I have a basic (?) knowledge of C and Java. I've done some project in the early semesters of my undergraduation with it, but programming was always kind of a scary place to me as I never felt that creative or a person that had quick thinking, so I built a wall around it and made the best I could to keep distance of it. But I've been looking to lose some irrational fears (or at least see if this is really not my thing). I plan to play a little with the automation of my bedroom. Simple things at first, really just a thing to get me engaged (And maybe add another language in my resume ). My friend suggested to use Python! I heard of it, but never used it.

People who used/use/know somethina about Python, what do you suggest to newbie such as me? I think Arduino doesn't use Pyton, but maybe I can find a library to use Python with it. Or buy a PI?

I looked into some websites but I don't know, some start talking about the history of programming....I just want some help to start it. lol
