@@raktimdas2428 pandas isnt hard if you already know python, you just need to know the basics and just an idea of what is possible with it. Its a huge library so you wont know it all but thats what the docs are for. Sql itself is pretty straightforward if you already know excel, databases are just a bunch of tables most of it is common sense but the terminology makes it look hard, like if you need data from 2 tables obviously you have to join/combine tables or columns from those tables.
