How can I learn Python in my own time, informally?

I find that the best way to learn something is to think of something I want to do, then figure out how to do it. Course exercises can be useful, but I find I learn more if I end up with some useful code.

This might be a controversial idea ...

Buy a book. Read it.

Something like this:

But, I said I wanted to learn it on my phone or a tablet.  I don't want to read a book.  I don't like reading books.  I can't concentrate reading a book.  I need to have the light on at night (whilst my partner is sleeping next to me) to read a book.  I don't want to read a book.  Thanks.

You can get the Kindle edition, which is cheaper anyway (you don't need a Kindle device, you can download the Kindle app from your regular app store for free).

He's a very good teacher.

I also suggest you look at Google colab so you can write your python code from your phone or tablet.

There are lots of fascinating projects using the humble Raspberry Pi. Many of these use Python code.
You don’t need a monitor and keyboard, you can SSH to a Pi with command line commands from a Windows PC on the same network.
