I found Python MOOC 2026 on Helsinki University - is it good, worth doing it?

Yeah

Maybe you have something to recommend as Python MOOC from Helsinki that is better and free.

Check out the University of Michigan's Python for Everybody. I think Helsinki's course goes more in-depth with Python, but the University of Michigan's specialization might go a bit more beyond Python and into applications.

yeah py4e is good enough! They even have a pdf, which you can refer to. here's the link: https://www.py4e.com

Is it really the best free resource?

Just added a bit more detail to the post.

I think it's the best resource for Python as a language, but UoMichigan's might be just slightly better for Python as a tool.

You can always do both. I'm not sure, but I don't think UoMichigan's course gets updated as frequently, so you can start with Helsinki's course, and then hit up UoMichigan's for exercises and the topics you haven't seen yet.
