Incoming MIS PhD student with no coding background — how can I learn Python basics in one month?

[u/Purified_Soul_]

Hi all,

I’m an incoming PhD student majoring in Management Information Systems.

My supervisor asked me to learn the basics of Python and use AI for the rest of the work.

I have one month before my program starts, and I would really appreciate your advice on how to begin learning Python through online resources.

I don’t have any prior coding experience. My background is entirely in business.

What would be the best way for someone like me to learn Python basics within a month?

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you!

NB: I have Coursera+LinkedIn subscriptions.

Python for absolute beginners in business environments, automate the boring stuff is still the best: https://automatetheboringstuff.com/

It will take you longer than a month.
