I learned a little bit of python back in college with the hope that it would give me a competitive edge in the field I hoped to enter. Lo and behold, I got a job in a different industry entirely and any knowledge of coding I once had became irrelevant.

Would it be worth it to pick up my python textbook again and self-teach in my free time if I don’t want to make a career of coding? What exactly can python be used to create?

    People certainly code as a hobby or have personal projects. But I wouldn’t say reading a textbook is fun for me, if I want to make a personal app then I’ll just learn what I need as I go.
