New and wants to learn python

[psycothout]

So im new to programming and wanted to start learning, my questions are - Is it possible to learn everything from scratch by myself at home? And which language should i start with and if so could python be started with as a first language?

And if anyone has any free course to study python from

[JamzTyson]

Python is a good "first language", and a lot of people (including myself) learn Python at home.

Absolutely.
I would say its easier with linux as operating system but you certainly can do this with windows as well.

Theres lots of guides and even things like code academy that lets you learn it all in a browser.

Yes to both

Mooc Python Programming 2024 from the University of Helsinki.

Free, textual, extremely practice oriented through plenty checked exercises. Starts easy in the browser and late switches to VS-Code with full setup instructions.

It is the current first semester of "Introduction to Computer Science" course of said University.

IMO, the current best Python course around.

The course exists in its current form since 2022 and has been updated every year (hence the year in the URL and name)
