How to Code 2.0: Pushing Your Skills Further with Python: Learn how to code with Python in 10 Easy Lessons (Super Skills)

Great and easy tool to learn and teach students how to code in Python.

My daughter picked the book up, grabbed a computer, and started typing and experimenting with python in just minutes. I like the format of the book in how it shows python can be used in many use cases.

We had to stop at page 26 because we couldn’t get the coding exercises to execute. The book says it works off of python 3.5.2, but I couldn’t figure out how to download that specific version. The python website has the newest version, 3.6.I gave it two stars because my child and I are new to coding, so it was good to at least learn there is a language called python and to see how to works. We got some things to work, but then other exercises like drawing four squares and defining multiple functions with the fashion design exercise didn’t work at all.In case it matters, I have a new windows HP laptop. Maybe another reviewer can come along and explain how to get version 3.2.5, so this book isn’t worthless. Or maybe someone more computer coding savvy can explain where I’m going wrong.But until then, I’d say think before getting this particular book because so far, we can’t use it to it’s full capacity.The first book in this series about scratch worked fine.

Good book

I tried the version that the book uses and the newest version and couldn't get most of the exercises to work. Very frustrating for my students. It seems the author makes some assumptions and leaves out steps that she probably takes for granted but makes a rookie stumble and become frustrated.
