How to Start Programming
- pizzicato 6y ago> 1. Start learning Python I should preface this by saying I'm still pretty much a programming novice, and this is my personal experience with learning to program. My very first attempt to was with Zed Shaw's Learn Python the Hard Way. I know his approach is controversial among the Python community; personally, it made learning to program even more intimidating than it needed to be, and I ditched it about halfway through. Automate the Boring Stuff with Python[0] was a fantastic introduction for me as an absolute beginner, in large part because it showed how useful programming can be to non-IT people. It felt great to have actual, somewhat useful, projects as I went through the book. I then went through the official Python tutorial[1] to get a rough idea of the basics I should learn. Finding out what I didn't know, that I needed to know, was really helpful. Real Python[2] has some nice tutorials on developing with Python.

- Vlad81b 6y agoTnx for the information. I did not want to suggest any books - the only reason is there is 1000 links on what book. But I want the reader to develop skills from 0 to advance. Tnx for advice and links!
