Overview

Here are the tutorials I’ve seen that teach Python programming.

See my tutorial for how I would teach introduction to Python in the ChatGPT age that portends unemployed programmers.

NOTE: Content here are my personal opinions, and not intended to represent any employer (past or present). “PROTIP:” here highlight information I haven’t seen elsewhere on the internet because it is hard-won, little-know but significant facts based on my personal research and experience.

Python Official documentation

https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html is the official documentation and is designed to overwhelm with all the details.

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial is the official tutorial by those who created the Python language. That’s the place to learn Python with no gaps.

180+ Azure Python SDK libraries are open-sourced at https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/releases/latest/python.html to provision, manage and use Azure resources from within your Python applications, whether they reside on the cloud or on-premise.

The Python packages from pipy and conda from https://aka.ms/azsdk/python/docs https://github.com/azure/azure-sdk-for-python/

There are two distinct types of libraries in the SDK:

When using the SDK, develop your applications locally, then deploy them to the cloud. To configure your local development environment, install necessary components, such as Python and the Azure CLI, then configure authentication to the Azure resources to access.
