Just started lecture 1. Figured this would be a good lead-in to the other class, but I didn't want to clutter the other thread w/ this stuff.

If anyone else is interested, here's the link:

There are weekly python programming assignments, so I figure we can collaborate on the assignments.

Either YOU can do it, or you can't.

And if you can't, why are you wasting your time with a course you are doing by choice?

Want to have a bullshite conversational talking point about what "you" can do?

I mean there is nothing wrong with asking for help...but for something like this where you walk into it with a general "collaborative" call instead of a round table where specific questions are asked...

From my perspective, does the money board really need three programming threads? Doc's thread was specifically about what he should study if he wanted to bring value in finance through programming. I think having a study thread for the board to collaborate on in learning programming is acceptable, but we don't need to clutter the MT with programming threads.

Outside of learning Python, what is your goal with this Intro to computer science class? Are you getting a job out of it? Are you building algorithms to buy and sell stock?
