Programming is an essential skill as you operate data on some machine. But, we are not all Computer Science graduate who learnt Software Engineering at uni. That’s alright. It’s never too late to learn a new trick. Here are some good reads to learn programming in Python.
As usual, I want you to know that this list may not be complete and you’re always invited to suggest changes on GitHub. Thank you for your contribution.

Don’t feel scared about the title. It won’t be harder to learn Python with this book other than using any other ressource. “Hard” refers to the instructive style the author deployed to guide you through some challenges and tasks. Worth it!

“Getting started”, “Getting it done”, “Getting it right”, “Getting it out there”. These are the three sections of the book. It covers the full package of programming in Python. Mind that it has keeps the academical research context as a back drop. But that would not harm aspiring Data Professionals at all. Super recommend that book!
