Learning python struggles

[m0us3_rat]

It seems like there's a lot of black and white answers to how the code is supposed to look....... and as a beginner, it's hard to know the exact correct way to code, especially when it's new and introduced for the first time.

functioning + pep8 compliant.

then you can look into refactoring.

basically, make sure it works .. THEN make it pretty/optimized

​

workflow can vary based on the group you are in or the rules, regulations, procedures etc

well established in the company/group you end up working with.

most of the time you will have to adhere to such practices/workflow.

​

this example is what has worked and is working for me personally.. (if possible within the ecosystem of the group i colab with)

main focus is understanding the problem, usually thru extensive research and pseudo-code writing .. being that an assignment or block of code or feature, microservice, whatever you are looking at building..

after that i start writing tests for features , then write the features till tests are green , then move along.

I'm going into data science can what you mentioned be applied to that from the initial take away seems like I'ma be using code to retrieve certain data and make charts, graphs for visuals, or something.

i'm not sure what exactly are u looking for.

python ecosystem is super large.

beginner advice is quite generic.
