This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.
With Python, learning to program is easy and fun! Many Python programs are clear and concise, reading like plain English. This course will cover the fundamental aspects of Python including data types, flow control, encapsulation, inheritance, and helpful tools from the Python standard library.
At this point you are ready to try the Python Madlibs Challenge. The challenge consists of several tasks. Each task builds on the previous task and all tasks are attainable with basic Python knowledge.
I created my first game and it actually works! All thanks to the step-by-step approach from the MadLibs Challenge! Here's the paste: http://pastebin.com/DFQnMCST.
It was actually quite challenging to write, since I had to think about the story to tell and the commands to write. I had to run and try the program a number of times before it actually worked properly. But it was lots of fun and rewarding. 
I completed the madlibs challenge and made a game that runs, find it here: http://pastebin.com/RUWwxq9T
This is a number guessing game, not a madlib... maybe you made a post error to pastebin?
Hi Dennis,
you're right of course. As the challenge of "madlibs" was basically to write a simple game (without specifying how it had to be), I thought I could as well make a little bit more fun game, at least in my opinion. In any case, i think I touched the same or more python features that had been discussed. What do you think?
