Python for beginners

I just started learning python last week from this awesome Udemy course!

I'm trying to power through it (already 50% through) so I can start learning about data science applications from Udemy as well.

I got furloughed in March and decided to try and learn to code (again), starting with this free Udemy course: https://www.udemy.com/course/python-core-and-advanced/

I found the instructor's style to be really clear and I just ploughed through all of the basics one after the other (first 50 or so).

Once I was feeling confident I could use lists, dictionaries, for loops and if/else statements (which didn't take long - 4-5 hours maybe) I decided to try and build something myself, which ended up being a really simple app a couple of months later.

I think it depends on your learning style, but although the Udemy course was fantastically clear and helpful, wading through individual and often unrelated lessons was also pretty boring - for me at least!

When I started trying to build something myself, I had to go off and look for solutions to problems as I went (you can Google seemingly any python related question and someone has already asked/answered it!), which along with the foundation I had from the Udemy course worked really well. Plus I was developing something towards an end product I cared about, which helps to rationalise spending 2 hours fiddling with a tiny, irritating problem fairly frequently!

Hope that helps. Good luck with it, I found the whole process challenging but incredibly satisfying.

I'm working through this free course at Udemy.

I'm only about 1/3 of the way through, but I think it's pretty good. It seems to be covering the basics, but I think the "assignments" are a bit inconsequential. I might not be a typical learner, btw (I've been dabbling in computer programming since the 80s, just never Python before now).

I like the programming exercises at https://www.practicepython.org - they give you a bit more to get your teeth into than the udemy assignments. I like the discussion of the problem too.

I..I have English resources. I'm not sure if they'll help.

web dev (ruby on Rails, Git, Command line, javascript? + projects) https://www.theodinproject.com/dashboard \~"structured" resource gathering but also what's there is great too

python course: https://www.udemy.com/course/python-core-and-advanced/

A bunch of languages:

https://www.bitdegree.org/learn/ \~ I've been studying up on html here and it's pretty extensive but there is also info on other languages

https://devdocs.io/ \~this is for a bunch of languages & frameworks/libraries

https://bento.io/tracks

Java: https://java-programming.mooc.fi/

https://www.learncpp.com/ for c++? \~it looks...good?

I was recommended : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide for Javascript by many

This course: https://www.udemy.com/course/the-web-developer-bootcamp/ has very good ratings \~paid on sale about $17 (not on sale $200?) and the author is well known for it \~probably the best value on sale compared to the other ones I've seen on Udemy.

There is also free code camp. That's more challenge based though. It can be a little hard to work around.

I've taken Edx courses that have French subtitles.
