You can make programs that do whatever you want and especially when you're leaning they'll probably do a lot of pretty pointless stuff The point here is that you need to be able to concretely formulate your goal. "I want a program that loads a paragraph and replaces every word in it with the word that comes after it in the dictionary" is a program you can actually make. "I want a program that does something to a paragraph of words" isn't really because it's poorly defined, you won't even know what you're trying to do, and when you do it you won't even know if you're done or not since you don't know what the goal was Thanks for the advice, makes sense the way you put it. SomeLikeItHoth posted... TC you should get this free course from Udemy. https://www.reddit.com/r/learnpython/comments/obq077/automate_the_boring_stuff_with_python_online/ I'll check it out, thanks! Although I didn't get much done today since I was out. I'll be out tomorrow too but hopefully tomorrow night I can get some coding in along with my other studies. --- https://imgur.com/spfW7gv https://imgur.com/EAuZ5LW https://imgur.com/ZzXmr8X <cite>SpiritSephiroth posted [p:955689720] in ITT: Learn...
