I wouldn't say any particular Linux distribution is appreciably better
for Python development than another. I would suggest using a version of
a Linux distribution that supports a recent Python release (e.g. 3.9 or
3.10).

Good day from Singapore,

May I know which linux distro is more conducive for learning the
Python programming language?

Since I have absolutely and totally FREE RHEL developer subscription
(I don't need to spend a single cent), can I use Red Hat Enterprise
Linux version 9.0 to learn Python?

Is it the most popular linux distro for learning Python?

I just want to know which linux distro and version is more conducive
for learning Python. Because there are thousands of linux distros out
there. And I just want to settle down on a particular linux distro
and
version.

Thank you.

As a Python-learner (there's no comment about current programming
expertise), it is unlikely to make any difference which Linux distro is
used.

Answers to such open-ended questions are usually seated in bias - which
in-turn is mostly likely to be the same answer as 'which is the Linux
distro *I* use?
(I've used a number, with Python, over the years)

The better alignment is to match the version of Python with the book or
course you are using as learning-materials. That way, there are unlikely
to be surprises.

There are differences in Python implementations between Linux, Mac, and Windows. However, I can't think of a book or course which spends any
time discussing them, or having a chapter which demands one or other OpSys.

When you become more experienced two things will happen: firstly you
will start using tools which enable the use of different versions of
Python for different dev.projects; and secondly you will form your own
opinions of "best"!
(it's not difficult to change distro)

The best one would be whatever you happen to have installed and for
which you understand system administration. Beyond that, distribution
choice matters very little. Every distribution I've used ships python3 packages, which was fine for learning the language.

Ah, if you're familiar with Redhat (RPM) based distributions, consider
Fedora as you will have access to newer versions sooner.

If you're more familiar with Debian (DEB) based distributions, consider Ubuntu, again, as the new version release cycle is twice a year.

(Also, my apologies -- I meant to CC the list but failed to do so.)

I am actually quite familiar with many linux distros. I am familiar
with RPM-based linux distros as well as DEB-based linux distros.

RedHat is a stable OpSys. Accordingly, it doesn't much matter which
version. The general assumption is that the more recent distribution has
more advanced facilities, eg improved security features in RHEL9.

As another post says, Fedora is closer to the bleeding-edge of Linux development.

Be aware that there are many methods of adding Python. For example, if
your training is based on the Anaconda [Python] distribution, then it is irrelevant which version of Python comes with the Linux distro. As
mentioned before, if you advance to developing in [Python] virtual environments, then each of these could run a different version of
Python. Similarly, using a VM...

The question is relatively minor. More important to 'get going'!

Except that real programmers use Python 1.52 because they depend on the assumption that integers are native word size and arithmatic is done modulo-maxunsigned the same way it is in assembly language...

Honestly, back when I was implementing netowrk protocols in Python on

To be clear, the discussion strikes me oddly.

You can learn python without a computer. Of course to actually have people write code and try it out is another story.

Python by itself is simply a program that can be typed into an interpreter
or given a file to process and works just as well on LINUX, Windows and so
on. I have half a dozen varieties on my machine from various modes/distributions.

As some have pointed out, any RECENT version of python (presumably the 3 version unless your goal is to teach the older version) should be fine for teaching but obviously all kinds of tools can help. But there are online resources that may be adequate that require NOTHING but a browser:

https://py3.codeskulptor.org/

The above URL allows you to create and run and save python files and is probably adequate for teaching basics and for sharing programs others have saved by sending you the URL.

Of course, beyond a certain point, it fails to meet needs such as not supporting importing random modules.

But as was discussed here before, you can find little time to teach python
if you also have to teach every environment and editor and especially handle students using other choices. But to ask everyone to use the same LINUX distribution may also be a drastic step.

The reality is that simple python programs can be handled with any standard text editor. Sure, lots of bells and whistles can be added and there may
well be advantages to using systems ranging from anaconda to lately RSTUDIO but they often come with many superfluous features and lots of complexity.
