     I agree with others that we could use more of the screen space.
May be because I have already tried Ruby Monks a while back, I don't
find it that bad.

     I haven't gone through the entire book. But it would be nice to
have idiomatic programming intorduced as well. I find people(beginners
mostly, but others as well) looping through lists the "C-way" .i.e

for i in range(len(list)):
    print list[i]

style of programming. It would be nice to teach idomatic python, right
from the beginning. Thanks
