I like Python. Great! Welcome to the forum. (You should avoid coming here via Google Groups, since it is a very poor application for participating in discussion forums . There is virtually no hope it will ever improve, so you should use e.g. or any other Usenet client.) > i read a book, python for kids a playful introduction to programming, > it is very easy but very effective to me. Glad to know that book is helpful. > so, I hope my python ability is higher... > What should I do?? The Python Wiki has an index of beginner resources, please see . > ps. In fect, I did try to Django, but it was very difficult.. Writing a web application is a pretty complex task, and Django provides a lot of power. You should set your expectations lower until you gain a lot more skill with the programming language. > Do you think I will make any program?? Yes! See the tutorials listed at the above Beginner's Guide. You should also find *existing* projects using Python – preferably ones you use yourself already – and offer to contribute there as a means of learning. -- \ “Guaranteed to work throughout its useful life.” —packaging for | `\ clockwork toy, Hong Kong | _o__) | Ben Finney
