Python Newbie - phylon - Jan-09-2018
Hi
I am looking for the best method to get into PYTHON and would like to inquire if I have to learn how to interact with PYTHON data types before even starting to program in PYTHON i.e?:
bool: Boolean (true/false)
int: Signed integer types. ...
uint: Unsigned integer types. ...
float: Floating point types. ...
complex: Complex number types. ...
string: Raw string types. ...
time: Data/time types. ...
enum: Enumerated types.
I am just trying to find my footing into PYTHON and want to create a good foundation to set off from but with so many resources available on the subject it becomes intimidating.

A good start is the official python tutorial. At first you need to learn how to use lists, dicts, tuples and functions, then learn classes. Then you can start writing python code and your main problem will be to find your way though the standard library. Learn it step by step, focusing on what's the most useful for you.
