• Checkio, Codingame, Codecombat — gaming based challenges

Projects:

Find something that’d help to solve a real world problem for you. For example, I’m on Linux and use the terminal for many things. I wanted a cli tool to do simple calculations. There’s bc command, but it doesn’t accept direct string and you need to set scale and so on. So, I looked up how to write a cli in Python (I went with built-in argparse module) and made a tool that’d solve my small use case.
