🐍 Python Learning Path & Web Development Prep 🚀

Overview

Welcome to my personal coding repository! This space is dedicated to tracking my progress and storing projects as I advance my knowledge in Python, with the ultimate goal of transitioning into web development (specifically using frameworks like Django or Flask).

This repository serves as a Portfolio of Progress—a chronological record of concepts learned and applications built.

📁 Repository Structure

The projects are organized into folders based on complexity and focus:

Directory	Focus Area	Description
01-Beginner-Scripts	Core Fundamentals	Basic scripts, variable manipulation, control flow (loops, conditionals), and basic I/O.
02-Intermediate-Concepts	OOP & Structures	Projects focusing on Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), data structures (lists, dictionaries), exception handling, and external file operations.
03-Data-Analysis-Prep	Libraries & Data	Introduction to key libraries like Pandas or NumPy, basic data cleaning, and small analysis projects. (Lays groundwork for backend data handling).
99-Web-Prep	Future Focus	Placeholder for initial steps into web development (e.g., small Flask 'Hello World' apps, HTML/CSS practice).

💡 Goals

My current learning path and goals for this repository include:

1. Master Python Fundamentals: Achieve fluency in core programming concepts.
2. Learn Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA): Apply efficient coding practices in practical projects.
3. Explore Frameworks: Begin small projects using Flask or Django to understand routing, templates, and database interaction.
4. Build a Full-Stack Project: Eventually use this knowledge to create a functioning web application.
