I have some experience with C++ before, I recently have been using python to built an engineering application for my company, I absolutely love python. So far I have been writing my code and getting help from python documentation. I m interested to buy these books. Thanks for your video.

As someone who is currently reading a java beginner book, I will say that the books are the best way to get a foundational understanding. I was taking courses online and those helped, but I really wanted to get straight to what I had set out to do. I know this is not relevant to Python; however, I do strongly recommend reading a book over getting a course. They're more inexpensive, and give a stronger sense of learning. That's where all the knowledge is at anyway for the most part. I just ordered a MYSQL book for less than ten dollars and the book I have now that is by Packt is helpful. I am by all means a complete novice; yet, I already feel much more knowledgeable about the topics I knew nothing about previously even if it's just something small.

Hey Giles! Your video lessons are awesome! And it seems like you definitely know a whole lot about all of this, but I am feeling like I am lacking a decent overview in terms of IT Fundamentals - ITF, in order to be able to keep a good overview in all things programming and career development in IT and programming. What Book(s) would you recommend for that ? Thank you for your amazing content and I'll definitely check out your courses, too, due to good teaching/learning here!

Complete beginner and bookworm here, thank you for a helpful and concise video! 🤓

What are the other books you were thinking of at 0:50 that are "more computer science"?

Python Crash Course is currently saving me after I did a term on programming fundamentals with Python and came out not knowing a thing. I'm at lists (chapter 3) and I have never understood concepts this clearly in my academic life.

Is there anything you can recommend for python and working with API and JSON? Automating stuff on services which provide an API?

For intermediate level I love the books "Fluent Python" and "Python tricks the book".
