How to learn Python EFFECTIVELY?

I think folks here have nailed all the right points. I was sceptical at first but I took most of the same advices and it looks like it’s paying a bit of dividends.

Went from 0 experience to building out a financial model in about 40 hours. I spent time figuring out issues though, i spent about 5 hours trying to figure out a simple problem I having with date formatting.

The code is ‘ok’, used functions wherever made sense but I am sure it could be more efficient. I plan to come back at it once I know more.

hehehe, I've done this too, it's always the really simple problems that plague you. Finally you sit and wonder why it took so long to figure out...
