Rosalind has put together what I think is the best introduction to Python I've seen on the internet. They tell you just enough to get started with Rosalind and Euler without overwhelming you.<br><br>Happy holidays!<br><br>Jackson Bates<br>Waverley Christian College<br><br>________________________________<br><br><br>------------------------------------------<br>DISCLAIMER: This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
