Recommend spending some time looking at the tools being used.

In this case, very useful for understanding how Python/the computer 
works, and thus, debugging.

However, it is a subject of debate amongst tutors and trainers (and book 
authors), because learning Python requires cognitive effort and learning 
about tools even more on top of that. Concerns about over-load! However, 
of equal weight concerns when proving one's Python-learning by coding 
leads to frustration, eg "What do I do wrong?".


Regardless, well done!
