So I finally pulled myself out of a bit of a slump, and spent a (relatively) substantial amount of time learning the Python programming language (for those interested, it is the "Complete Python Course: Beginner to Advanced!" available at http://stackskills.com).
I name it "The Vulgar Calculator"; which is my programming equivalent of learning all the rude words when you first learn a foreign human language.
It is available on a GitHub repository I created to put my learning projects on, aptly named Python_Learnings).I will be (hopefully) uploading more of my projects there as I continue the course- the next project is to create a text RPG, which is actually pretty exciting and right down my alley!
Hopefully I will progress through it.
