12. Personal Project 1
You can't truly become a developer if you can't build your own stuff. Theory and foundations are important, but you also need to be able to fly solo. The purpose of this project is two-fold: a chance to put your skills into practice and to add another project to your portfolio. Well-built personal projects will help you land interviews and jobs, so make sure to put in the effort!

One of the most interesting and fun Python courses I've come across thus far. Especially interesting to introduce bitwise so early.

Good course, especially for people who have not used python in a while. A good recap of the logic and syntax differences and information about the nuances between python versions is helpful.

Learn Python for Beginners
Yeah even though this course got a lot of questions, I clearly think I learned a lot of concepts. Actually in my 12th grade I had a computer science course so I do learn Python. It was much more application. I just learned to learn the syntax over there and just read and write and just study for my book purpose and such but here I really learned how to use logic in order to solve a problem or code. This course was really useful for me to develop my coding language and logical thinking in the cod
