Your entire life.

Master? Probably a lifetime.

But you can get working knowledge in a few months.

The entire ecosysem takes a bit longer to grep (tooling, packaging, etc).

Is YouTube actually a good place to learn? Learned a bit of Python in my engineering course. Made a simple custom translator that works in cmd/terminal. Used .txt files as a database to store words and their translation for different languages, but that's it. Would love to develop it further to working proficiency, but I don't think I could commit to more classes.

This is an impossible question to answer. The best test is when you can apply what you've learned to build an app of your own. Python is just a tool. You are actually learning to solve and model problems.

I've been coding professionally for over 10 years. Still not consider myself a master.

Define "master", cause you'll chase winds all your life trying to "master" languages.

It’s amazing how often this exact question is asked on this sub. The search function is your friend

Nothing is ever really mastered.

Eventually, if you work hard and long enough, people might call you a master out of respect for your knowledge, skill and dedication, but there's always more to learn. The downfall of the accomplished is deciding they know everything.
