some block and need to see someone _do_ what you're failing to do. They're great for physical repair though, which again is an explicit example of a particular fixed task. Repaired our stand mixer with reference to a good video. Would not want to use a video to learn the theory of stand mixer design. Cheers, Cameron Simpson <c...@cskk.id.au> -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
