How to Learn Python

Since Python 2 will be deprecated in 2020, it is highly recommended to learn Python 3.

Resources

• MITs Introductory computer science course: The course uses Python as a language of instruction and also teaches lots of important computer science concepts along the way.
• Python Problems on Hacker Rank: Good to get a hang of the language when you have read the basics.

General Tips and Advice

• Try learning by doing, if you just read then you'll forget.
• Having a buddy to learn with is quite helpful.
• Don't try to cram commands in first go. In case, you forget the syntax, then google it.
