I checked these out but couldn't find the answer to the questions I am asking. It tells you how to maximize efficiency while learning, but doesn't tell you how to identify what you should be learning in the first place and what the sequence of your focus should be when you start.

- eacapeisfutuile 2y agoWhat do you specifically want to learn? What you need to learn will generally make itself known, if you have some general goal? Just starting at all is the best way to start.
- dartharva 2y agoSay I want to learn web scraping. Now if I try to start, I see there are several layers of fundamentals and several potential paths, all of which seem equally important. Where do I start? What platform should I use? Should I start from the DOM and HTML parsing and go ahead from there, or should I start from learning Python libraries built for it as so many books and tutorials advise? Going one layer deeper, do I need to learn data structures before anything else? JavaScript and APIs? The fundamentals of TCP networking? Regex? It's all too overwhelming at times.
- eacapeisfutuile 2y agoYeah, start from any point A. A suggestion is where you can progress in some way. Don’t make too many decisions. There’s so many viable ways to learn that, just start where it is natural for you. You don’t have to figure everything out or have answers to everything.
