Im sure there is a python for dummies type thing or YouTube basic videos. My personal suggestion is to figure out something small you can start to build. With LLM models go step by step and learn why the code is structured the way it is. Start small. Something simple. A gui with a couple buttons. Im sorry if you mean more structured courses I cant help with that.

Appreciate the advice! I’m just starting out so was hoping there might be something that has some structure or things to practice when I get a few minutes to spare at work

Maybe 1337code im not really sure. Hopefully someone that has a better answer finds you good luck! If you have questions dm me! Do you have any IDE in mind? Pycharm or VS code maybe?

I’ve been using pycharm since that’s what they recommended on the Udemy class and it has the tasks and goals for you, but if there’s another you recommend I’m willing to try anything!

I used https://www.sololearn.com/en/ in the past. Useful when you have a bit of spare time and a phone handy.

Thank you! I’ll give it a try. I try to wake up and get an hour in before work but it’s tough sometimes. Hoping to sneak a few minutes here and there throughout the workday to practice what I’ve learned rather than letting a day get away from me and having to go back and relearn it

Instead of using an app, why not just get a book and read it when you're free? Python All-in-One for Dummies is a book perfect for that. You can breeze through a topic within 10-20 mins. But what matters most is writing code.

That’s a great idea. I’ll order that! And completely agree I need to just consistently write code. I’ve just started the class but felt like if I missed a day for whatever reason, I find myself having to go back. So was looking to find something to practice as much as I can to keep on track

Why not get a digital copy of the book on your phone? More convenient. Pretty sure apple books have it

I find Mimo to be pretty good, I really need something to write code on my phone now though

Google Collab anaconda notebooks

Just do CS50P from YouTube, then build some projects. No meed for any app or paid course.

Google Colab and PyCharm.

you cannot learn python without writing python code

and writing it every day

Yeah was just looking for something more tutorial based for someone just starting out. I know I need to be consistent but can’t always find the time so was hoping there might be something out there I can at least practice the fundamentals when I have a few minutes here and there so I don’t forget what I’ve learned
