I’m at work in a slow moment with only my phone and pydroid, I wanted to see if there was anything I could learn and mess around with while I’m here
Entirely depends on the project you want to build
That’s assuming I want to build a project, right now I’m messing around with numpy building arrays in different dimensions and multiplying them.
I know, but this is the weird way I learn things
Sounds like your project is building arrays in different dimensions and multiplying them.
Maybe give polars and pandas a try.
Definitely check out SciPy
I learned a lot about pandas (a library built mostly on top of numpy) by going to stackoverflow and trying to answer questions with the tag. Hopefully the questions have a minimal reproducible example and are isolated to one specific question
Pandas. Python’s only killer library imo
I personally also put Pydantic on the S tier.
Also, I use (geo)pandas on a regular basis and when it comes to geometric operations Shapely is an amazing library.
That’s like saying “what’s the best ingredients to learn cooking with?”, firstly it all depends on what your want to eat, secondly it doesn’t really matter what the ingredients are to learn cooking skills.
Well I mean obviously the answer is eggs
The ingredients I chose first are pandas.
Standard library of course. And collections module too, among the others that come by default. What you need is assignments to solve. Like project euler or hacker rank.
If you want to do web requests/ use API’s, use ‘requests’
graphs/reporting, I’ve used ‘bokeh’ before, it was nice.
I’ve never used PyDroid, so I’m not sure how you’d install things, but these are both available via pypi, python’s package repository.
Pips pretty easy in pydroid, thanks! I’ll have a look at requests, since I’ve been wanting to mess with apis
I heard there are quantum computing libraries in Python if that interests you!
If I were you I’d browse PyPi for any packages that look cool.
Make a plan of what you want to build. Start with the standard library. Google things you don’t know how to do, those libraries will show themselves to you.
Thanks but Im just going to go ahead and do my own thing. Everyone’s very insistent about doing things a certain way in this thread and honestly its unsolicited advice. Not everything is an XY problem :). I’m just going to install my different, unconnected libraries and tinker in peace
