This is wonderful. I've been doing Learn Python the Hard Way and loving it, this is a really cool addition. I recently picked up the book 'Automate the Boring Stuff with Python,' and one of the best things about it is the practical applications really help drive understanding - at least for me.
At work I write a lot of PowerShell scripts, and I think the reason I took to it so quickly is because the need was there. It was never ambiguous what I was going to build: I knew what I wanted to make easier, what tool I wanted to use to accomplish that goal, and it set me to learning quite quickly.
- chrisblackwell 11y agoI would love to see someone make "Learn Go the Hard Way"
- kiernan 11y agoJust needs someone to step up and one day it might be listed here: http://learncodethehardway.org http://learncodethehardway.org
- natebrennand 11y agoZed's said on twitter that he's been messing with Go. It might be somewhere on his work queue to write about it.
- teach 11y agoI wrote "Learn Java the Hard Way" after Zed asked/encouraged me to. I think if someone got together 52 exercises, he'd tell them to go for it. No pun intended, honestly.
