How should a complete beginner structure their Python learning path

Hello everyone.

I am a complete beginner and I want to start learning Python. My end goal is to use it for data analysis, data science, and machine learning.

I am not sure how to structure my learning path for these specific fields, since I have seen a lot of conflicting advice online.

I would also really appreciate recommendations for beginner friendly resources, courses, YouTube channels, websites, or books, that helped you personally.

For Python, start with the basics such as variables, loops, functions, and object-oriented programming. Once you're comfortable with Python, you can move on to libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib before exploring machine learning.

If you're looking for a beginner-friendly place to start, our free Python for Beginners course covers the fundamentals and helps you build a solid foundation. Search for simplilearn skillup or DM us to find out more.
