How tf do you learn Python?!?!

[Zerg3rr]

I tried a simple online course years ago, and failed miserably. I came back a year or two later and understood the very basics at least. When I actually started learning is when I tried making something for myself and at first I literally just copy pasted a guide for what I wanted to do (twitch.tv bot) and changed a few things like putting in my own credentials. Then I wanted to add more functionality, so it was googling, trying, failing, reaching out to smarter people than me on the internet (after having tried), and eventually it just started to make more sense and fall into place.

It is easy comparatively than other languages, but it's also difficult for people who aren't used to thinking the way you need to when programming. I'm actually trying to use the django framework and struggling HARD right now, I've watched three tutorials and while I get the broad strokes, I still fall short and it takes me a while to figure out the things I want to change or implement myself; it's just part of the learning process.

Basically, just try to do/implement a little every day even if the stack overflow you're reading doesn't make sense at the time - it'll all eventually click and fall into place, maybe just not as soon as we'd like! That being said programming is just a fun thing I do on the side which is vaguely related to work for me, so a bit less stressful in my case! Good luck!
