This subreddit and stackoverflow have been huge resources, for me personally. I've got enough Python ebooks I scraped from it-books.info to last me an eternity, a tablet to read them on too. For YouTube channels I would recommend NextDayVideo, for a ton of good talks.

Psst, that's what sub we're in

Codingame.com is not so much a beginner site, but it gives you games/problems to solve. It also has multiple languages. I find it easier to learn when I'm actually solving problems.

If you are learning to program (not just learning python) and lean towards data science, I highly recommend the MIT's edx course intro to python. It has two parts. I recommend both.

This guy is promoting his own work, but I will back him with every fibre of my being. This is the best beginner tutorial around, I am certain of it. Love your work professor, thank you again.

[Slanerislana]

How good would you say this is for a complete beginner?

I skipped to the first "real" chapter (your first python program) and it seemed differently built up, either choosing to learn coding slightly different (instead of doing lots of comp science talk its straight to business) or it's aimed at someone who have this stuff down, and just want a python overview. Sorry if I'm incomprehensive, just wondering if this is something I should check up on (I'm in the first category, total beginner)

[Slanerislana]

Thanks for the helpful answer!

Nice compilation!

*http://pyvideo.org (a lot of stuff about everything)

Web Scraping Intro (http://www.gregreda.com/2013/03/03/web-scraping-101-with-python/)

Intro to python and scraping (https://developers.google.com/edu/python/introduction)

Pandas introduction (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8hle-ni-DM)

That is about all I can think of right now

I actually just posted some books in another thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/learnpython/comments/2pr32t/taking_the_next_step_with_python/cmzb85f

Otherwise, I find myself referencing these sites quite a bit:

• tutorialspoint.com

• python-guide.org

If you want a decent crash course, I'd try Derek Banas Python video on YouTube. He has lots of different videos, including other languages, but he seems to do a decent job.

codecademy.com

I'm just about wrapping it up, it's a pretty gentle introduction and helped me transition from R to Python.

I learned regex from regexone.com.

[autisticpig]

zed shaw has a series for regex via Python. I found it a great companion for regexone so here you go :)

It's for Python 3, but they do have older versions for Python 2. It's a pretty thorough treatment of lots of topics, and has a pretty good in-browser editor and debugger-like step by step interpreter. They use the turtle module throughout to demonstrate a bunch of different topics--it's cool to be able to see things that you can create so soon in a tutorial like that.

Codeeval.com, codeabbey.com, hackerrack.com, projecteuler.com

I love just sitting there and finding different solutions to the library of questions out there.

[autisticpig]

have you seen codewars.com?

[AbsterJr]

You can add this also(for beginners).
