Hello fellow lemmians (I hope that is correct), I want to learn a programming language in my free time, like a hobby and not necessarly for work. I think a general purpose language like python would be a good choice. I'm the type who prefer paperback books to minimize distraction and I would like your recommendation for a book, Im thinking about "Python crash course 3d edition" but feel free to suggest something else

there is no fixed schedule you have to follow. you watch the lessons on youtube at a time that works for you and then you upload homeworks when it works for you. you don't even have deadlines for the individual homeworks, so if you find out you are not going to have time for the next two weeks, that is fine.

you can also choose just to watch the videos, if you so decide, but making the homeworks is where you really learn.
