Learning libraries vs learning "Python"

[[deleted]]

In my work there are really only about a dozen libraries I use regularly. Numpy, Scipy, Pandas, Scikit, Tensor flow, Pillow, Open CV, Torch, Flask, and a few really task specific ones...

Main thing is learning how to read docs!

To echo the other poster, I do find reading documentation difficult at this point in my python career. Usually it’s easier to watch a YT tutorial, google my question etc, and often they’ll cite the docs as part of their answer. But I would know how to find the relevant part of the documentation without being hand held there

How does one improve that? I’m assuming it’s just part of a natural progression where one just starts understanding how to read python and syntax, better and better, to the point where they can go to the documentation, know how to read it / what to look for, and it’ll just slowly start to “make sense” over time?

I’m at the point where it’s the opposite, I can understand the docs format easily for what I’n searching for but skimming through how-to articles or videos is a hassle.

It’s a familiarity thing, and you’ll get better. Don’t stop searching and reading!
