[Edu-sig] python for kids...

[Jason R Briggs]

Hi all

Don't know if anyone on this list has been watching my feed, but I've 
made a bunch of updates to "Snake Wrangling For Kids" (partly caused by 
converting it to LaTeX).  Anyway, the latest version fixes a bunch of 
problems I've noticed (such as referring to functions before explaining 
what functions were... sigh), and finally starts adding a few basic 
exercises at the end of some of the chapters (which was suggested about 
a month or so ago, I seem to recall).

In regard to the exercises, has anyone got any other suggestions for the 
"Things to try" sections?  Obviously given the context of the chapters.  
Code snippets gratefully received (and will be attributed in the 
preamble if used).

As before, the latest download can be found here:

The LaTeX version is also a good deal smaller than the previous Word 
Processor version (plus adds a nicer ToC and index).  Hope you like it.

Regards, and thanks again for prior advice,
Jason
