• Ask HN: Why don't smartphones encourage programming like early 80s computers?

  There are a few Python environments for iOS, and I'm sure Android also has some. Pythonista is probably one of the better ones. http://omz-software.com/pythonista/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Remote development on a mobile device

  Haven't tried it, but there's Pythonista. You can also use a remote terminal like blink shell and ssh into a tmux session. I also haven't tried this, either. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Where can i test my knowledge?

  When I was first learning python I like using https://checkio.org/ Checkio provides programming problems in a gamified environment. After you have solved a problem you can see how others have solved the problem. This really accelerated my learning. Source: about 1 year ago

  Look at checkio.org. Range of problems to solve ('missions') When you do you can see how others solved them too which ids very instructive. Source: about 1 year ago
