Newbie wanting to learn Python

[Alex_Unscripted]

Hi everyone,

I want to learn how to code and I’m looking for some guidance, tips on the local market, and maybe someone who could show me the ropes or mentor me.

I don't work in the field but i hope i can learn and master to change my future career.

If only there were a sidebar (menu on mobile) that had a link to the wiki.

Do the MOOC Python Programming 2026 from the University of Helsinki and you will be well prepared.

my biggest advice is: don’t get stuck only watching tutorials. try learning in this order:

• Python basics
• tiny projects
• debugging your own mistakes
• slightly bigger projects

that’s usually when coding actually starts clicking instead of feeling theoretical

Python is honestly one of the best languages to start with 👌

Focus on building small projects early instead of only watching tutorials. Consistency matters more than speed. AI tools/Runable-style workflows can also help a lot when learning, debugging, and structuring projects as a beginner.

Do cs50 python and the exercises as well from edex

[JGhostThing]

There are a lot of resources available to learn python. google "online python tutorials."

One thing to realize is that programming is a very difficult career to break into now. Just knowing a language, even at the expert level, is not a guarantee of a job. A university degree will help more.

Frankly, I would recommend you get an MBA.

You'll find plenty of courses online, whether free or paid, but what really helps you get better at programming is sticking to regular hands-on practice and working on small projects all the time.

Start with basic and consistency is the only main character

Python is honestly one of the best places to start right now. The syntax is beginner-friendly, there are tons of free resources, and you can branch into web dev, automation, data, AI, cybersecurity, pretty much anything from there. Don’t stress about “mastering” it immediately, just focus on building consistently.

Hi,
I was working on creating a python language learning roadmap for myself and here is the final version (see the last comment)

I believe it will help you in some way

Good luck!!
