Just be aware https://docs.python.org/3/ defaults to the latest Python version (3.10). When looking up a module, it’s best to explicitly set the documentation to the version you are using. It won’t matter the vast majority of the time but I have been burned by trying to use a function or parameter that was introduced with a later version.

I can download free copies of RHEL 7.x, 8.x, and 9.x :) Just that I dunno which RHEL version is better. Is RHEL 9.0 the best out of 7.x, 8.x and 9.x? 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. RHEL 9.0 is also quite close to the bleeding edge of Linux development. It has Linux kernel version 5.14.0. 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'! I am going to get going on learning Python with RHEL 9.0.
