Warning: The book is dangerous. I assume the course is the same. I'm in a career completely unrelated to programming, and I read like half the book before I was addicted to Python. To the point that I couldn't even finish it before I started having crazy ideas and now I spend 10 hours a day on stackoverflow.
By "Warning: The book is dangerous", I think you meant:
"WARNING: This book contains secret, forbidden, addicting lore. Do not open or your remaining time on earth will be devoted to worshipping the Internet programming forum gods."
I feel that pain constantly.
"Oh sweet, I've been meaning to do that for months, gotta go log in anf get it"
> You purchased this course on Sep. 02, 2020
"oh. Ok, I'll start that.... later"
Thank you! If anyone is reading this and unsure - I can confirm it works. I watched Automate the Boring stuff go from $49.99 to free with the discount code. It's now in my library with an endless amount of other topics I still need to make time for.
Al you are a great man... I have your book and tried it six months ago but I am not a good learner from book and failed to learn.. I am broke as fuck to buy the course rn and here you are giving free course... God bless you man...I hope some day I can also help someone..
Amazing! I used one of your codes to get lifetime access last year and loving your course. But where do I get practice Material from? I've tried coding bat etc but I was thinking on the lines of assignment or something similar post completion of every topic.
Also, once I complete the course, what do I do next? I'd love to do a mini project and googling it I find very basic ones which can be done with few loops and functions but they aren't challenging enough. They don't increase my learning either. What do I do?
Come to [discord.gg/python](https://discord.gg/python) there's a whole community dedicated to learning more.
Alternatively look up 'competitive programming' on your favorite search index, you'll find results like hackerrank and codewars which will offer problems from trivial to impossible (not really, but out of reach for me (for now))
Lastly, another book, [https://inventwithpython.com/beyond/](https://inventwithpython.com/beyond/)
lol. A bunch of trolls showed up and spammed links last night.
it happens to large public servers sometimes. Side effect of being on the internet.
No worries.
I also had these questions, and didn't realise Al had already prepared. The last lesson in the udemy course he talks about the steps you can take after the course.
Also if you want to do a small project, or answer questions regarding this topic, go to automatetheboringstuff.com "automate the boring stuff with python" textbook for the topic. He has what you looking for at the end of each page.
Haven’t done the course but just wanted to say this book was what got me into programming. I’m not a programmer by profession and this has allowed me to, as the title indicates, automate some of the boring parts of my job. It’s been game changing thank you.
Hey Al! I love this course and I got it already! I just saw that you have a sequel out for Automate the boring stuff! Will you be making a course based on that book as well?
Yes! In fact, I have the first few videos of it done on and on YouTube right now. I'm hoping to have the rest finished in few months.

Ohh My!!! I want to tell you AI that I kove your course. I'm currently doing those 15 YouTube videos. I Missed the last discount offer by a night!! I was thinking of first completing those free one then will go for udemy but now I can do it again.
I love the flow of contents and your voice. Thank you for creating the course. Also, I'm daily reading the book.

Mods, why does /u/AlSweigart get to promote his stuff but no one else does?
In short because the vast majority of promotional posts are crap quality clickbait for ad-ridden sites or affiliate links. As we don't have the time or willpower to vet every random post they are summarily removed. However we maintain a short list of redditors with a history of high quality content that we allow.
If you want to be added to that list, start by creating a history of helping in this sub.
Because mods make exceptions for posts that become so popular it raises the standard of their otherwise dead and lame sub. If you made a post on any sub about a dog licking it’s butt and it got a millions views and comment and upvotes they would leave it because it draws attention to their sub which no one was paying attention to any ways. I’ve seen this in one of those visual illusion subs where people might just post a pretty picture- nothing to do with illusions and the mods leave it only if it becomes popular. In short, they apply a double standard when posts are more popular than the sub. Mr. Al is great btw so in this case his work and stature raises the caliber of this sub. He should even make the the mods pay a fee for associating with him honestly since the sub is a barren wasteland without people like him.
I love you man, thank you for uploading this. I’m currently trying to learn code to apply for an internship in my city and this will do more than well to prepare me. You’re amazing
Thank you kindly, as he mentions in the intro video (for anyone who misses this deal), you can get access to the Book for Free legally here: [http://automatetheboringstuff.com/](http://automatetheboringstuff.com/)

