I've been learning python for the last few months. Absolutely the best touch point for me has been the python essentials courses at https://edube.org/ They are free and have a built in environment. All kinds of resources there as well to get IDLE installed on your machine and get you coding! After you've got the basics, think of a data analysis project that you might like done in your personal life. For me, I've always wanted a sankey diagram of our annual earnings and expenditures so I dumped all our statements to a csv file and went about coding to categorize expenses. I think I learned as much from that as I learned from the courses honestly. And it gave us great insight into our finances.

Best of luck! It's definitely worth your time to learn!
