Are these courses effective?
Hello! I am learning Python and Linux. I want to quickly integrate into the field and therefore I want to take additional courses. I think that everything is more structured on them than self-study. And only then I will be able to better understand and continue independent learning. I decided to take small courses on basic Python and Unix.
Can you please tell me if the training program is effective?

Read Lutz, Learnpythonthehardway, then Fluent Python. In parallel, come up with tasks for yourself. This will give much more knowledge than the course. It is not clear yet who and at what speed will read it.
There is no need to study Ellipsis in the first lecture.
For general development, of course, not bad. But here all functions except reduce are not used anymore. And reduce is used much less frequently. Hope they talk about it.
I will not say anything about the python, I do not use it. The UNIX course is a good course for a beginner "about UNIX in general". It gives some fundamental knowledge, without being tied to a specific version, distribution, and what else. True, there is little practical sense from these courses - this is precisely fundamental knowledge.
Do it in parts (steps)
1. Install the command line (at least cygwin, at least Canonical-Ubuntov bash in Windows). Further, you can not think about Linux for a while, but practice with python (take 3.5). In this interface, you need to know 5-7 commands and an editor (at least vim, at least nano).
2. The main thing is to focus on python and reach in practice independent written classes
(even if at first inheritance only from object, and then from some ancestor class
and with redefinition of ancestral methods) - then a general understanding of the language will appear and most importantly something independent practical. And Linux - then you will finish it - gradually for a different purpose .....
