From the article: "For example, exercise 37: symbol review. There’s nearly 100 different symbols to look at and the exercise suggests “Spend about a week on this, but if you finish faster that’s great.” – too much, too long."

From the exercise itself: "Finally, use each of these in a small Python program, or as many as you can get done. The key here is to find out what the symbol does, make sure you got it right, correct it if you do not, then use it to lock it in."

The conclusion in the article: "For me, the easiest and most pragmatic way to learn Python is not by reading through pages of reference documentation and syntax, but to just start coding."

Amazing quote from the XML rant linked in the article:
