Data structures and algorithms or web framework?

Question

So, this question has been posted before but it seem it was seen and successful ignored so I had to repost it.

Having finished the python tutorial, should I learn data structures and algorithms first or should I pick up a web framework and learn things on the way??
I want to do web development (back end).

Answer 1

I would suggest going for data structures and algorithms first as to write effective backend code, you should have a good understanding of DS and algorithms.

Answer 2

I think It all depends on what you want to do. If you want to go into data science, or ML, you can start with data structures. Or web development.

Answer 3

Web development (back end)

Answer 4

Ok. There are many apps on play store that teaches web scraping and dev with python. And, I think there should also be free courses on udemy too

Answer 5

Since you want to do web development go for django or flask both are awesome frameworks good luck!

Answer 6

Hi Tomiwa Joseph I'm no Python expert but after learning the language for a week I could see that the implementations are pretty easy when compared to other languages.

Now coming to your questions, I would suggest you to get started with a framework because these skills help you become a complete developer. But do not ignore data structures, you can solve one question in a day or two but focus on the back-end more.
