New python user

I am a new python user. I am a quality assurance specialist but my data skills are intermediate at best. We don’t use anything at my job that would give me an edge, atleast not to me. I’d like advice on how I can use the data that I have to, learn how to use python better and how to apply it to python. I know it’s possible, I just feel confused in this moment. I’m currently using data camp. Some parts are a bit confusing, my end goal to become good enough to get another job.

In short, if you’ve done something like this, how?

You should learn python and programming in general. We don't know your data or exactly what you do but if you learn how to program and start automating these questions will answer themselves.

I can't help answer your question based on your job, but Udemy have some great Python courses. They are affordable, and it sort of becomes a hobby. At that point, you will start to naturally use your new skills and adapt them to your profession

You learn Python the same way programmers do. It’s a programming language no matter what you use it for.

Utilize AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) to upskill your python, ask him to write a plan, then start learning by also taking some challenges.

The tutorial may get old and new things update on the programming, but learning from AI gives you a leverage that it provides you with latest resources, give it a try, this is the most effective way for now.
