Learn. Practise. Build. | tutorsyntax.com

This is an OPTIONAL resource pack. Every worked example is printed in the book.
The 10 chapter packs include three tutorial programs, one guided project, and
one independent-project model solution per chapter. Try your own solution first.
Bonus Chapter 11 contains three worked examples and the model guessing game.
Final Challenges A–F are blank starter templates, not finished solutions.

Getting started
1. Unzip the download on your computer.
2. Open a .py file in Mu, IDLE or another Python 3 editor.
3. Run it. Some scripts ask you to type text or numbers.
4. Predict what will happen, then change one thing and test again.

Use standard Python 3. No third-party packages or accounts are required.
