The internet is currently filled with loads of convenient resources for learning various programming languages, such as videos, online courses, eBooks, websites, and so much more. All thanks to the increasing trend of e-learning. The Python websites covered in this article provide free access to users and cover various topics with in-depth tutorials, practice questions, and a lot more for all you Python learners ;)
Here's a list of 10 FREE resources to learn Python. Go ahead and read on!
1. The Python Tutorial
The best place to learn a programming language is its official docs given by the developers. Every single course or website mentioned below is based on the official docs. So, if you managed to extract knowledge from here, then automatically, you have completed all the courses. But the bad part is that beginners find official docs quite tough. Still, if you are a beginner, I'd recommend you to start with this.
