Start Your Python Learning Here
Python Resources for Learning Basic Concepts:
- Types, Loops, and Conditionals
- Functions and Classes
- Common Python Syntax Errors and Solutions (also gets advanced)
Learn Python for Basic Data Structures:
- Stacks, Queues, and Dequeues
- Stacks, queues, and dequeues are basic data structures of computer science
- Stacks are like decks of cards, queues are like checkout lines, and dequeues are like checkout lines where people in the back may leave
- Linked Lists and Binary Search Trees
- Linked lists are lists where each entry in the list points to the next one (and the one before in doubly linked lists)
- Binary search trees are “trees” where each entry in the tree has a left and a right child, in a search tree the left child is less than the root and the right child is greater than the root
Once you’ve covered the basics, we can get into more advanced topics in Algorithms and Data Structures:
- Most common sorting algorithms
- Algorithms and Data Structures: Graph Traversals
- Data Structures and Algorithms: Recursive Tree Traversals
After learning the basic concepts, the easiest way to learn Python is to build projects like the ones below. Building projects won’t just help you learn Python, but also software engineering. Also check out the section on Machine Learning.
