Top 5 Resources To Learn Python
My next top this time will be devoted to the best resources in my opinion for learning python.
I think if you are reading this, what is python and what is the meaning and value of owning it does not need to be explained, so I will immediately move on to the resources I recommend.
Learn Python
If all resources on the Internet are literature, then Learn Python in it is "War and Peace". A true classic and a great resource to get you started on your programming language journey.
I put it in the first place, because this is the best collection of tutorials with which a beginner is best to start.
Learn Python covers all programming language basics. After passing all the tasks and tests, you can get an excellent base that can be improved in the future (with the help of other resources on this list).
"Learn Python" Workspace
Upon completion of training, you can take a test and get a certificate if you have a strong desire. Learn Python together with LearnX provides such an opportunity.

Data Quest
Data Quest is one platform with many free courses. In fact, this is another alternative to the above resources, but the courses here are more focused on working with data.
Data Quest Courses
This is a great resource for those who don't just want to learn python, but already know what career path they will choose after learning this programming language - Data Analyst/Data Scientist/Data Engineer.
Data Analyst Course with Python
On the site you can find full-fledged free courses where an absolute beginner will be taught data professions. During the course, students create a portfolio for themselves. So at the end, it is already possible to look for a job.
Data Camp
The resource is very similar to the previous one and is perhaps the most famous among others on this list.
I will say right away that in order to study whatever you want without restrictions, you will have to buy a monthly subscription. It's up to you to decide if it's worth it or not.
Data Camp Prices
Data Camp presents a huge range of data skills courses. Here you can literally learn everything - just learn python, and get a new specialty in the field of data.
Data Camp Courses
As in the previous resource, here you can learn a profession in the field of data from scratch, understand what you are interested in and whether you generally like it.
Data Camp - Get a New Job Courses
As a result, a good resource, but paid. It's up to you to decide whether it's worth the money, I'll tell you from myself - it's worth it.
Kaggle
Another resource for learning about data manipulation and visualization.
I will say right away that Kaggle is not exactly a learning platform. There are very few courses here and, to be honest, they are not presented in the best possible way. Even for me, a person with experience, some things seemed too confusing.
Kaggle Courses
The courses here are quite superficial and boring. Someone will ask - why then did you put this resource in the selection. Everything is very simple - I will answer. Kaggle is a huge sandbox where everyone has the opportunity to publish their datasets, as well as the code for them.
Competitions are held on datasets, internal prizes (medals) are given for various achievements on the site, and the community is such that you can not leave this site for hours.
Kaggle Competitions
In fact, it's a data scientist's paradise, as well as a great platform where you can build a great portfolio with the knowledge and skills you've already acquired. That is why I placed this resource at the very end.
Conclusion
This is how I came out. Perhaps it is too focused on teaching Data skills, and not python as a whole, but that's how I studied this programming language, that is, as a tool for working with data, and not as something separate, existing by itself. I recommend that you learn python as well.
