I want start with python but I don’t know what operating system and tools to use. I have a 6 RAM icore3 180 GB hard disk Notebook laptop running Linux mint. I plan to save up to Buy a PC in the future but for I have to make due my old laptop

I am also wondering how does the programming market look like in terms of operating system. Does it matter which operating system you use? In terms of programming institutions (universities bootcamps, etc…), do each institutions have its own preference or does it let its student choose?

    Linux (because Unix was originally created for programmers), and C because so many other languages derive from it.

    Learn the language (types, functions, how to set up a project, etc), then learn the library (you can use the man pages from Linux).

    You can use this knowledge for Python, as Python uses the library too, under the hood.
