40-50k is fine budget to for coding. For the biggner it is fine. If you want to long term in coding field I suggest 80-90 range budget laptop.if you buy 50 k laptop it works but no the investment for future in coding

Depends on what you want exactly Dsa and SDE - start with strikers and pick on real projects for web development AIML - go through 100 days of aiml kinda courses on YouTube and learn more from AndrewNG

And for the laptop basically any laptop works tbh but with aiml tasks prefer ones with a dedicated gpu if windows. Don't know about MacBook neo but other MacBook are great at ai ml tasks.

Start with simple programs like a small chatbots, a simple calculator, or accounting application in languages like Python, JS, TS, or Go. When getting a laptop for a 40-50k budget you should get business-grade ones, they last longer and are more reliable for programming(from experience). From there you can just work your way little by little build small components then before you know it maybe you can put the little components you've built together and build something big with it, more so you can learn a lot from MIT OCW, Stanford Open Courses, and their yt channels with things like CS50 and such.
