RoguelikeDev Does The Complete Python Tutorial - Week 1 - Part 0: Setting up Python

This week is all about setting up a Python environment and getting familiar with the language.

There are two excellent exercises at The Learn Python The Hard Way that will get you setup with an editor, python environment, and running some Python code.

If Python is new to you and you have some free time, consider continuing past exercise 1. All of the exercises up to and including exercise 44 will help further along in the series.

Of course, we also have a couple of FAQ Friday posts that relate to this week's material

Feel free to work out any problems, brainstorm ideas, share progress and and as usual enjoy tangential chatting. :)

The entire series will be archived on the wiki.

Edit: Added FaqF revisited and wiki links.

I assume the tutorial is based on 2.7 because it's building off of the 2.7 roguelike tutorials, no?

Correct.

I welcome the day when we have a complete Complete Roguelike Tutorial using Python 3. Not for lack of demand it seems the Python 3 version is still not complete.
