Python is used in so many different contexts it's extremely hard to create "one tutorial to rule them all".

On that subject but also kinda out of topic, does anyone have good resources for learning Python?

My gf is very into excel macros and could benefit from Python as a data analysis tool, but as all resources online are paylocked it's hard to get an idea of their quality. She's also the learn-by-examples kind.

Real Python is great in general! They explain stuff well and correctly. I don't know if it's good for learning start to finish, but at least if there's a specific topic you need to deep diver deeper into. It's my go tho when exploring a new python related topic.

I learned python from codecademy back in the day, are they still around? I remember their examples/course being very interactive and completely free

Yeah, they ask for your payment details after the second section of their Python course 😢 I think I read somewhere that their Python 2 course was still free, but it's not very convenient. Paying would be okay, but it's hard to get an idea of what you get for the price without asking around 🤷‍♂️
