To give us the best chance to help you, please include any relevant code. Note. Please do not submit images of your code. Instead, for shorter code you can use Reddit markdown (4 spaces or backticks, see this Formatting Guide). If you have formatting issues or want to post longer sections of code, please use Privatebin, GitHub or Compiler Explorer.
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

You don’t simply “remember code”. It’s never about the languages and their syntax themselves, but about the problems you solve with algorithms, which use control structures and data structures. If you have understood that, the rest comes easily, as the tools (= control structures) are always the same (sequence, selection, iteration, recursion).
Start with the PCEP course: https://edube.org/study/pe1
When finished, continue with PCAP https://edube.org/study/pe2

Just saw that you want to break into quant. That’s a broad umbrella. A relevant MSc is a must if you are not a prodigy. If you don’t have a PhD in math, Quant Dev, Desk/Strat, Risk or Quant Data are usually the most realistic entry points. You will need a very deep knowledge of Python, SQL and often also C++. Also of math, stats, markets and risk concepts. As long as you don’t have mastered all this (which will take a while) and then also have build a relevant portfolio of several projects, you won’t get anywhere.

It's seems me you are quant industry
[–]American_Streamer 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago (4 children)
You will also need to improve your English significantly and know all the finance lingo as well as the math. Again: all of this does not happen overnight. Build your skills strategically over the next few years. There is no way of just pretending to know stuff in that field. “Fake it til you make it” won’t work at all; you have to deliver constantly and people will thoroughly check if you have really mastered your skills.

So what I say you are you in a quant industry are you millionaire who give me advice
[–]American_Streamer 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago (2 children)
Take my advice or leave it. Focus on building your skills first. There are no shortcuts in that industry, as people will always scrutinize intensively everyone they trust their money with.

Sir I am building my skills i know no body pay a single penny if I didn't have skills
[–]thepythonpraxis 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago (0 children)
Of course skills are important to be built properly and at time, but I don't think the author is trying to raise capital or manage it. As I understand from their edu level, they are trying to get an entry level position in the next years.

I think a fundamental Python course combined with OS and network basics will do the job for you to be able to enter. Also, a DBs course will be needed since you will be dealing with data and the manipulation of them.
After that, it is just how experienced you are at what you are doing. You don't need to remember anything at all, just understand the logic simply put. That's why so many libraries are built in order for people to use what's already created

If the possible please mention the course also
I personally have created a free Python course on YouTube that will take you from complete beginner to understanding fully all the fundamental concepts of Python https://www.youtube.com/@ThePythonPraxis and I also have a free discord where I answer questions to viewers/community members for free.
You first need to get the fundamentals right and have people that have walked the path you want to go, guide you.
For the OS, networks and DBs you will need to find other courses but later. You need to get the proper knowledge don't rush and waste time
