Does Anyone have any great resources to learn python for a non-programmer? Youtube? Free online courses, etc?

So far, i got python installed lol.

Thanks,

What's a good beginner resource for Javascript? Same place? I'm a C programmer looking to learn some.

If you already know C, JavaScript should be pretty easy to learn. It's funny, I actually didn't learn JavaScript from that resource.

But flipping thru it a little bit today, it's pretty decent stuff and walks you thru the language basics and idiosyncracies.

JavaScript was the first programming language I spent a lot of time with, so I'm biased in saying this. But it's extremely easy to learn & program with.

Factor in things like npm and node.js, it's very easy to get projects off the ground quickly. I of course do recommend learning the basics first, but also use chatGPT to help build a basic webapp. Building anything will only accelerate the learning process.
