[Baypiggies] Python course for non-programmer

[Mike Cheponis]

Wesley,

I think one of the first things you may want to do, before you try to teach people anything, is to locate your "Shift" key.

It's usually the key just to the left of the "Z" key.  On my keyboard, there is also one to the right of the "/" key, giving me two opportunities to locate it.

Good luck!   ;-)

After you've found it, I'll be happy to suggest ways to use the "Shift" key(s) to improve your writing's legibility and conformance to English capitalization rules.

Can't hurt...

Best!

-Mike
