A good foundation in general programming never goes amiss. It sounds like you have found a resource that works for you so stick with it. If you have specific questions or things you want more detail about feel free to ask here. As to 2D games you can try PyGame. Things like face recognition are highly complex and specialised techniques, but there are some libraries around that do the hard stuff for you so provided you want to play with face recognition rather than develop your own recognition algorithms from scratch you should e fine. But these libraries will assume you are already competent in general programming. So in summary, continue with your book. Ask for extra information here. Consider a general purpose tutorial too (there are lots listed on the Python web sitre, including mine(see below). Then try pyGame - there are tutorials and a support forum. Finally for the 2D/physics stuff there are other libraries you can try like pymunk and cgkit. In fact there's a dedicated page on the wiki: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonGameLibraries Enjoy, -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
