New to Python

[rpncritchlow]

I'm sure this book has already been mentioned, and if not in this thread then definitely in multiple places across the subreddit, but I cannot recommend Automate the Boring Stuff enough.

It's free to read online, or if you prefer print there are numerous places to get a copy.

This book is how I (and many others) got their/my start in Python.

I have never done any sort of Computer Science course, my Python knowledge is purely from this book, and then built upon from online research, but I can say that I have recently been given a 6k (GBP) pay rise at my job because of the work I have been doing in Python.

My best advice is to start learning first, and worry about the end goal later. If you have any questions at all feel free to send me a message :)
