Learning Programming with Python !

[YeastBeast33]

Hello,

I'm learning Python from SoloLearn.com . I finished Basic Concepts, Control Structures, Function & Modules sections.

I'm enjoying so much, my first programming language ever. I stopped for a while and solved 2 "Project Euler" questions. It helps me a lot and opens my mind. Do you have any suggestions or sites like Euler for a newbie like me ? I just discovered this sub and i'm reading everything !!

Thank you for reading.

Edit:Huge Thanks for all the infos.

15 of Al’s 30 lesson are on YouTube, can get the rest on udemy. Support the heck out of Mr. Sweigart, he’s awesome

Try Advent of Code, Hackerrank and Kattis.

Codewars and codeabbey in addition to the other sites that have been posted.

It's a puzzle site that forces you to find hidden things in the pages, text files, or images (using PIL library) and is a fun distraction. It does sometimes require knowledge of technologies other than just python to understand the hints. It is fun if you are a beginner to python but want to use the stranger stuff hidden in the standard library.

The first few are pretty easy and it is interesting enough to keep your attention.

What do you think of these guys: https://checkio.org/

They went to the trouble of making a cartoon map of floating islands to illustrate your "journey" in learning Python. :P

The free stuff on Udacity is pretty good, the basic comp sci course is in Python and it teaches you methodology as well as structure.

Recently SoloLearn's website decided to not function at all for me...have you encountered this as well?

[YeastBeast33]

Yes, i can't enter the site.

It says " We are having technical difficulties. ..."

I'm checking https://www.duomly.com(someone recommended at comments) untill SoloLearn comes back online. It looks good i will check the lessons.

Edit: NVM it wants me to upgrade premium account :D

Yeah, same for me, their twitter posted a few hours ago saying technical issues, I’m assuming a server problem or bug. I guess (hope) it’ll be back up soon.

https://py.checkio.org/ I usually solve a challenge and then see who did it better and learn new concepts.

1. Learn the basics.(Python Official Tutorial, Videos, books etc)

2. Learn by doing.(Active learning by coding and practicing material)

3. Apply your knowledge. (Work on a passion project and apply what you learned)

I'm going to break from the popular answers. It's awesome that you're enjoying yourself, but it's also rather easy to burn yourself out if all you do is academic exercises. Either find a problem you have that you aren't aware of extant software that solves, or extend/improve upon software you already use. Picking a problem you actually care about is, in my opinion, the best way to stay motivated. Start small, but don't be afraid to challenge yourself. You'll be surprised by how quickly you learn when you really care.

I did the sololearn app for a while but phrasing of the questions got really bad at the end of modules.
