I loved using Boot.dev to learn Python. This course was so much fun. I learned a lot, so much more than just reading a book. The quizzes and such were excellent, too.

Boot.dev takes all the syntax and core concepts of python and structure it in a way where you can build each piece on knowledge on top of another while testing that knowledge by writing your own code

This course was HARD but not impossible. If you have no experience with python or any language for that matter it will push you constantly. However when you finish this course you will have excellent foundational skills not just in python but in programming in general. This was probably the best online learning material I have ever used. It has no equal.

It is a very accesible and easy to understand course with the proper time for study. The only limitation was myself and I will recommend it always.
