Re: Learn Python From Scratch

I've thought about Python too, but that's as far as I've progressed.

I think I would learn it on the PC, since AFAIK, there is no debugger on
the IBM i.

Do you use VS Code? If so, it has strong support for Python and an has a
tutorial. Which I obviously have not used.

Surprised John Y hasn't commented, since he is a strong Python
user/advocate.

What do you think is a better approach.
Learn it from the perspective of running on the IBMi and that port that

Learn it from the perspective the rest of the world and port that over

to the IBMi?

Is there really much difference?
Recommended resource for either or both.
