Python

[0]

Hello,
I was wanting to learn more about the language "Python." What would be the best way of doing so?

I highly recommend starting with codeacademy... You can do a free 7 day trial and learn the basics on one weekend. Its really smart the way their tuts work... Let me know your thoughts...

I think @qaqaface is right and we can do a 7 day free trial without credit card on codeacademy, that's really good and I think Colt Steele's Modern python 3 bootcamp is also good.

Hi, I'm sorry for necromancy but I just wanted to share my knowledge about this. While I'm not an expert python programmer yet, I've vastly improved my skill and knowledge of the language within less than a couple of weeks (however, I do have a certain programming experience and I consider myself a "techie" so your results may vary). This website is one of the best places to start learning python: https://automatetheboringstuff.com/. There is also an e-book version of it, which I'm sure you can easily find online. Aside from that, the author also has other books and tutorials related to python and I highly recommend checking out his other works.

The site I mentioned above lets you get started really fast and it'll allow you to actually create small programs as soon as possible that you can actually use for your own needs (like renaming files, creating alarms, etc.) so you'll easily see results very early on. This will allow you to easily get a sense of achievement in a way that you are actually writing code that actually do stuff for you rather than writing codes to demonstrate theory and stuff.

A good way to learn coding in general is making projects that helps your life. Something like an automated coffee python script ;)

read the python doc https://www.python.org/about/gettingstarted/, trying some exercise, if you need help read stackoverflow.com
