Python resources

This is my list of the resources i personaly use and have used to learn and develop python. this is mostly so i can find them for myself later but might have some relevance for other people. This is not a complete list but i try to keep it updated with the most useful links. If you have anything to add please create an issue with the resource you want added. But no mater what the best learning resource is practise.

Learning the language

To use python you need to know the language and there is some great resources for that avalible. most of these are avalible for free and all of them are in my mind great.
