Introduction
Welcome to Python ! This section will teach you the
basics of the Python programming language, a language that is used by millions
of people around the world!
For anyone who is learning to code for the first time, this is an excellent
language to start with because the grammar and syntax is relatively intuitive.
The online material is meant to supplement the actual Alexa skill, which

Installation
There exist many excellent resources for playing around with Python without
having to even download it. One that I would recommend is
trinket.io.
If you wish to download Python on your computer, I would recommend installing
Miniconda. In addition to giving you a fully
functional Python installation, it also gives you a package manager for updating
your installation very quickly if you intend to use the language long term for
purposes beyond this tutorial.
There are a bunch of other benefits, but I won’t elaborate on them here and
leave you to discover as you continue your journey with Python. :)
