Python Course for HF

Any suggestions for best online course to learn python? I was considering Code Academy and Udemy. Code Academy seems to be the more popular choice, but Udemy has a course that relates specifically to finance and investing. Open to other suggestions as well. Thanks!

While not married to a particular HF strategy the goal right now would definitely be L/S Equity or Global-Macro. I’m going to be IB SA at a global M&A bank. What other skills would L/S funds look for if not coding? Thanks for your reply.

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
