I have been picking up Python as a beginner coding language for quick ability to scrypt basic programs for data collection and if I get really good at it then using tensor flow artificial intelligence and neural network setups.

Figured I would share the tutorials and classes I have discovered thus far.

This was the most basic tutorial of just basic tools in the language and basic applications of them. As well as a brief introduction into what you can do with Python and the necessary programs and libraries you need for Python to code.

Next is a more in depth look at Python and plenty more examples of its applications as you learn. This course is from Google and has many hintings to using Python for their AI protocols "Tensorflow"

After learning from Google the next best thing would be to learn form the source, Python itself. This tutorial is from the Python Software Foundation.

Here is one more tutorial in video form for the visual learners out there, and this one is also from Google. It is recommended to have a little coding experience before watching this video. I watched the video after the basic tutorial from the first link as my second piece of information to learning Python.

Last for the learning courses; this one is about computer science as a whole not just the Python language. It is more of an extra curricula for those who are planning to go more into coding and software development.
