I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

The Python official documentation is quite good, start from the Tutorial though - it's not a tutorial at all, it's the guide reorganized logically. I am learning Python too.

Not specifically about Python, but I found a mixture of Stackoverflow & reference documentation to generally be the best way to learn stuff.

No I didn't, but then again I am an American High Schooler, I was given the FLVS(Florida Virtual School, no I am not a Florida Man, I don't live in Florida... :laugh: ) class Computer Programming. I have also used many different sites to learn, one of those being this site. W3schools https://www.w3schools.com/python/default.asp I have also used Khan Academy, CodeAcademy, and other free resources. And then if you are interested in certification, Google offers a free course. The course with certification is $49.00(USD) a month. Hope this helps Eddie. Good luck. If you got any questions let me know, just started the second semester with Lists and just got done with OOPs. :)
