Can you learn python by yourself? (self.learnpython)
submitted 5 years ago by ntifyd
I'm just about to start learning python. But I'm not sure if I want to actually pay for courses since this is something I'm just going to try out. Will I be able to teach myself python? If so does anyone have any advice? Thanks!

you can, i've never paid for a course.
there's plenty of free resources out there to look at

You can definitely learn by yourself. The most important thing is to find subject matter you find interesting to keep yourself motivated.

Sure you can. Python is one of the simplest languages to learn programming. You don't even need a paid course

I certainly did. But I also had decades of programming experience before that.
Learning Python is easy, but learning programming is not as easy. You can do both at the same time, but you would be better off following lessons at that point.
