<h2 id=divingin>Diving in</h2>
<p class=f>Books about programming usually start with a bunch of boring chapters about fundamentals and eventually work up to building something useful. Let's skip all that. Here is a complete, working Python program. It probably makes absolutely no sense to you. Don't worry about that, because you're going to dissect it line by line. But read through it first and see what, if anything, you can make of it.
<p id=noscript>[The code examples will be easier to follow if you enable Javascript, but whatever.]
