1- Should I learn Python 2 or Python 3?
2- How long does it take to get a job after learning Python?
3- How long does it take to learn Python?
4- What is Python used for?

Great video Kerim. I like how you didn't just generically answer these questions, and the distinctions you made. Would love to see a video from you, talking more about the 5 stages that you laid out, mainly stage 2-5. Explaining what each stage is and what knowledge one acquires during that stage, and pointing out what a programmer that reached that stage can do as a software developer compared to one that didn't.

Anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months. It's quite simple once you get your head around it and it's a very good programming language to learn. Right now. I genuinely wouldn't even try to learn python 2. Defo go for python 3. "Job opportunities aren't limited by the languages you know" couldn't have said it better myself. There are roles for all languages and simply being a good PROGRAMMER and not a good python programmer will be the deciding factor. Get into the problem solving mindset and not the programming mindset

@henriqueb5637 Жыл бұрын

The thing about job opportunities not being limited to the language really gave me a motivation boost I’m still a bit skeptical about getting an internship or a job in a small company knowing only level 0 and 1. Do you think that is really possible? Without a degree?

@@dinkudamor8475 you will need not more than 20 hours to study the necessary concepts first hand to learn the Python programming language if you spread out the learning over 30 days. Just after 7 days you can start practising DS. You will have to sharpen your axe before cutting the tree, just make a plan and you can be hands on with necessary language features by heart. If you consider solving 4 DS&Algo problem/day after first week you will be hands-on with atleast 80 problems which is enough for entry level coding interview. I would say 4hours daily for 30 days where 1 hour is for studying new concept 2 hour is for practice coding and 1 hour is for revision will make one good candidate for entry level Python programmer.

I was in the British Army for 8 and a half years (sf 3 of those years) now have been a carpenter specializing in finish carpentry for 3 years. Loved time in the military overall and still enjoy carpentry and building now, but I’ve just started learning Python after getting curious about how programming works when I was bored one day and going down a rabbit hole of information and finding it fascinating. Hoping to learn Python well then learn other languages and look for a job in programming. I’m 30 but my back and knees feel 50 with my previous jobs and certain injuries I’ve picked up over the years and I owe it to my body to do something where I can sit down a bit more, from what I’ve seen the money is nice but honestly I just enjoy learning new stuff every time I sit down at the computer! Looking forward to my programming journey!

@xzex2609 Жыл бұрын

I am 50 and I learn programming too , although i have a master degree in computer and I was a programmer for my whole life , when I take some time away , the world didn't stop at where I was . the only thing that this job is taking is the fascination , you are in it for your whole life. so if you love it it is very fun , I see programming as a very fun game that is very hard to learn how to play it, and every project you have the fun of playing that game. like a very complex chess
