I wish these videos weren’t private. I was just recalling how much they meant to me and wanted to share them.
I wish you the best Al, you really touched me all those years back.

Comment on Python is the new BASIC. by Jc Carnelian

I always thought of Python being the new BASIC. But also in a modern way. In BASIC you often been pretty limited. You could write more sophisticated programs with basic, even lets say a Spreadsheet program, calculate and even draw math stuff (even with very limited computers such as ZX80, where you still could draw a sine with “*” characters or similar) and so on. But still many didn’t see BASIC as a “real” language, a serious one however given the fact with a computer like ZX80 you often basically just had two options: BASIC or machinecode, even if you had to write machinecode using PEEK and POKE in BASIC, it was often the only access to computer programming we had back then.

Today Python is easy accessible, simple to learn but also is more modern.
You can write some quite sophisticated apps with Python or even use it for system automatication and hacking. You have with Python less limits than with BASIC back then.

If I’d kids that I wanted to introduce into computer stuff, today I’d give them a Raspi and Python to write their own first games with it.

@Chris:

You can execute command line instructions using the call function of the subprocess module:

Ex:

from subprocess import call

call(‘mymp3player’, ‘-f secret_voice.mp3’)
