Thank you for joining us! We hope this is just the beginning.
So now what? We'd like to help you continue to learn and create with code.
Here we have the activity content and resources from the workshop you attended, as well as some take-home "going beyond" activities and reccommendations of where to go next!
Python
Python is an awesome programming language, especially for beginners! You've already done a couple projects in this language, but there is a lot more to learn! We recommend taking a look at the learnpython website!
Python Caesar Cipher
A Caesar Cipher is something that Julius Caesar used to send secret messages to his troops when he didn’t want the wrong people to be able to read his messages. He encoded the messages by shifting the alphabet by a specific number of letters, or key, and only gave the special key to the person who he wanted to be able to read the message. You can build your own cipher encrypter using code!

Once you have a Caesar Cipher working, try designing your own secret code!
