I'm Learning Python

avatar

It's happening.
Now is the time.
The time is now.

If I teach one more piano lesson I will lose my mind.
I think I've already lost my mind.
So, how am I going to learn Python if I don't have a mind?
I don't know.

I DON'T KNOW

Yesterday I had the realization that I need to change careers for the sake of my sanity.
I have a Bachelor in Liberal Arts which pretty much means that I can make minimum wage if I try to get another job other than teaching.
So, I must learn a new skill.

The Shane thinks I will be good at coding since I have OCD as well as the ability to intensely focus on something to the point of a meditative state.
However, I am concerned with my inability to troubleshoot something without becoming frustrated.
When something goes wrong on my computer my instinct is to immediately throw it out the window.
So, I will need to work on this...

I'm starting off with an online beginner course in Python.
The Shane also threw his Python Crash Course book at my head and told me to start learning.

I'm excited to eventually learn AI programming and how to build a neural network, but ... one step at a time.

We shall see how it goes.
Last night I downloaded Anaconda and the Jupyter notebook so I'm ready to start....

I am scared and nervous.

Yes I teach piano on the side. Plus, I play organ and perform regularly so my time is very precious!

Best of luck!

You'll love it!
Python is something I did for living back in the day and it was actually kind of fun. If you like puzzles and the such!

I learned some of the basics from Python. When you learn how to make games it can be kind of fun. Nothing wrong with switching gears. All you need is determination and a supportive person to keep you motivated along the way.

You got this! Python is a great language to learn - it's always my "go to" when I need to do something programming-wise and I have a choice of languages.

Big Data is one of the things on my list too!
