i wish they would teach the concepts/tools in a way that demonstrates a circumstance where you **need** them.

anyway, codecademy: intro to Python was great. intermediate Python, pretty rough. bad course, incomplete content, boring projects 

 can't wait to be done with it so i can move on to making things. 

 oh, never mind, i guess the class also sorts the student roster alphabetically, but that part of the code was already there, they didn't have the students write it. just kind of tedious and boring.
