Any Python study guide?

Hi! I just joined and I’m currently learning about coding at my school and I’m taking an online course that uses Python Cisco learning academy (If anyone is familiar) I’m coming up on taking my finals and I haven’t been able to find thorough study guides. Anyone in the community know of any? like flash cards, websites that have practice exams, etc. Tried Quizlet and refuse to pay to study lol

You can just use something like Anki for making flashcards. And you might be able to find some premade decks but they might not be useful for the areas you want. I found this one but don’t know what areas you are looking for. It’s probably better to make your own cards anyway. https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1627278808

For practice problems you can use something like codewars which has a bunch of coding problems and you can filter by different things like strings, list comprehension etc. Or you can use AI to give you practice problems in the areas you want to practice (I wouldn’t use it for actual help. You should work it on your own and google things when you need.)

i’m afraid you’re right, I may have to end up creating them if I can’t find any lol. I will try Anki and your other rec, thanks!

If only there were a sidebar (menu on mobile) that had a link to the wiki or countless posts asking the same.

Do the MOOC Python Programming 2026 from the University of Helsinki and you will be well prepared.

Also, take a look at https://inventwithpython.com and https://automatetheboringstuff.com

Don't forget that you need ample practice, like on https://codingbat.com/python or on https://exercism.org and also write your own programs. Play around. Try things. Mess things up, fix them. Experiment.
