Microsoft: We want you to learn Python programming language for free

Microsoft has launched a new 44-part series called Python for Beginners on YouTube, consisting of three- to four-minute lessons from two self-described geeks at Microsoft who love programming and teaching in YouTube or  Channel9

The Python for Beginners series is presented by Christopher Harrison, a senior program manager at Microsoft, and Susan Ibach, a business development manager from Microsoft's AI Gaming unit. 

Microsoft has published a page on GitHub containing additional resources, including slides and code samples to help students become better at Python. 

The Developers have a option to interface with machine-learning frameworks like Google-developed TensorFlow, and the Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (CNTK).

PyRobot - Python for Robotics

PyRobot is a Python package for benchmarking and running experiments in robot learning. The goal of this project is to abstract away the low-level controls for individual robots from the high-level motion generation and learning in an easy-to-use way. Using PyRobot will allow you to run robots without having to deal with the robot specific software along with enabling better comparisons.
