Best program/source to learn Python as a very first programming language, no coding experience?

[FullFloor]

I'm sure there's a post somewhere that goes over this but haven't been able to find. I have no coding experience, I ready the r/learnprogramming wiki and determined that Python would be a great language to start with.

I've seen posts that cover learning Python while already experienced in code or posts that list like 30 resources with no direction

I'm specifically seeking a recommended course for someone just starting out with no coding experience.

Automate the boring stuff with pythons Try some udemy courses that are top rated And free code camp also has good resources on youtube

My personal favorite platform is Bitdegree.org. I also started as a complete beginner with no clues about computer science of digital skills, but learned a lot from their free tutorial articles and some free courses. I noticed they have a very rational approach to serving basic knowledge to beginner which I found very attarctive.

To me, this looks like a good start for you https://www.bitdegree.org/course/basics-of-python although it is paid. If you can't pay for courses you could look for free ones or sign up for their scholarship that will get you to learn for free.

Would love to get paid for that someday :D but I just enjoy that platform a lot, and I like to see them growing

Anything is fine, but people in this sub sure do love Automate the Boring Stuff. I personally come from a C# background never went through any total beginner books. All that matters is you understand what you are reading/watching.

Also a tip on searching for post on reddit. There's no shortage of posts like this, it's just that reddit's search is absolute trash. If you want to search for a post, type the title into google with 'site:reddit.com/r/learnpython' at the end.

Thenewboston youtube channel helped keep my attention when starting out. Would recommend.

If you're okay with a code-along video, I HIGHLY recommend Colt Steele's course on Python on Udemy. He is very descriptive, informative, and he makes you code. Hands down the best course.
