One thing which = I find a bit weird: when asking for Python-help concerning raspberry pi = code or problems, a lot of people don't seem to be interested in helping = out, that's of course their choice, but maybe they don't seem to be aware = the raspberry pi is often the motivation for starting to learn to program = in Python. And as such such a reaction is a bit disappointing. >=20 > Hi Jean, >=20 > What makes you say that?
