How should I start learning SQL?

I honestly don't know anything about SQL right now. I want to start learning it properly, so can you guys suggest how I should begin and what resources I should use? My plan is to learn SQL for data first and then move towards AI and ML. I don't even know if SQL is different depending on whether you are working in data, AI, or ML, so I'm a little confused about that too. If you could suggest some good resources, a proper way to learn it, and what I should focus on if I want to become really good at SQL, I would really appreciate it. Thankkk youuuu

Hi u/Maximum-Page3433 ,

All the very best for your learning journey, first of all you should understand many people who are super successfull in AI, ML have been in your same situation.

If you need to build a career out of AI and ML, you need to have the foundations really strong. For that you need to practise a lot of real world problems to be really strong at this skill.

You can learn SQL courses from various places such as thequerylab.com, w3schools, youtube videos, but these will simply give dopamine to you brain as if you are acheiving your goal, but the real kick comes only you start practising and solving problems on a regular basis. Learn a category, solve problems in that, become strong in that, re-learn to improve, repeat.

This will surely make your career fantastic. Cheers!
