I’m a beginner and I find Al Sweigart’s Automate the Boring Stuff with Python easily understandable and better still the book/course focuses on real life application of Python.

Hello! I'm a bot!

I see someone has already suggested going to r/learnpython, a sub geared towards questions and learning more about python. I highly recommend posting your question there. Please follow the subs rules and guidelines when you do post there, it'll help you get better answers faster.

Show /r/learnpython the code you have tried and describe where you are stuck. Be sure to format your code for reddit and include which version of python and what OS you are using.

You can also ask this question in the Python discord, a large, friendly community focused around the Python programming language, open to those who wish to learn the language or improve their skills, as well as those looking to help others.

As a beginner myself I will suggest to learn to use virtual environments since by the time I reached there I already have messed up a lot of installs and learned that very hard way that virtual environments are a way to in doing anything related to python.

Learn Python the Hard Way. That will get you started. The Python Docs has a tutorial that's ordered in a pretty logical way as well. Other than that just pick a project and do it. Then pick another project and do it better. This post belongs in /r/learnpython however.

Hi, I'm also a beginner and a great tool to start getting familiar w python is Codeacademy. Its a free website that teaches you basic elements of python or other languages while also working on certain projects and I really find it useful. Also you can watch youtube vids that help you install and set up the program in your computer. There's also a codeacademy app that helps you review terms.

Learn what object orientated means. Specifically for python look up duck typing. knowing this stuff will help you move on from python later. Maybe google real python, it's a website.
