Good way to learn Python

Question

Hello Ladies and Gents
I am a newbie who search for good way to learn Python. Nowadays I do SL course for begginers but I wonder if there are any publications which can be usefull and help understand this aspects faster?
I know that I have to practice a lot to get some experience and here I have another question - besides SL tasks how am I able to write codes?
Do I have to use Linux (on PC) or may I stay with Windows? And which program shall I download?

I will be happy and thankfull for any advices or some sort of criticism.
And I really apologize for my English but I can't speak/write fluently.

With best regards,
Ian

Sololearn course is fine to learn fundamental of python, but to build for example app or game, you also need to learn library for it(to add interface, so it wont be console app/game for example).

Most people use Linux to code, but you can code on windows also (you may need to research little more, many courses are based on lynux), best is to have dual system on your pc, or to use virtual machine, but if you cant it is fine. Some companies work with linux only so you can get a job faster in this company if you have experience working with this system.

To code on pc use code editor, like vs code or some other. To practice code challanges you can use codewars, this site have a lot of challanges, from easy to more advance, so you can practice and also see others solution.

If you strugle with some topic, search on internet, or watch some tutorial.

A great way to learn Python is by combining theory with practice. I recommend books like *Learning Python* by Mark Lutz or online resources such as Coursera courses or the free website learnpython.org — they offer plenty of interactive exercises. You don’t need to switch to Linux to write code; Windows works just fine. Simply download and install Python from the official site, python.org, and use convenient code editors like VS Code or PyCharm (both have free versions). Practice regularly — build small projects and solve problems on sites like LeetCode or Codewars.

By the way, if you enjoy sports betting in your free time, I suggest checking out Melbet — it’s the top online bookmaker in Uzbekistan with a user-friendly interface and a wide selection of events. I use it often myself. Here’s the registration link: https://melbet-uz.app/kirish/ — give it a try!
