Laptop recommendation for programming

[navin.rai]

Hey everyone

Looking for advice on a laptop. Trying to teach myself programming in Python & r. Looking for a powerful enough laptop to make the experience buttery smooth.

Hoping to spend around $2000. Am in Canada, so that's Canadian dollars. Besides performance, smaller and lighter is better.

Any recommendation? Thanks a lot!

Programming doesn't require you to have an expensive laptop. Python is a bad choice for a programming language.

You could try the Asus R541UJ.
Get the one with the 8Gb RAM and 1Tb SSD.
This laptop will be suffiecient for a few other basic tasks beside Python.

Hope I helped, Theuns
