Life as a computer programmer

So you want to write computer programs for a living? Is it for the intellectual curiosity? Challenge? Few jobs will keep you constantly motiviated and intellectually challenged than a thinker's job. Writing's fun and challenging as well, but writing software in today's world is actually very difficult.

So, I'm trying to learn python. Yep, an interesting name for a programming language which I understand comes from the Monty Python series and not the slithering reptile. Until I started doing work in Linux, I didn't know how hugely popular this programming language was. Most of my life being spent in C/C++ code, and now PHP, you become quite arrogant and think that there's nothing else out there to compare with.

But python's quite popular. There are volumes on the subject and some major applications written entirely in python. So in the next few weeks, I'm going to post some python tutorials. Not the typical Hello World! stuff, but some good material.

See you around.
