Are you Down To Learn Python?

ArcGIS and Python

The license to get ArcGIS is a ridiculous price, however this shit it powerful and lucrative!

I had the privilege to work with ArcGIS for about two years. There are a lot of jobs and careers available that are looking for people knows this software.

Take a moment and look over it.

Thanks for this but if it's not open source I have to take a hard pass.
QGIS, GrassGIS, PostGIS and SAGA GIS are open source so I might take a look at that technology.

I was introduced to the ArcGIS before the open source versions.

Open source gives you great practice, but none are really comparable to the paid version, imo.

The paid version is so powerful, but I got that license through my university. So once I was done with school I was unable to renew it.

I haven't messed with it since, but this thread reminded me of it because I was using python with it.

Understood.
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation have been busy behind the scene.

My two cents:

. use a linux based OS for your development
. Install emacs and use it as your go to editor for all your python development
. with emacs, make sure you map your CAPS key to CTRL (thank me later)
. with emacs, install elpy-mode and flycheck-mode

Happy coding.

Let's go to war!

It's all about Vim!:yes:

:lol:
 
Thanks for this

My peeps say this has been the long term winner.



But learn Go as fast as you can.
Why learn Go over C++?

By default the linker automatically compiles in the runtime code and creates a static binary. Depending on what your are working on, I can see space running out real quick with redundant libraries that should be reused to save space.

But it's nice to learn any language.

I do mostly front end web and mobile. I've networked with a few backend developers and asked for recommendations on a backend language other than node. They all mentioned Go. I haven't gotten into the nuts and bolts of it but apparently there is a push in Enterprise for it because it's faster, more efficient...etc. Apparently, demand is far above supply and knowing it pays well and is on the upswing.

Sounds good. I just installed the Go language compiler but I'm locked onto Python right now. I'll peep it out next.
Thanks
 
I'm away from my computer at the moment. Looks like GitHub took down the official repository. However, a quick scroll through and this one looks legit. Again, use caution.

thanks, just started with a Youtube for python
 
Im currently learning Python on Datacamp.com
I just completed the Introduction to Python and received my completion cert for that one.
I am now on Intermediate Python. Then on to Python for Data Science 1 and 2.

Then on to the R Programming then SQL Programming courses.

https://www.datacamp.com/ :cheers:

Thanks Master fard Muhammad who is almighty God Allah in Person

I just completed that Introduction to R certification at datacamp.com :dance:

Now on to the Introduction to SQL. :)

Still working on that Intermediate Python Cert. That shit is no joke! :smh:

If you want to get serious about it, you can become ceritfied:
https://pythoninstitute.org/certification/pcap-certification-associate/

They have free resources for you to study for your certification right on that website. I highly recommend you take the certification course even if you don't get certified. I have taken several online courses and read supposedly the best book on Python and the certification course has been, by far, the best of all of them.

... You have given me a new path, my friend. I shall not stray from it. Respect. :wepraise:

What courses have you taken? please post the links
What is the name of the book on python you have read?
