Question

Welcoming in the new sequence - You may have noticed we are gearing up for a second offering of the MechMOOC Python course. We are welcoming learners registered for that cycle onto the OpenStudy site this week, so please help them to get up to speed. Also, if you were in the first sequence and dropped back to the second, it would be great to know. Mention it here or e-mail mooc-e@p2pu.org

Answer 1

It is great to be here. Thanks for all the work going into this (even before we have started).

Answer 2

I really appreciate this! I had Python for like 3 months and wrote a simple converter program. But i had lost hope thinking there would be no one interested out there. Now that I've got these courses here, I think I'll be making progress!
Thanks to whoever started this thing!!!

Answer 3

Was the course supposed to start today?

Answer 4

It is starting today. You should have received e-mails. Let us know if you haven't.

Answer 7

Answer 8

Hi guys - i'm confused already! Does it matter what version of Python we download? I've done the Code Academy stuff, want to start on 6.189 stuff now.

Answer 9

You should download 2.6 or 2.7. Either should be fine. Instructions for doing so are found here http://mechanicalmooc.wordpress.com/2012/11/19/a-week-to-go-mmooc-seq26nov12/
