Learning Python

#beginners #python

Hey to you all.

I'm actually just taking my chances with this post.

I recently bought a Udemy python course. Previous I had enrolled for a EdX course which only covered basics of python. Somehow though I feel stuck and can't seem to crack into a specific mindset which will help me grasp everything better.

I have even resorted to checking out python references and methods on W3 just to try a different way to grasp all this. I don't know what to do. I have 3 weeks to try and get somewhere with this language before the world gets back to its fast paced life.

Does anyone have any suggests? 🙏

Hey! Welcome and glad you are interested in Python. Here are some resources/concepts I have found helpful over the years:

Datacamp for learning Python
Books! O'Reilly is a publisher with great resources, take a look at the many books they offer and see if one is of interest to you
Reading through Python code on Github that others have created to understand what they have done, how they structure their code, and get a better understanding of how to read through code
Find a project that interests you and start to figure out how you would code it (pseudocode) as you learn more about the language
Read through Python Docs, especially on Data Structures

I hope some of those are helpful as you continue to work on learning Python.

Thanks 🙏

I had bumped into BootCamp and loved their way of teaching but was still thinking about whether to commit to their paid subscription or not.

I have a project in mind so I'll definitely be on the look out for such. Will check out GitHub. 😉
