You’re not a programmer quite yet. I like to think of this book as giving you your “programming black belt.” You know enough to start another book on programming and handle it just fine.

• Learn Ruby The Hard Way (https://learnrubythehardway.org): You will learn even more about programming as you learn more programming languages, so try learning Ruby, too.

• The Django Tutorial (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/intro/): Build a web application with the Django web framework.

• SciPy ...
