Are you planning to learn Python for machine learning this year?
— Pratham Prasoon (@PrasoonPratham) February 13, 2021
Here's everything you need to get started.
\U0001f9f5\U0001f447
- Trigonometry & Algebra
These are the main pre-requisites for other topics on this list.
(There are other pre-requites but these are the most common)
To manipulate and represent data.
- Calculus
To train and optimize your machine learning model, this is very important.

> This is 15 years old but still 100% relevant today!
Despite the fact these lectures are made for freshman college students at MIT, I found it very easy to follow👌

This is a step-by-step guide on getting started with Python as a total beginner.
(includes free resources and everything else you need to get started)
🧵👇
Before we begin, I want to congratulate you on your decision to learn how to code using Python.
I still remember how I wrote my first piece of code 6 years and all the amazing and cool things I've been able to do with it ever since.
(2 / 24)
Make sure to keep in mind that it is probably best for you to keep your expectations in check.
Don't expect to make AAA games or state of the art machine learning models in a week.
(3 / 24)
Programming is not something that you can learn in a single week, it takes consistent effort and dedication over time to get good at it.
With all that being said, let's dive straight in.
(4 / 24)
In order to write Python code, you'll need to install Python on your system.
Linux and macOS users can skip this step because they come pre-installed with Python.

1⃣ Notebooks are a fantastic way to code, experiment, and communicate your results.
Take a look at @CoreyMSchafer's fantastic 30-minute tutorial on Jupyter Notebooks.

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”
Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?
A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:
2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to
- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal
3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:
Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.
Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.
4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?
To get clarity.
You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.
It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.
5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”
Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
