I did a quick search and couldn't find a thread on this (which could be a poor search by yours truly). I'm wondering about learning python for both some work things that I want to do and a personal thing that I want to do. I understand enough to know that python would be good in these situations.

I feel like I'm reasonably computer literate and such, but far from an expert. I've never done any coding, so I'm not sure what the best way to do this is. There are a couple of courses offered within my industry and I've debated those, but for say $500-1000 and a day or two can I learn enough to make that worthwhile?

I also know that there are online resources, but I don't know how feasible that is either?

I guess that brings me to the title...what's the best way for me to approach this?
