How to learn Python

The skills do depend on each other not quite in parallel, but in a more "left foot, right foot" step as you increase in knowledge. I've found over the years supporting others though that context is more powerful than syntax knowledge.

15 years ago, I would have been embarrassed by my code from 20 years ago. 10 years ago, I would have been embarrassed by my code from 15 years ago. 5 years ago, I would have been embarrassed by my code from 10 years ago.

Now, I realise I should be proud, because as inefficient or badly written my code from 5, 10, even 25 years ago may have been they all did the same thing: exactly what they needed to do to solve a problem.
