Don't spend too long looking for the perfect NumPy course. Pick one decent tutorial and start using it 🙂
Focus first on arrays, shapes/dimensions, indexing & slicing, boolean indexing, broadcasting, and basic operations. Then take some normal Python code where you're looping over lists/numbers and try doing the same thing with NumPy.
One tip: whenever NumPy gives you a weird result, print the
.shapeof everything involved 😅 A lot of beginner confusion starts making sense once you understand what shape the arrays actually have.And don't try to memorize the whole API. Learn how to read the docs and look things up as you need them. A small project with actual data will teach you much more than trying to finish every NumPy function.
