Up one level
Weekly Python skill building exercises. (KEF -- changed name to force it not to be first in the directory. This may annoy someone enough to turn on the thing that makes the order the same order that they are in the Contents folder)
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #1: Squares, 17 July 2006
This is the first Python Challenge. It starts easy, but has some bonuses that may make you think (and do some research!)
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #2: The Missing Ternary Operator, 24 July 2006
Find some of the ways to approximate the ternary operator in Python. This used to be a major pastime in the Python world, and still applies to us.
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #3: Encoding, 31 July 2006
I've played with this as a Python Challenge one before, but it's still a good exercise.
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #4: Flattening, 7 Aug 2006
A real world problem!
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #5: Monkey Business
This exercise depends on a simple but unusual technique.
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #6: Pyramid
A classic programming contest challenge. Everyone should try this one.
Tuesday Python Challenge Challenge #7: Take a REST
