[h4t]

I taught myself python by converting ruby programs using ruby syntax, coding styles, libraries etc. I just used the pick-axe book as a reference and converted code examples from any interesting and/or useful/relevant python source I could get my hands on at the time. (circa 2008?) So this actually makes sense to me learning 2 languages at once as long as you understand what you are doing with them to begin with. I would not recommend it to a beginner though. Interesting though. See it through and complete it. I'll check back.
