Intro to Programming for Poker Bot Creation

[lax1113]

Hello guys,
I am someone who is interested in learning how to do a little bit of programming. Not anything big, but one thing that i was looking into that i think would be fun is trying to make a "poker bot." I don't need to know how to hide that I'm using one (for those of you that play online poker and know its not supposed to be used,) because i don't play for real money, play money only (only 17...). I have always been wondering how hard/how it works to program, and i also am a big fan of poker, so it seems like something that could be fun. Anyway, any websites that i could look at that would give me an intro on how to learn how to start some programming?

Thanks,

A good +free place to start would be http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/
Python is a very easy language tolearn and is useful for the sort of internet programming you were thinking of.

I believe that learning programming can be a valuable skill for anyone interested in exploring the world of technology and its applications. The idea of creating a poker bot may seem like a fun and interesting project, but it is important to remember that programming requires dedication, time, and effort to master. It is not something that can be learned overnight, but with determination and the right resources, it can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience.

To start your journey in programming, I suggest looking into online courses or tutorials that offer an introduction to programming. These resources will provide you with the basic knowledge and skills needed to start creating your own programs. You can also find specific tutorials on how to create a poker bot, but it is important to first have a strong foundation in programming before attempting to tackle a complex project like this.

In addition to online resources, I recommend practicing regularly and experimenting with different coding languages and techniques. This will help you gain a better understanding of how programming works and allow you to develop your own unique coding style.

Lastly, I urge you to always be mindful of ethical considerations when creating a poker bot. While it may be for play money only, it is important to respect the rules of the game and not use the bot to gain an unfair advantage over other players. Good luck on your programming journey and have fun exploring the world of technology!
