Python bundle
Those do not seem useful for a total beginner.
If you wish to learn programming, you should learn programming first, and then decide if books are the right format for you to continue learning.
Personal opinion; all the information you need to learn all of these topics is available online for free. Will the books give a better / more structured overview? Maybe. Maybe not.

In my experience and personal opinion, Udemy Courses have the best teaching material. And there's always a 90% sale on courses. Youtube isn't bad either, but you don't have the support and level of professionality that Udemy brings to the table.

yeah, as the other users said, I really think this isn't suited for beginners so I'd save some money investing on something else =)

I took a brief look at the Tier 1 books..
Introducing Python:
The Hitchhiker's Guide to Python:
Elegant SciPy:
Natural Language Processing with Python:
So in my opinion at least the first tier alone is not really worth it, unless you're interested in SciPy.

About Tier 2 books..
Think Python:
Think Bayes:
Python Data Science Handbook:
Thoughtful Machine Learning with Python:
If you're interested in "data science", it's probably worth it, though the inclusion of the free books is a bad choice.
EDIT: Wait a minute, all of these are FREE to read online...

Will comment on Tier 3 books tomorrow.
EDIT:
Fluent Python:
Web Scraping with Python:
Test-Driven Development with Python:
Flask Web Development:
Twisted Network Programming Essentials:
I'd say with Tier 3 it's not a horrible deal for $15, but the good books are not aimed at beginners.

Since there isn't a " like" button I decided to click the blue heart button instead :)

Hello all,
I consider buying the python bundle. I am a total beginner.
Is it worth?
Is it useful ?
