PYTHON ROADMAP :-
Phase 1: Foundations
Install Python and IDE (VS Code recommended)
● Basic Syntax
● Variables, data types (int, float, str, list, tuple, dict, set)
● Operators (arithmetic, comparison, logical, assignment)
● Input/output operations
● Control Structures
● If-else statements
● For and while loops
● Break, continue, pass statements
● Functions
● Defining and calling functions
● Arguments, return values
● Lambda (anonymous) functions
● Basic Error Handling
● Try-except blocks
● Raising exception
Phase 2: Core Python Concept
● Data Structures
● Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries (operations, comprehensions)
● String Manipulation
● String methods, f-strings, regular expressions
● File Handling
● Reading/writing text and CSV files
● Working with JSON
● Modules and Packages
● Importing and using libraries
● Creating custom modules/packages
Phase 3: Object-Oriented and Advanced Programming
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
● Classes and objects, constructors (_init_)
● Instance and class variables
● Methods (instance, class, static), self keyword
● Inheritance, encapsulation, polymorphism, abstraction
● Advanced Error Handling
● Custom exceptions
● Context managers (with statement)
● Iterators and Generators
● Implementing and using iterators/generators
● Yield keyword
● Decorators
● Function and class decorators
Phase 4: Essential Libraries and Packages
● pip/env Management
● Installing packages with pip
● Virtual environments (venv, virtualenv)
● Key Standard Libraries
● os, sys, math, datetime, random, collections
● Third-Party Libraries (for practical applications)
● NumPy (numerical computing)
● Pandas (data manipulation)
● Matplotlib / Seaborn (visualization)
● Requests (HTTP requests)
● BeautifulSoup/Scrapy (web scraping)
● OpenPyXL (Excel file management)
● Tkinter/Streamlit (basic GUI/apps)
● Flask/Django (web development)
● pytest/unittest (testing frameworks)
Phase 5: Applied and Advanced Topics
Data Analysis
● Manipulating/visualizing data with Pandas, Matplotlib/Seaborn
● APIs and Automation
● Consuming APIs (REST), automating tasks
● Concurrency
● Multithreading, multiprocessing, async programming (asyncio)
● Testing and Debugging
● Unit and integration tests, debugging tools
● Version Control Basics
● Using Git for code/version tracking
●
Phase 6: Specialized Tracks
● Pick based on your interests:
● Web Development: Django, Flask, FastAPI, database integration (SQLAlchemy,
SQLite, PostgreSQL).
● Data Science & Machine Learning: Learn Scikit-learn, Jupyter Notebooks,
TensorFlow, PyTorch.
● Automation/Scripting: Automate office tasks, build scripts, work with APIs.
● DevOps/Deployment: Docker, CI/CD basics, cloud platforms.
● Final Phase: Real Projects & Continuous Learning
● Build Real Projects: Websites, applications, data analysis, automation scripts.
● Contribute to Open Source
● Join Coding Communities/Competitions: LeetCode, HackerRank, GitHub, Stack
Overflow.
● Keep Learning: Follow documentation, update skills as Python evolves.
