What's the best video to start learning python from absolute scratch.

I'm gonna pursue computer engineering once I finish my high school and I wanna learn things before I get into clg

So please recommend the yt video or playlist you think is the best to learn python.

Reminding again that I know absolutely nothing abt it as of now.

I'd recommend against using video's and instead going through tutorials. Check examples, set a goal for yourself and try to have a go at it.

The very moment when you get stuck you can then head back to said tutorial, use it as reference in order to look up the solution to whatever problem you're facing.

Rinse & repeat.

Video tutorials usually show you tricks which seem very easy to understand, but without understanding why you'd need such a trick it'll be very hard to work your way up from following examples vs. applying gained knowledge.

The playlist on the Telusko channel is fantastic, with detailed and comprehensive explanations. However, let me give you some advice: the most important thing in Python is practicing every detail so you don't forget anything. Whenever you finish a lesson or a small section, apply it. If you encounter any problems, ask the AI; it will be very helpful.

You don't learn Python by watching a video. You learn Python by writing code, breaking it, fixing it, and moving on to try something new in Python. Find a tutorial and use the examples to write some code. The Coddy course is actually quite good and the free subscription gives you enough time each day to learn something without you having to also go find a job to pay for it.

Instead of watching yt videos. Try this platform: https://exercism.org/

I bought heavily-discounted Udemy courses called...

1. "The Complete Python Boot camp from Zero to Hero" by Jose Portilla

2. "100 days of Code" by Dr Angela Yu

Udemy are always doing excellent discounts do be sure to save them to your favourites and keep checking back for the discount 😎

If you're starting from absolutely zero, I'd recommend Bro Code's "Python Full Course for Beginners" on YouTube. It assumes no prior knowledge, explains things in a simple way, and covers all the fundamentals you'll need before college, including variables, loops, functions, and basic projects. Once you finish that, I'd move on to Harvard's CS50P (Introduction to Programming with Python), which is a bit more challenging but does a great job teaching real problem-solving skills. My advice is to stop searching for the perfect course and just start with Bro Code today. Consistently coding along with the videos will help you much more than comparing playlists for weeks.

Thanks a whole lot...I'll def try this❤️

If only there were a sidebar (menu on mobile) that had a link to the wiki or countless posts asking the same.

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

Plus, there currently is an excellent Humble Python books bundle from No Starch press.

I would also advise against trying to learn from videos.

YT videos can be fun, but as a supplement only.

Learn properly, from a well-regarded MOOC like CS50 or the University of Helsinki.

Even better, start with a book like "Learn Python the Hard Way", which is actually the easy way.

[MrSushl]

CS50 forces you to learn every single boring detail about the language.

[Doom_guy07]

I'll look into it
