Nope. As I said I have on basic knowledge of variables, string int method. That is all. But it does not seem hard!

Honest aren't we? Thats a great starting point.

UPDATE:
I have started the bot. The first step is to login to Instagram via the websta.me website. And i already have my first roadblock. This is literally my first time writing code! Anyways what i have so far but im getting error! If anyone can help me it would appreciable, otherwise lol im going to have to use like stackoverflow for help.

The code so far to login to instagram using websta.me token and to save the info into a cookie so it stays logged in

But im getting an error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Python34/Url.py", line 26, in <module>
resp = urllib.request.urlopen (req)
File "C:\Python34\lib\urllib\request.py", line 161, in urlopen

I'm also making a bot, a little bit more advance than that to manage all my accounts by myself. Using java not python though!

Phython

Oh, comeon OP, you don't even know that it's 'Python', not Phython. Also, an intro level of course doesn't even includes you learning the basics properly, I've seen a lot of junk coming out of the follow my instruction courses, while a fraction does really understands what they are doing.

In case, if you wish to follow the dream:
1. Understand how web requests are made, you may need to optimize these.
2. Learn a framework
3. Learn more algorithms, you will be needing to scrap content, use NLP (preferable to make a good quality bot) and optimize your code complexity.

Good luck, if you need some source codes I played a while with the API.
Also have some bots I made for web navigation.
