Has anyone seen a tutorial like ruby-warrior for python? In particular I like that you actually build scripts as you go, as opposed to hanging out in the interactive interpreter and running snippets.

I recently completed a fairly advanced node tutorial which involved essentially writing modules that would permit the textbook to run to completion. I found this satisfying and a compelling way to teach the technology. I was hoping to find something similar for a beginner.

Is there a name for this kind of tutorial?

+1 for ruby-warrior. As far as the question goes, all I can think is python-koans github.com/gregmalcolm/python_koans comes little close to the one you described - although it's more like "make-this-script-pass" kinda tutorial and may be similar to ruby-koans than ruby-warrior. I am waiting to see if anyone answers this question. :) – Forbidden Overseer Mar 23 at 23:17
