If you are learning to code, chances are you might be learning Python. What are some ways that you are able to learn Python effectively and efficiently? Arguably, one of the best ways to learn a programming language is by practicing projects that have real world applications. By working on real projects, you’ll be able to analyze the problem and come up with your own code solution. It’s also a great way to build up your portfolio!
