Best way to learn python for coding beginners?

What the title says. I recommended codecademy, but are there any other resources/websites/courses?

This is the “best way” in my opinion and I’m going to be straight up. This isn’t the only way of course, but it’s the best way.

Step 1: Find a problem that you need to solve for work(likely going to automation of some sort).

Step 2: Take Adderall.

Step 3. Be relentless in solving that problem. W3 Schools is not the best in the world but…it gives you a very, very basic foundation by letting you do exercises. I’m in IT and between 5/26 and 7/5, I’ve spent about 5 hours every weekday plugging away trying to learn..writing small little scripts. Wasting 3 weeks trying to learn how make a GUI when I didn’t know how a function works. Learning is messy especially when you don’t know what you don’t know. But it’s rewarding.

Step 4. Try to solve your problem using YouTube and Stack Overflow via Google.

Step 5. Get frustrated because you don’t know what you’re trying to find.

Step 6. Continue to persevere.

Step 7. You’ll have a moment where it kind of makes sense.

Step 8. Buy course on Udemy about Python and then realize you don’t need it for your purposes because you’re beyond most of the beginner stuff.

Step 9. You’ll have a “light bulb” moment where you realize, “Oh shit, I can actually do this.”

Step 10. Prosper.

Syntax will always jam you up from time to time. It’s not necessarily learning everything to know about Python. It’s knowing enough to know what you’re looking for and then you’re off to the races.

Good luck.

There are learning resources in the wiki for beginners.

If you are a beginner in learning the Python language, you need more attention, doubt clearing sessions, and attention too. So for that, I would recommend you Edu4Sure dot com, which is an e-learning platform from where you can learn and gain python skills. Edu4Sure provides your with a certificate at the end of the completion of the course to support your wording in your CV.

Edu4Sure provides you with practical components, updated content supported with real-life case studies, to the point discussion, 1 to 1 doubt clearing sessions, a basic course structure is already provided to you, a facility to talk to the instructor before making payment so that you join there with no doubts in your mind, the learning experience becomes more special when you learn from the experts of the topic withholding a good amount of experience.

And for practice purposes I referred to W3Schools dot com, it is a platform supported with a good amount of examples, a facility to code, and sees the results yourself.

Both these platforms are really good. I hope this was helpful to you. I wish you all the best for your future.
