Hey everyone,

I'm building **The Python Ledger** — a free, interactive platform for learning Python from the ground up. It's built with Docusaurus and a custom in-browser code execution system (React + Skulpt), so people can write and run real Python right in the lesson, with instant feedback instead of just reading theory.

The curriculum is structured as:

- **Introduction** - how to use the platform / how to learn

- **Prerequisites** - software requirements, code editors, command line, CS concepts

- **Git Basics** - a short, beginner-friendly intro to Git

- **Python Foundations** - variables, data types, functions, OOP, file I/O, etc.

- Optional specialized tracks later (web dev, GUI dev, automation...)

Right now I'm heads-down on the Foundations course and a companion **practice-exercises repo** (folder-per-exercise, `pytest`-based, progressively unlocked tests, beginner-friendly failure messages instead of raw tracebacks; think *The Odin Project*'s exercises repo, but for Python).

It's a lot of ground to cover solo, and it's eating all my free time; so I'm looking for people to collaborate with. Some areas I could genuinely use help in:

- **Content/curriculum writing** - explaining CS & Python concepts clearly for total beginners

- **Python devs** – building out exercises, test fixtures, and the practice repo

- **Reviewers/beta testers** - going through lessons as a "new learner" and flagging confusing bits

No huge time commitment expected; even reviewing a lesson or writing one exercise helps. The project is fully open source and contributions are more then welcome in any way possible.

If any of this sounds interesting, drop a comment or DM me and I'll get you set up.

Thank you for reading.

Ik python basics and all basic syntax so what would be the next thing to learn?
Can recommend and yt vid(cs50p full beginner so no)
Im trying freecodecamp yt videos are there any other videos u would recommend?
Also im interested in web dev so help me out with this as well or should i try out a different language?

I'm building a sort of turn-based RPG in the terminal as a practice project, and I need to generate a random number within a specific range. I tried using `randint` (by importing `random`), but I also want to assign probabilities so that, depending on certain factors, one number is more likely to be generated than another. For example, if an enemy has low health, it should be more likely to generate the number 1, which causes the enemy to heal.

I installed the exifread library using pip as well as conda. In Anaconda Navigator it shows as installed. Using a terminal window I type in:

pip3 show exifread

and it returns

/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.13/site-packages

I use Spyder (I know, I know: use pycharm or vscode...) I cannot import the module. I get the dreaded

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘exifread’

I recently installed pillow and I can import it just fine with import PIL. Using pip3 show pillow it is the same directory as exifread

What am I missing here?

I always has a doubt after installing python software. When I open the Python folder, I see other folders with names like DLLs, Doc, etc, Include, Lib, Libs, Scripts, Share, Tcl, and Tools. Can anyone explain what these folders are, what they're for, and what the .pyd extension means?
