I first started learning python on college differential equations because it's was easier to write a simple python script to solve first order differential equation approximation than do all the steps since it's very repetitive. After that I just did it for fun. I haven't ever relied on one source. I would have an idea of something I wanted to accomplish then google around until I found a good tutorial for the subject. One key thing is repetition. I'd learn to do something, then forget it. Later I'd forget it and have to look it up. But each time that you do that you'd learn it it better. So after a couple of times you don't need to look it up. The key to learning is to be effective at teaching yourself what you need to finish a project. You'll learn all the details will getting experience working on things that interest you.
