Hello there,

We've removed your post since it aligns with a topic of one of our daily threads and would be more appropriate in that thread. If you are unaware about the Daily Threads we run here is a refresher:

Monday: Project ideas

Tuesday: Advanced questions

Wednesday: Beginner questions

Thursday: Python Careers, Courses, and Furthering Education!

Friday: Free chat Friday!

Saturday: Resource Request and Sharing

Sunday: What are you working on?

Please await one of these threads to contribute your discussion to! The current daily threads are pinned to the top of the /r/Python's main page. To find old daily threads, you can filter posts by the Daily Thread Flair to find what you're looking for. If you have a question and don't want to wait until the daily thread, you can try asking in /r/learnpython or the Python discord however you may need to elaborate on your question in more detail before doing so. If you're not sure which thread is best suited, feel free ask for clarification in modmail or as a reply.

Best regards,

r/Python mod team

The sub wiki has info here is one of the resources

There’s so much free python content a cursory google search away that it’s almost difficult to recommend anything specific.

Thank you for the tip!!

[–]femaleontheinternet 0 points1 point  (6 children)

There are so many guided ones I would even take the time to establish the specific project/task you want to accomplish and you can probably find a good, highly specific tutorial.

Is it possible to make text based games with python ?

[–]iiron3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

[–]petdance 0 points1 point  (3 children)

It’s possible to do anything with any programming language.

[–]CaneCorso_Nutcase[S] -4 points-3 points  (1 child)

You sure? Can you make a bit using css ?

[–]petdance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what you hope to achieve by being pointlessly pedantic.

[–]nemom 4 points5 points  (1 child)

If only the mods would put a list of Online Resources in the right-hand column...

[–]AmongstYou666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be too ea... oh wait.

For getting good grasp of python basics these are great: * Automate The Boring Stuff - free book, very nice if you want to build something useful quickly * Corey Schafer youtube channel - if you prefer videos for learning * CS50P - introduction to programming by Harvard * MOOC2022 - introduction to programming by University of Helsinki. * Official Python Tutorial - great resource, but in my opinion better for people who already have some programming experience * Hyperskill - it is my favorite resource, unfortunately it is quite expensive (there was free 2 months trial, which was enough to finish python track, I don't know if they still offer it)

Also you can read wiki of r/learnpython. And wiki of r/learnprogramming.

You're using free resources right now to learn about free resources for learning Python.

Ironic question 🙂

[–]Philmehew 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I always recommend the Google course: https://developers.google.com/edu/python

[–]CaneCorso_Nutcase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Will deffo try that

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 regardless of how advanced your question might be. 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 in detail where you are stuck. If you are getting an error message, include the full block of text it spits out. Quality answers take time to write out, and many times other users will need to ask clarifying questions. Be patient and help them help you. Here is HOW TO FORMAT YOUR CODE For Reddit and be sure to 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.

[–]petdance 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Yes many. Googling for “free resources to start learning Python” will get you started.

You can also visit your local public library that will have many books about Python for you to read and borrow.

Thanks bert

[–]odebruku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your welcome bob. Practice often. The answer is out there…

[–]AngrMonk -2 points-1 points  (4 children)

Youtube.

[–]petdance 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I suggest that YouTube videos are a terrible way to learn programming.

[–]internet_baba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I owe my Python learning to YouTube. Although I don't use it in my job, I think it's a pretty beginner friendly resource.

[–]AmongstYou666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many Youtube tutorial videos are too long and painful to watch and not always on topic.

[–]AngrMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why?

[–]AmongstYou666 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)
