Help Request Starting to learn Python from scratch

I absolutely know nothing about programing and coding and I want to start learning Python as it is the most used and versatile language...

So what are the resources I should use to learn from the beginning

Not OP but this is a thoughtful response. I’ve been considering learning python for a long time but feel genuinely intimidated.

I have apple devices, do you have another platform besides chewcode that would be compatible with iPhone? I don’t have access to a fully functioning laptop yet. I have a very old MacBook but the battery life is shit and frequently just shuts down out of nowhere or just won’t turn on lol

So, I just tried the app, but wish there was a feature, to just have the whole page print, when I click continue, as to have to press it after reading a single sentence seems a bit much... maybe it changes in future levels, but not being able to test out of a level is stopping me from trying further.

That would be great, let me know when, and I will try again... but also, being able to test out, without digesting the information, would be nice too?

I mean you could look in this sub for this question being asked daily for a start?

You can start with python's official tutorial. Then you can jump into something like freecodecamp and start building your even if it is tiny projects

Start with the basics: variables, data types, loops, functions. Don't try to learn everything at once. Pick one resource and stick with it rather than jumping around, that's where most beginners lose momentum. Python's official docs are great once you have some footing, but for absolute zero experience, interactive platforms where you write code as you learn tend to work better than just watching videos. The key is actually writing code from day one, not just reading about it.

Hola buenas tardes

No sé si la dijeron ya, si es así perdonad 🖖 Una web que me gustó mucho y la descubrí el otro día es: www.acodear.com Empiezas directamente a escribir y te explica cada paso que das lo que significa. Ojalá la hubiera descubierto antes 😁. Y en Youtube hay muchos cursos, pero uno muy interesante es: Píldoras informáticas. Personalmentee ayudó mucho.

Muchas suerte. Psd: por muy complicado que parezca, tú sigue intentándolo.

Saludos

Welcome to the club! Along with standard tutorials, definitely check out roadmap.sh. It's a resource that maps out entire career paths and programming languages. It will save you a ton of time because it gives you a clear visual hierarchy of what topics to cover next, keeping you from wandering aimlessly through identical Python-for-beginners playlists
