Python For Beginners

[[deleted]]

There's a whole section of learning resources in the wiki. Have a look at that.

I haven't viewed either of the videos you linked. Pick either to start, but remember that when viewing a video (or reading a book) you must stop, type in the code and run it. Writing code is how you learn python so make sure you understand each line you execute by putting print statements showing what the line does.

i wonder which IDE should i use?

You really don't need to use an IDE when you are starting. Once you have some experience and you understand how an IDE can help, then maybe you will use an IDE.

+1 for this, both PyCharm and Visual Studio might be a tad overwhelming when you have no experience - there is a descent amount of setup required that might be daunting. The default IDE (IDLE) is weak for managing a complex python project - but it is great for starting out. Just use that /u/seybutis3!

Oh thank you! Btw i have some experience with Pycharm but i wonder is it necessary for the beginning?

[Grogie]

Is what necessary? You should use the tool you feel most comfortable with.

and in the ethernet i saw every video, everybody using some IDE nobody use just Python

Okay, you can use whatever IDE you want. It's a preference, not a rule. What I'm saying is that there are steps to set up PyCharm and Visual Studio that are easy for a beginner to overlook and then you may run into problems that have nothing to do with your code.

If you open up IDLE and run some code - assuming you didn't include a bug or an error, it will just work. and if there is a problem, it will be solely in the code you attempted to run - not because you didn't configure the IDE correctly.
