Phase 1: Basics (2-3 Weeks)

Daily Commitment: ~1 hour (post 6 PM or early mornings)

1. Setup and Fundamentals:

- Install Python (latest version) and set up a code editor (e.g., VS Code).

- Learn basic syntax: variables, data types, operators, and input/output.

- Practice simple programs like calculators or basic string manipulations.

2. Control Flow:

- if, else, elif statements.

- Loops: for and while.

- Understand break, continue, and pass.

3. Functions:

- Define and call functions.

- Arguments and return values.

- Scope and lambda functions.

Phase 2: Intermediate Concepts (4-6 Weeks)

Daily Commitment: ~1.5 hours (post-class or weekends).

1. Data Structures:

- Lists, Tuples, Dictionaries, Sets.

- List comprehensions.

- Practice problems from platforms like HackerRank or LeetCode.

2. File Handling:

- Reading from and writing to files.

- Handling exceptions with try, except.

3. Modules and Libraries:

- Standard libraries like math, random, datetime.

- Install third-party libraries using pip.

4. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP):

- Classes and objects.

- Inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation.

- Practice building small projects (e.g., a class-based employee system).

---

Phase 3: Advanced Topics (8-10 Weeks)

Daily Commitment: ~2 hours (adjust over weekends).

1. Advanced Data Handling:


- numpy for numerical operations.

- pandas for data manipulation.

- Visualizing data with matplotlib or seaborn.

2. Web Development with Python:

- Learn Flask or Django for web app development.

- Build a small project (e.g., a simple blog or to-do app).

3. APIs and Web Scraping:

- Understand REST APIs using requests.

- Web scraping with BeautifulSoup or selenium.

4. Testing and Debugging:

- Write test cases using unittest or pytest.

- Debugging tools and techniques.

5. Concurrency and Multithreading:

- Learn about threads and async programming.

- Use asyncio for handling asynchronous tasks.

Phase 4: Specialized Areas (Ongoing)

Focus on weekends or semester breaks.

1. Competitive Coding:

- Solve algorithm problems on platforms like LeetCode, Codeforces.


2. AI/ML with Python:

- Libraries: scikit-learn, TensorFlow, or PyTorch.

- Build beginner projects like predicting house prices or sentiment analysis.

3. DevOps and Automation:

- Automate tasks with selenium or pyautogui.

- Learn basic scripting for server management.

4. Big Data and Cloud:

- Explore tools like PySpark.

- Work with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure).

---

Tips for Success:

1. Consistency is Key: Allocate specific hours daily to Python.

2. Hands-On Practice: Work on projects to reinforce learning.

3. Use Resources: Explore free resources like W3Schools, Python.org, and YouTube tutorials.

4. Break Time: Utilize weekends for longer study sessions or revising tough concepts.
