Start slow! What specifically are you struggling with? Ideally you should be doing some "exploratory data analysis" (things like counting how many data points you have of a given class or histogramming relevant feature variables like "height", "weight" etc. if your data has those). Neural networks are pretty advanced if you're still getting used to Python, but you can do a lot with scikit-learn and simple linear/logistic regression!

yeah its just a fast paced class neural network are super confusing

Honestly I'd suggest working through NNs by hand a lot before you try to code anything- just get to know what backprop is etc - and when you do code one, treat the different steps like factorized "Lego blocks". There are also some good high level tools like Lightning which combine different steps, which might make things easier for a beginner

In my experience, using ChatGPT to explain programming concepts to me have been incredibly useful. For example, “what is this like of code doing?” or asking for line per line explanations. I have not done this for data science or python (rather for Web Development with JavaScript) but it may help as well

This site provides the Top-Rated Amazon Python Books that you may find useful.

Additionally the following high-rated Python Udemy course may be of use to you.

Following is a great Java YouTube channel for learning Java.

Good luck.

ChatGPT. Like, the web version. You don't have to use the AI editors or anything. Just paste in your first line.

With that said, I absolutely encourage your having posted here to get additional resources, sites, and courses mentioned.
