Python is used in different fields such as web development, Data Science, Big Data, App Development, and Machine Learning. It may take 4-5 months to learn Python by spending a minimum of 4 hours every day for a beginner.
First, start with learning the basics of Python such as:
- Functions
- Control structures (for loops, while loops, and if-else statements)
- Data types (Strings, Lists, Tuples, Dictionaries)
- Object-oriented programming (object, class, constructor, methods)
After getting familiar with basics, then learn the following essential Python libraries:
- Pandas – for Data Cleaning, data manipulation, data analysis
- NumPy – for Numerical computations and managing multi-dimensional arrays
- SciPy – for linear algebra computations
- Matplotlib and Seaborn – for data visualization
