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.
