Logo. ๐Ÿข

Yeah, not really a programmer. Logo and Basic were pretty much the extent of my learning as a kid back in the early 80's. Wouldn't mind getting into python if I had some spare time. Keep coming across stuff where being able to do python scripting would be useful.

If you ever get the craving, check out Automate the Boring Stuff With Python It's a great book that focuses on how to Get Things Done.

You won't learn theory or how to build the next ML sensation here, but you will learn how to make your computer work for you.

as a bonus, python also ships with a logo-like standard library :))) https://docs.python.org/3/library/turtle.html

Logo is the GOAT.
