Coding Resources
The following online resources are useful references/debugging aids to students of programming, and are focused primarily on the Python environment.
- Geeks for GeeksA useful resource for programmers. Can be used for quick reference when debugging but also includes foundational courses for students and professionals. Covers a number of languages including Python and many of its libraries.
- GitHubOriginally an online software repository based on Git, a Linux version control package, GitHub now offers social networking functions, issue tracking and access to a wide range of publicly available software packages.
- Google's Python resourcesGoogle's Python tutorial aimed at people with a little bit of programming experience, it includes written materials, lecture videos, and code exercises.
- Python 3 documentationThe official documentation for the current version of Python.
- Stack OverflowA site where coding enthusiasts post programming questions which other enthusiasts answer. The answers are rated, earning “reputation points” for the providers of popular answers. The information provided on this site can be useful but should be approached with caution by inexperienced programmers as judging which responses are most valuable or why a particular approach is best can be difficult. Sites that provide context may be more helpful as you develop your skills.
- W3 Schools - Python tutorialW3Schools is a useful resource for beginner to intermediate programmers. Can be used as a step-by-step tutorial or as a quick reference. Clear examples of basic coding - Covering a number of laguages including Python, HTML & CSS
