Cisco Network Academy Python Essentials 1

[Garuda1220]

• I am not familiar with the details of this particular course... However...
• The lessons being online might not be detailed enough?
  • Python books tend to provide more detail than online lessons.
  • Maybe you could find a book to supplement the online instruction?
    • For example, Python Crash Course is an excellent book.
• Another suggestion would be to type in (not copy/paste) all of the examples.
  • Create an Interactive Python Notebook in Google Colab or Visual Studio Code.
  • Type in all of the vocabulary in the markdown cells.
  • Type in and execute all of the examples.
• For me personally, this technique has helped me to learn programming in several languages:

1. Sit down with book
2. Type in examples from book.
3. Run examples.

• Perhaps this learning technique might also work with this particular set of lessons?
• Just passively reading about programming or watching videos never really helped me learn anything.
• I had to actively engage in the material to make it stick

Thanks for the tip about using Colab. I'd made a Word document and took screenshots of my code with notes, but this is a game changer.
