    Perhaps this will teach someone to automate Udemy course enrollments :^)

    • senectus on 05/11/2019 - 18:10

      ha, classic. saw this and thought "That looks good, might try that"…

      You purchased this course on June 12, 2019

        I seem to be fine with the enrollments. It's the completion that I'm struggling with…

  • Phoebus on 05/11/2019 - 18:20

    better to use powershell for all that stuff.

    • SydShopCat on 06/11/2019 - 19:22

      Sept. 25, 2015 for me. I still don't know Python.

  • RolandWaites on 05/11/2019 - 19:42

    Description is too vague. What are some things you could automate that have genuine day to day application?

    • afoveht on 05/11/2019 - 20:03

      Clearing the associated checkbox.

    • poboy on 05/11/2019 - 20:21

      Merging CSV files, Organising files, manipulating pdf files, Applying standard changes to a batch of images…

      Python has significant scope. Seriously powerful. But it takes some effort for a non-programmer to learn.

        Hmm. I don't know what any of those words mean. I guess I'm not the target demographic.

    • contact1881 on 06/11/2019 - 12:43

      I've done this course. I'd give it a 3/5 - teaches some basics in python but nothing you'd actually use at work/home to save time.

    I believe the edition 2 content is coming in late Nov.

    Just to remind everyone that the book with the course content is available for free (and free of giving your email address) on:
    https://automatetheboringstuff.com/

    • rokufan on 06/11/2019 - 12:11

      I checked out that page but couldn't find the free option.

      • lambshanks on 06/11/2019 - 13:49

        The chapter links under the table of contents link to the full content online. The ebook and print versions are paid.

        • rokufan on 06/11/2019 - 14:39

          Right you are. I was looking for a PDF download. Thanks anyway.

  • Flop on 07/11/2019 - 22:16

    Are you saying I can automate my learning of Python programming?
