Hello, im looking for some beginer-intermediate knowledge in python. I’m interested in more text rather than video based courses preferably with exersises.
Automate the boring stuff and Python Crash Course are 2 standard books that are often recommended. The first one is freely available as PDF. I haven’t read them myself though.
Fluent Python is another good book to learn Python. It is very clear and it has a lot of examples.
I own fluent Python and it is defenitely not for beginners.
I learned Python by starting with a project and then seeking out tutorials for helping with that subject.
My project was a simple website, so the Django Project’s official tutorial was where I spent most of my time. These days it’s still excellent, and there’s now Django Girls who host a larger set of tutorials as well.
Maybe you’re not interested in web stuff, and that’s fine. My advice would be to figure out what you want to learn more specifically and look for tutorials for that. If nothing else, it’ll make the learning process more interesting.
I have a list of curated resources here: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_resources/
There are sections for beginners, intermediate, advanced, etc. Also included are exercises, projects, debugging, testing, and many more stuff. Hope it helps :)
Thanks for the list :)
@SpaceTurtle224 Why not just Google? You’ll find plenty of what you’re looking for, and much quicker than waiting for that one person willing to answer your lazy “question” (which isn’t even a question).
Next time you’re in front of the comment box about to add some pointless snark to the world, don’t. Then sit back and reflect on how you made the world a better place through inaction.
@misophist Nah.
I’m looking for human answers that have worked out for people. i want to avoid the tutorial hell
@SpaceTurtle224 @twoframesperminute
There are plenty of great tutorials, from beginner (me) to advanced, at https://realpython.com/ , many of them free. I’ve found them invaluable.
Python Crash Course is good but very very basic.@SpaceTurtle224 you’re “looking for” and easy answer to a question you can answer yourself easily. Your “question” did not even specify what your looking for.
Just ask him to add some more details to the question, no need to be an ass about it. Beginners often do not know how to ask for things efficiently, a skill you have to learn on your journey to being programmer.
