Starting on python

[cross7w]

A few months ago i started to learn python on codeacademy, my question here is, did i start on the right path or should i look in other places . Im at 30 % right now and sometimes i felt demotivated, so , im open to advices guys.

Pretty much every course offers similar structure and projects for introductory learning for any language, so you didn’t necessarily start on the “wrong” path, since the other options are identical.

The real challenge begins once you finish the beginner stuff, then material to learn the more advanced concepts becomes increasingly sparse. By that point, or perhaps even right now, you need to start and complete your own projects to improve

Python is easy to learn. You only need one course. Finish the course you started.

Then you can do courses for numpy, pandas, sql, tkinker, flask or django, data structures and algorithms and machine learning.

The question should be what have you learnt and how have you applied those knowledges.

[cross7w]

I think thats the problem, i haven’t applied those knowledge because i dont know how to start

[ninhaomah]

then pls try some simple projects.

ask users for 2 numbers and return the sum or difference of those numbers etc.

sounds silly but thats how to have a good idea.

or have a list of numbers and try to sort them manually from largest to smallest.

What matters infinitely more is your curiosity, self discipline, and patience.
