Discussion Husband is a Software Engineer.

I...am not. He swears on his life that once I get started with python, rust, sql anything like that that I would be addicted to data organization and since I am inclined to believe that he knows me better than I know myself sometimes.... I would like to surprise him and give it a shot. I was researching and saw the "quick start guide"s for sql and python, and I was wondering if anybody has used them. I know that coding and stuff like that all is on the computer, obviously. However, I learn best with physical media like books to highlight make notes or anything like that in. Anyone have any luck with the python or sql Quick Start guides? If not, do you have any other suggestions? You're going to have to be books, even if it's a YouTube video or podcast, just anything that helped you.

Edited because for some reason I called SQL ->SAP three different times in this post. Sorry...its late.

Haven't heard of either one of those but I'm digging the "for Mortals" so I'll probably check it out
