Dear friend,

Hi Gabriel,

No, you don’t.
IMHO, sometime it’s hard to get started because GRASS (and many other open source softwares) has some different logic from the common “point and click software”.
Soon you will realize that the command structure allows you to spare a lot of time in repetitive tasks and allow to create reproducible and solid procedures.

Maybe you can tell yours major difficulties, so we can help in details?

Hi Gabriel,

As others have said, no knowledge of python is needed to use grass. I
noticed you are from USP. I know there are some people in the São
Paulo campus that uses grass. Also, there are people in Piracicaba
campus or, if you ever come by Campinas, send me an email and I'd
gladly show you around grass

Cheers
Daniel
