The Python challenge is an online riddle inspired by notpron. The catch is that each level requires you to write some Python code (or Perl, Ruby etc. etc. if you are so inclined) to arrive at the solution. The hardest part is figuring out the cryptic clues. The Python bit is easy; so far, the longest piece of Python I have written to solve a riddle is about 6 lines. (Admittedly, I am still on level 6. But according to the forum posts, none of the challenges require a lot of code)
It's a very challenging but fun way to learn the intricacies of Python, regardless of whether you are a novice or a pro. Give it a try at http://www.pythonchallenge.com.
