Helpful Tools
- Graphical debugger can be found here
- You can use repl or CodeBunk if you want to code online, but make sure to save your code someplace else
- CodeAcademy
is a great tool for learning Python, a little bit at a time. Unfortunately,
it's only offered in Python 2. The main differences should be visible if you run
the following code:
print("Hello", "World!") print("Is this a float or an int?", 4/5) - If you want something in Python 3 and don't mind paying a little bit of money, you can also try using Grok.
