I would not say that I was shocked. I have seen the same errors many 
other places. Even in professional work. You just had many of them 
collected in a short piece of code ;-)

That is great. Python is great fun. I wish it was around when I was a 
kid. I guess you will enjoy it even more than VB.

You can just ask here, and you will most likely get help.

What you did, writing a piece of code and then asking for comments, is 
probably the best way to get help. It is much easier to help with 
something concrete than a more general question.

And though you might not think of it as such, my critiscism of your code 
was an attempt to help you.

For a beginning 11 year old programmer your code was actually very good!
