Well I am learning Python and I think the best way to learn is make programs which are away from the tutorials just something different to the examples. Because I personally think creating something from scratch and researching about it is the best way, but I don't have any idea's on what to code apart from the basic's but I would like some suggestions to act upon.I just want to have some ideas to adapt and then create something new for me, mind since I am starting python it is all quiet new.

Thanks

I am in a similar situation, and just wrote a program that encrypts/decrypts text files using the Vigenere Cipher ( http://www.hak5.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=16586 ). Why not write a program that cracks my cipher?

Do both. Follow tutorials and code to learn. I just coded to learn and I found my code sometimes awful because I didn't know more efficient ways of doing it (because I already knew away). Or when I started to learn OOP that was a beast.

Would you say learning OOP in Python really helped with learning the Basics of python or would you say get to grips with python before moving into OOP?

It wasn't either, it was wanting to program a GUI, but all of them used Object Orientation. I was going through a podcast called Python411 and one was on OOP, as I listened to that, OOP finally clicked and how it all came together and worked.

Oh nice. Well I have done a lot of OOP programming back in the past. But At the moment I'm trying to make a a decryption for sable but going 1 step forward and 2 steps back -.-
