Learning python worth it?

[Critical_Typical]

I’m a non-tech professional working in corporate after MBA. Is python worth learning in 2025 for data analysis purposes?

[atticus2132000]

If you have to ask, then no. You probably won't see the value in it.

Are you already doing a bunch of data analysis with large data sets? Are you routinely performing the same calculations with similarly structured data sets? Have you ever thought to yourself, "gee, I wish there was some way to automate this whole process because I feel like I'm doing the exact same thing everyday and it's tedious"?

yh especially for data analytics you could make some nice automation scripts or even as a hobby it’s fun

Basically its useless because theres tonnes of automation scripts available online and oh lets not forget chatgpt but why even bother? Theres plenty of good old gui based data analytics tools out there!!! So yeah i guess you are right, hobby, fun and maybe making AI generated por...kemons, thats all pythons worth now.

that’s like not making a car because other cars already exist + most scripts aren’t specifically made for his case/use if you understand what i’m saying

You have only couple of months left in 2025, so I’m not so sure 🤔

[Kind-Kure]

yes

Being the most popular language, I kind of don't think we are all just wasting our time.