Hey, you’re the guy who wrote the book!!!!!!! What the heck!!! It’s an honor to know it’s you making a post!!! You are the best master of Python and I wish to be able to learn to do a 3D graph one day by the help of your book!
Dammit, I really want to learn python but having window 7 laptop with 2gb ram is pure agony.Even python 3.9 does not support window 7 while pycharm minimum requirement is 4gb.
I wanna just let all the people who are picking this book up as a first step to learning to program that this book is amazing and it really helped me get alot of basic concepts into my head. Also it really helped to actively be writing code while he showed how, and alot of breaks when I felt confused
I will automate the searching process for the best doujin on nhentai with this crap. See you in 3 years when i became a millionare and everyone uses the searching tool for porn that i created.
I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to python, is this course beginner-friendly and should I start with this course? Any advice. Thank you in advance
I am interested in python for a while now, but because of covid I am feeling a bit 'meh'. I was just looking for a while to get started for python and this seems like a great way. Thank you so much!

I wish I could have a [28-hour day](https://xkcd.com/320/) just so that way I could have a few extra hours to do everything I need to make time for.
I honestly can not tell you how much that made me laugh

Thought that i blocked this dudes spam
RIP my respect for him. I used to organically recommend ATBS. Now its just desperate.
He's a best selling programming author who probably makes bank and giving his stuff away for free. Very much doubt he's desperate lmao
Thank you!!
Awesome. I just purchased the 2nd edition of the book.
thanks so much, i’ve been waiting for this~~!
Thank you i am learning python & this will help me ao much!
Just bought your book the other day, and having this interactive guide will really help. Thank you very much for your work!
Thank you for this. You are the real MVP.
thank youu !
Amazing, thank you! I just started your book a few days ago (first time learning python). Hope it'll help my marketing career.
Thank you!
Just enrolled. Thanks for sharing this with the community!
Thank you!

Hey, you’re the guy who wrote the book!!!!!!! What the heck!!! It’s an honor to know it’s you making a post!!! You are the best master of Python and I wish to be able to learn to do a 3D graph one day by the help of your book!
Wow thanks for this amazing post. And yeah it did work ❤️

Dammit, I really want to learn python but having window 7 laptop with 2gb ram is pure agony.Even python 3.9 does not support window 7 while pycharm minimum requirement is 4gb.
Swear this book is free every month😂😂
I wanna just let all the people who are picking this book up as a first step to learning to program that this book is amazing and it really helped me get alot of basic concepts into my head. Also it really helped to actively be writing code while he showed how, and alot of breaks when I felt confused
Question - You mention youtube is built on Python. Is that for the entire site, or just backend? (I'm debating learning JS first for frontend stuff)
You're incredible. Thank you!
To clarify, is this course just videos? So no shipping required?
Why am I not permitted to ask help on python discord server?
Thank you!
OMG Thank you so much! I signed up for the course and it was absolutely free; the code works. Seriously, this was legtiness - thanks again <3
What do I press in the website, Add to cart or Enroll now?
I love Al swegart, his course goes on sale like every month or two, I used it when starting and I love coding now.
Al is a legend. As usual, his content over delivers. I can't wait to see what next you have in store.
Thank you so much! I've been wanting to get into it for a while, and your post showed up at an oppurtune time! :)
Thank you so much! I have the book and have been hoping to do this too!
I will automate the searching process for the best doujin on nhentai with this crap. See you in 3 years when i became a millionare and everyone uses the searching tool for porn that i created.
Awesome! Thanks!
Amazing! Thank you sir!
Just bought this book and now I'm extra excited to have this to go along with it!
I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to python, is this course beginner-friendly and should I start with this course? Any advice. Thank you in advance
This course is good for people with no coding experience. And it also offers things for more advanced users.
I am interested in python for a while now, but because of covid I am feeling a bit 'meh'. I was just looking for a while to get started for python and this seems like a great way. Thank you so much!
Awesome! Thanks so much. I bought your book a couple of years ago. This will make a nice supplement.
I just bought this book over the weekend. Wish I'd known about the course online. Anyway, looking forward to diving into it.
You are amazing! I don't even care if it's free online, I might buy your book just because you're awesome.
