Python 3.4 Programming Tutorials

Fuck udemy courses no one comes close to touching this guy.

Python tutorial by thenewboston on youtube, this guy has mad skills.
I've been polishing up my functions and classes watching his videos, straight to the point with a bit of humour and his random daily stories makes it just interesting for the 20-something audience.

Tools of the Trade

Here are the tools I use to get started in Python

 

- Sublime 2 (nice text editor with syntax highlighting)

- Windows PowerShell (you can use any command line software)

 

and that's it those 2 simple tools for doing everything in python of course you can download packages for both programs but I wont go into that will leave that for another post.

 

So far I've got the hang of pythons main syntax like classes, and objects, loops, and if statements. Its now 2 weeks and I'm loving it. Some would give up at this point but for me I've kept on going.

Python with Codecademy

As I'm reading "Learn Python the Hard Way" I alternate or mix it up with the python beginners course at codecademy.

Codecademy is a learning tool the "Learn by doing" method allows you to get a better in sight of what's going on and how a lot things work. Things you already know from LPTHW can help get the course done quicker, and can work the other way with the book.

I came up with this "Hey do 2 courses at the same time as both courses teach you differently." approach. It's been only a week and a half since learning Python and I'm getting use to objects, classes, and functions already.
