This my seem like spam or advertising but I am dead serious. One of the best places to learn Javascript (or Python/Ruby if you like) is <a href="https://www.codecademy.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Learn to Code - for Free | Codecademy</a>

You learn by typing in code and see how you are doing, instantly.

Some of you might already know about it but I recommend anyone interested to learn to join the site and start coding. You get badges for completing courses and there are more than 100 course questions to practice.

It's not available for PHP, C, C++ yet but there will be other similar website that will guide you to code on the webpage.

Already been there. It is a wonderful initiative. CEans learning Python should immediately take advantage of that site.
It seems more users of the site requested for Python after Javascript as it goes nicely as a server-side backend to what many users have learned with JavaScript.
I would loved to see PHP there soon.

Do we have any active users of CodeAcademy here?

Not sure if we have many. There might be some students who have taken part. I have finished first few lessons of Javascript.

Yea, PHP should be there too but problem is that it's a purely server side scripting language and has to be loaded in. Python was built to run stand alone, and isn't a server side scripting language by design.

You would need to create a compiler on Java/JS to decode PHP.

I am doing python from there and voila! , left with 1 session more. Then on i am planning to move on with udemy.com . I have already done few lessons there adn it is more sort of learning by repetition, but nevertheless willing to finsh udemy course as well.

#-Link-Snipped-# , very right. udemy is cool and I remember them charging a merge 2 $ for the course of python.

Seems code academy is introducing newer lessons for python and beta testing is on. I had issues with few lessons there with the online intrepretuer. it would'nt just run the code. I hope the issue is now fixed.

note to Big K : please enable us to tag short forms of names . like xHx for xheveanlyx.
