Remember that you need to make a commitment and be consistent. Dedicate time to learn every day. It doesn’t matter how much. Find a time that works for you.

  1. You need to learn programming fundamentals. (If you already know a different language, you may skip this step). “Learn to Program” is a free course that will teach you the basics of programming using Python.
  2. Introduction to Python Programming is another great option to get started. This is a free course from Udacity. It covers a little more than “Learn to Program”, so this is the one I’d recommend to get started if you already know another language.
  3. Books are great to go through too depending on your learning style. They all start from the beginning. Choose one. Here are 4 good ones:
  4. If you like games, try CodeCombat at the same time you are taking your lessons. This is gamified learning, and you’ll get some practice with Python while having fun.
  5. You want to spend as much time as possible creating projects. Pick a different project if you have a better idea, but actively make something. Pick one of the following projects:
    • A dice rolling simulator
    • Rock, paper, scissors game
    • A calculator
    • The hangman game
  6. Practice even more with coding challenges. These are easy to hard.
  7. Find a buddy to work with. Two heads are better than one. The other person will keep you accountable.
  8. Going through all of these may take longer than 30 days. That’s to be expected! These recommendations will get you started and on the right path. Remember: if you want it bad enough, then you will make it happen!
