Python Ai Study Plan

This 7-week study plan focuses on Python and AI, dedicating two hours each weekday to learning. It covers core Python concepts, data handling with NumPy and Pandas, classical machine learning, deep learning, NLP, and recommender systems through readings, coding exercises, and mini-projects. Each week builds on the previous one, culminating in practical applications and projects to reinforce learning.

## Week 1 – Core Python & CS Fundamentals

### Day 1 – Python Syntax & Core Concepts


Re-read the basics in *Automate the Boring Stuff* (<https://automatetheboringstuff.com>).
Work interactively in the Python REPL, experimenting with variables, loops and functions.
Finish by writing a tiny script that greets a user, reinforcing input/output and string handling.

### Day 2 – Built-in Data Structures & Big-O Thinking


Review lists, tuples, dicts and sets in the official tutorial (<https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/>).
Consult the Python Time-Complexity wiki (<https://wiki.python.org/moin/TimeComplexity>) to see which operations are O(1) or O(n
Time a membership test in a list versus a set to make complexity concrete.

### Day 3 – Writing *Pythonic* Code


Study comprehensions and lambdas with Real Python’s guide (<https://realpython.com/list-comprehension-python>).
Implement a simple generator that yields Fibonacci numbers to appreciate lazy evaluation.
Glance at PEP 8 (<https://peps.python.org/pep-0008>) and refactor yesterday’s script for style.

### Day 4 – Algorithms & Problem-Solving


Solve two easy problems on LeetCode or HackerRank to practise reasoning about data structures and complexity.
Implement a basic stack class from scratch and use it to check balanced parentheses.

### Day 5 – Mini-Project: Log-File Analyzer


Write a script that streams a log file line-by-line, counts each log level with `collections.Counter`, and prints the top five errors.
Optionally visualise counts with a quick `matplotlib` bar chart.

## Week 2 – Data Handling with NumPy & Pandas

### Day 1 – NumPy Basics


Follow the first chapter of *Python Data Science Handbook* (<https://jakevdp.github.io/PythonDataScienceHandbook/>).
Create arrays, slice them, and time a pure-Python loop versus a vectorised NumPy sum.

### Day 2 – Reshaping, Broadcasting & Basic Stats


Practise `reshape`, stacking, and broadcasting rules.
Compute rolling averages on a 1■000-point random series to simulate sensor smoothing.

### Day 3 – Pandas DataFrames


Work through **10 Minutes to pandas** (<https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/user_guide/10min.html>).
Load the Titanic CSV, inspect `df.info()`, filter rows, and add a derived column.

### Day 4 – Grouping, Joining & Time-Series


Group sales data by category and sum totals.
Join employee and salary tables on `employee_id`.
Generate a date index with `pd.date_range` and resample daily data to weekly means.

### Day 5 – EDA Project


Pick Titanic or MovieLens-small.
Clean, explore with `groupby` or `pivot_table`, and plot one key insight.
Write a short narrative summary of findings.
