I have been writing Python professionally since 1999. Whenever I am asked about learning Python, first and foremost, I recommend trying to accomplish real tasks to help expedite your learning. Maybe you have a computer-based task you perform regularly which could benefit from Python automation? Try using it in a way which relates to things you know.
Here are some resources I've provided folks with when starting out:
Python Courses
- Python | Codecademy
- Learn to Program and Analyze Data with Python: Develop programs to gather, clean, analyze, and visualize data.
- Programming Foundations with Python: Learn Object-Oriented Programming
- Learn to Program Using Python: Hands on introduction to the Python programming language
- Python on Khan Academy
- Python on Udemy
Python Weekly Newsletter
Python User Groups
Maybe your city has a Python User Group you can attend? Mine has the Tampa Bay Python. Check meetup.com for your area.
