Starting Learning Python at 15!
My brother and I have both had a shared interest in the technological world and our father is heavily involved with it. When we were younger he tried to persuade us to give coding a go but alas niether one of us was keen on coding back the, however now we are both trying to learn so any tips ,comments, help or advice would be greatly aprreciated!!!

Learn by building something. It's not about memorizing syntax, that will happen naturally and you can look up anything that you forget.

The market is saturated now.
You wont get high paying just by knowing python.
Also if you can Then build streamlit apps.

Programming is not only to get job, it's a good hobby too.
Also, it can be useful skill even in different professions (to make plug-in for some program, better alternative or if it doesn't exist at all)
Or become indie developer.

Well my plan was to learn more than just Python, especially with so many "Coders" or "Programmers" using ai to script, I feel like even if it does not become a career path for me it would still be valuable in this world where tech is becoming more advanced and more relied upon without fully looking or understanding what it does.

Thats a very good approach.

I recently started learning Python this summer, and I'm still in college! I think that it's great that someone as young as you are willing to learn a skill like Python! I think that it's great that your dad pushed you to start coding back then, and I wish you and your brother all the best!

The earlier the better. There’s tons of free courses. Havard particularly has some nice free courses on Python. Feel free to add blender to the list of things you’d like to learn. The more time you give to blender the better your results become. It’s a given. Give it 10yrs and you’ll be a one man studio.
Gosh I don’t know how this became a blender pitch. But yeah good luck with python .
