free-python-books VS 100_page_python_intro

FreeCodeCamp has brilliant and very informative videos on Python, I would definitely check them out. You can also follow a book if that's your thing. You can find plenty here: https://github.com/pamoroso/free-python-books.

I would start with this list of free books

Books?

here a copypasta with lot of free info ## Several roadmaps about what to learn to be a successful professional (front, back, sysop, python, etc) https://roadmap.sh/ ## Official Python Beginner's Guide * https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide ## FreeCodeCamp.org * https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/ While main course is about full stack JS dev they also have several GREAT 10hs (or so) video curses in their [YT channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/Freecodecamp/videos) python's playlists: - [Python Basics with Sam](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWKjhJtqVAbkmRvnFmOd4KhDdlK1oIq23) 14 videos - [Full Courses in One Video](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWKjhJtqVAbnupwRFOq9zGOWjdvPRtCmO) 52 videos but they have full courses about lot of things. ## Great channels about python: * [Arjan Codes](https://www.youtube.com/c/ArjanCodes) - Interesting architecture videos * [mCoding with James Murphy](https://www.youtube.com/c/mCodingWithJamesMurphy) - small tips * [Corey Schaefer](https://www.youtube.com/c/Coreyms/) - Basics of python * [Sentdex](https://www.youtube.com/c/sentdex) - Basics and machine learning * [Tech with Tim](https://www.youtube.com/c/TechWithTim/) - Small python projects * [Telusko](https://www.youtube.com/c/Telusko) - Basics in fun way * [Socratcia](https://www.youtube.com/c/Socratica) - Short and interesting videos * [Real python](https://www.youtube.com/c/realpython) * [The new Boston](https://www.youtube.com/user/thenewboston) * [CS Dojo](https://www.youtube.com/c/CSDojo) - Best for OOPS concept * [Clever programmer](https://www.youtube.com/c/CleverProgrammer) - Building things ## RealPython I found this site useful with lot of good tutorials, but they block lot of the material behind payware https://realpython.com/ ## Microsoft YT Channel Microsoft offer three playlist with Python courses - [Python for Beginners](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlrxD0HtieHhS8VzuMCfQD4uJ9yne1mE6) 44 videos - [More Python for Beginners](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlrxD0HtieHiXd-nEby-TMCoUNwhbLUnj) 20 videos - [Even More Python for Beginners: Data Tools](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlrxD0HtieHhHnCUVtR8UHS7eLl33zfJ-) 31 videos ## Udemy courses This course is usually given for free by the author here at begin of month or so (he publish it in /r/learnpython) - https://www.udemy.com/course/automate/ I can't endorse any of those courses since I haven't bought them, but their content look complete - https://www.udemy.com/course/complete-python-bootcamp/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/learn-python-by-building-a-blockchain-cryptocurrency/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/python-the-complete-python-developer-course/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/complete-python-bootcamp/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/100-days-of-code/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/learn-python-by-building-a-blockchain-cryptocurrency/ this serie of courses - https://www.udemy.com/course/python-3-deep-dive-part-1/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/python-3-deep-dive-part-2/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/python-3-deep-dive-part-3/ - https://www.udemy.com/course/python-3-deep-dive-part-4/ Also remember only buy in Udemy when the courses are between 9/12usd values and not at their full price (90/250) that are inflated prices... ## Exercises and practices: * https://www.practicepython.org/ * [Exercism](https://exercism.org/tracks/python/exercises) * [Practicepython](https://www.practicepython.org/) — these are all beginner friendly and difficulty levels are marked * [100 Page Python Intro exercises](https://github.com/learnbyexample/100_page_python_intro/blob/main/exercises/Exercises.md) — exercises from my introductory guide * [Code Wars](https://www.codewars.com/), [Advent of Code](https://adventofcode.com/), [Project Euler](https://projecteuler.net/) — more challenging * [Checkio](https://py.checkio.org/) * [Codingame](https://www.codingame.com/start) * [Codecombat](https://codecombat.com/) — gaming based challenges * [/r/dailyprogrammer](https://www.reddit.com/r/dailyprogrammer) — not active currently, but there's plenty of past challenges with discussions ------ [original source](https://redd.it/pwvi0t) Not sure if many people know this, but Microsoft has a learning resource platform called [Microsoft Learn](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/), which provides free training to learn different skills related to different technologies. Each course is designed as a module, in each module, it contains different lessons and exercises. Thought I'd share.

100 Page Python Intro - https://learnbyexample.github.io/100_page_python_intro/

100 Page Python Intro — my short, introductory guide

* https://learnbyexample.github.io/100_page_python_intro/

Thanks for adding them.

I have a short introductory guide for those already familiar with programming basics, should work for your case too: https://learnbyexample.github.io/100_page_python_intro/

I also have a short, introductory guide here: 100 Page Python Intro

I have short, introductory guide titled 100 Page Python Intro — I conduct workshops for those already familiar with programming basics from another language, so I wrote this guide. Might help you and it is free to read online

100 Page Python Intro - my own introductory guide for those already familiar with programming basics (or coming back to Python like your case)

The https://github.com/learnbyexample/100_page_python_intro repo has program/example files, markdown source and other details about the book.

All the Python programs discussed in this book, along with related text files, can be accessed from my GitHub repo learnbyexample: 100_page_python_intro. However, I highly recommend typing the programs manually by yourself.
