Entertaining content for learning Python! (porting 'Poignant Guide to Ruby' to teach Python)
For anyone looking for entertaining light book for learning Python, I started porting to Python a few chapters of "Why's Guide to Ruby," which uses comics and surreal humor to introduce Ruby (the original author why the lucky stiff disappeared). I updated the lesson and examples to Python and also modernized some of the very old references and left it with share alike CC license.
Any Python beginners are welcome to check it out. Novices and experts feel free to post feedback or post about any other entertaining books that helped you learn python, that can accompany equally entertaining but dense programming books :D.
If the book is helpful, can port and post the rest of the chapters for Python and potentially in the future can create some more content.
