The OO features are also very powerful. Everything from categories to selectors to protocols are cool concepts. I will post about these features in future posts. The part that annoyed people the most is how you invoke and define methods, but this grows on you as you program.

I wrote a post about documenting my learning adventure, but I now take it back. There will be too many assumptions I would have to make to explain everything. Also, there is simply to much to the language to post about. Instead I will start a simple project to get as much development time with the language as I can. This is the project that I will post about. Using the example, I will post about some important concepts of Objective-C.

I have decided to make tic-tac-toe. I will purposely try to use as many features of the languages as I can. So stay tuned until the next post. Also if anyone has questions concerning the language, let me know I would love to hunt down the answer, it helps me learn

I picked up Python over night just by going to the Python Home page and following their tutorials. The documentation is excellent, so if you can read, I assume you can, then you should be good to go. The tutorial I follow is located at http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html.

Python can be used for many things a popular usage for this scripting language is developing with Game engines, or 3D modeling software packages like Blender.  Once you have gone through the tutorials, I recommend you get this pocket reference book below. It proves to be very useful, because there are so many libraries, and a quick look up can make life a lot easier.

I started learning Python when I was an undergrad to develop some code for a summer research position I had. My job was to develop an API to integrate a huge virtual environment with a 3D game engine called Panda3D. The API was called HIVE (Huge Immersive Virtual Environment). If you have any questions about Python or done anything cool with the language just leave a comment and let me know
