Python Koans
Today's discovery is Python Koans. According to python-guide.org, Koans "uses a test-driven approach, q.v. TEST DRIVEN DESIGN SECTION to provide an interactive tutorial teaching basic Python concepts. By fixing assertion statements that fail in a test script, this provides sequential steps to learning Python."
I was also curious what a "Koan" actually is: "a paradox to be meditated upon that is used to train Zen Buddhist monks to abandon ultimate dependence on reason and to force them into gaining sudden intuitive enlightenment" - Merriam-Webster
Koans takes a little work to install. Pygorithm is a similar package for learning advanced more algorithm theories with python, and can be more easily installed by pip.
