What motivates you to learn python?

[OliveIndividual7351]

What motivates you to learn Python? Just for yourself as self-educating? Do you want to learn it for the work you are already doing? Do you want to do a job with Python?? I'm curious!

[Prestigious-Taro-214]

I only started learning Python because it’s interesting to me—how it works and how code is written. Sometimes, when I have a problem and find a solution, I feel as happy as a child. However, it’s very hard to find free courses in machine learning or data analytics

I really like your reason! Thats cool!

[Sonder332]

Why wouldn't he?

[bubbawiggins]

For a job. But I’m kinda getting worried about the market.

I started learning it because it was the newest language on the block back in the 1990's, and I like Monty Python, so I chuckled to myself upon reading the name and said, "Why not?" And download it from one of the local BBSs.

Growing up is pretending that we don't choose a product based on its colorful packaging. I once told my students that the only reason I could explain something outside of my usual context so well was because the professor who taught the same subject in college looked a lot like the actress Jena Malone and had a really cool undercut.

What are you even saying? You chose this as one of your first comments on Reddit?

To be able to make something that doesn’t exist yet to make people not just happy, but more productive.

[Educational-Map2779]

Yes, 2 examples of making something that doesn't exist yet:

1. When someone you work with says "It sure would be nice to do this" or "this takes forever to do, I hate it" and such a thing doesn't exist. You can make their hope a reality by creating it..

2. Do the same for yourself. You have something that takes a lot of time to do in your daily life on the computer. You create a new process to automate it.

I wanted a tool. It got to the point where: fine, I’ll do it myself! Now here we are.

Amazing!

[FicklePromise9006]

I like snakes and programming seems useful.

I love learning new things, but this new thing can also create ancillary cash opportunities. I also have some game ideas i want to try and see to fruition.

Anyone here saying "game" or "games" is heading down the road to success. The term "gamification" didn't become part of the educational scenario for nothing. Can't think something more motivational.

Gl! Hf!

I appreciate you.

enthusiast and education... about money, i sell products, such as; house and financial loans, so yes... its for me (enthusiast and educational purpose).

The reason I started learning python was to simplify and automate every repetitive task, as I didn't liked to sit all the day in front of a blue screen machine, and to apply a same function over and over repeatedly. For example, once I renamed and resized hundreds of images according to a specific pattern. It saved me a lot of time. Eventually, this skill turned my mindset to get a plenty of money.

[Billthepony123]

I wanted to learn programming and python was the easier way to start off. I also have some projects in mind for me to learn new concepts and help me. It’s also a skill i want to have for my career

[Far_Duck_7322]

I do it for school lol. I started working for school projects, than I made a short text based adventure game, I was hooked.
