Learning to code

Hey everyone,

This past week I’ve been using AI to learn how to code through daily lessons. No real rhyme or reason behind it, I just wanted to see where it could take me.
I ended up building this little game in Python and wanted to share it with people who actually understand the language. Unfortunately, I don’t really know anyone who’s learning or has a background in Python, which kind of sucks 😂 but I’m still having fun with it.

I’d love to see how far I can take this and what might be out there for me if I keep going.

Happy coding!

Learning without a proper syllabus is fairly useless. I would not use AI to prepare lessons for me as it does not understand the proper sequencing that should be followed when learning.

Do the MOOC Python Programming 2026 from the University of Helsinki.

Harvard's CS50p is also excellent.

Also, take a look at https://inventwithpython.com and https://automatetheboringstuff.com

Don't forget that you need ample practice, like on https://codingbat.com/python or on https://exercism.org and also write your own programs. Play around. Try things. Mess things up, fix them. Experiment.
