If you are inclined towards becoming a Machine Learning Engineer then you must start with Python Programming for Machine Learning. Python is the easiest to learn a language that helps in writing short and efficient codes for Machine Learning models. Apart from programming, you must be good at mathematics (especially Statistics, Probability, and Calculus).
After learning Python, you must start learning Machine Learning Algorithms that are used to build Machine Learning models. Also, if you are good at Machine Learning Algorithms, you sure will be able to crack a few Machine Learning Interview Questions.
