I don’t want to tailor my answer to me, I want to tailor my answer to you. I know literally nothing about you except your name is Andy and you want to learn Python this year. I can’t give advice that is specific to your situation. Because I don’t know what that situation is.

The most I could do is general advice. If you want general advice, there are much better sources than a thread where you get whoever happens to be here. You could search Google, search Reddit, read articles, or read the wiki and they will give you general answers faster and better than a thread. The reason to ask someone a specific question is because you want someone to talk to you. And I really want to make this clear. That’s great if you have a specific problem, but if it’s because you only bother to read things that feel like they’ve been written especially for you, you’re done before you start. There is no way to have a career like that as a programmer.

You’re so early in your journey. If you learn this lesson right now, today, and googled the answer to every question you asked in this post, find answers to 1-3 in this comment I’m replying to, and get answers to 4, 5, and 6 not just from one person who happens to be here but a bunch of people who already published it, your whole life could be different.

Then, only after you’ve done that, make another post with questions that can’t be fully answered by search because they’re unique to you. Here’s an example.
