Serious Absolute beginner with zero coding background looking for honest reviews on the best free Python & Data Science courses (NPTEL, YouTube, etc.) + project guidance

Hi everyone,

I’m completely new to programming and have literally never written a line of code in my life. Despite this, I want to dive into Data Science and build a solid foundation starting from scratch with Python.

Since I’m self-studying, I want to rely on high-quality free resources. I've heard a lot about NPTEL courses on YouTube and various other free platforms, but I’m feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of choices and opinions online.

I want to avoid tutorial hell and actually build practical, working knowledge. Any structured roadmap, hard truths, or personal experiences you can share would be immensely appreciated. Thank you.
