This is important. One of the most successful parts of my computer education was early on (the second year I'd programmed a computer) learning a language a week for the summer. Tough course, but after that, a new language didn't (and doesn't) scare me, as it does most mono-lingual students. I feel I got a much better idea of what, in general, programming was from learning wildly disparate languages. --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
