Hi there! I’m Pankaj, the creator behind AskPython, and I’m excited you’ve found your way here.
The Journey
With over 14 years immersed in the IT industry, I’ve had the privilege of working as a software developer and engineer across various platforms and technologies—including a rewarding stint at Apple. Throughout this journey, one language has consistently captured my attention and passion: Python.
What started as curiosity about this elegant language has evolved into a deep obsession with Python’s ecosystem, particularly in Data Analytics, Machine Learning, and the rapidly expanding universe of Python libraries that make complex problems surprisingly approachable.
“I built AskPython to be a comprehensive Python resource I wished I had—straightforward, practical, and ready when you need it.”
Pankaj Kumar
Founder and CEO, AskPython
Why Python?
Python’s philosophy resonates with how I approach software development.
It’s beautifully simple, giving you exactly what you need without unnecessary complexity. This simplicity doesn’t mean limitation; instead, it creates clarity and speed in both learning and implementation.
The explosion of data-driven technologies has propelled Python to new heights, and I’ve been fortunate to work with some incredible libraries that showcase the language’s versatility: TensorFlow for deep learning, NumPy for numerical computing, Pandas for data manipulation, Scikit-Learn for machine learning, and Keras for neural networks, among many others.
My Vision Behind AskPython
AskPython was born from a simple observation: too many Python resources feel incomplete or outdated.
I noticed developers struggling with fragmented information, outdated Python 2.x examples, and tutorials that never evolved with the language itself.
This platform represents my commitment to the developer community—a place where experience meets practicality. Every article I write draws from real-world challenges I’ve encountered and solved throughout my career. My goal isn’t just to provide answers, but to save you time and help you build better solutions faster.
What Sets AskPython Apart
- Quality First: Each article is crafted with the same attention to detail I’d expect in production code.
- Always Current: Unlike many resources that become digital artifacts, I actively maintain and update content to reflect Python’s latest developments and best practices.
- Real-World Focus: The examples and solutions you’ll find here come from actual development scenarios, not just theoretical exercises.
Let’s Connect
I believe the best learning happens through community.
I encourage you to share your thoughts, questions, and experiences through comments on any article. Your feedback doesn’t just help improve the content but also helps shape the direction of this platform.
For direct inquiries, collaborations, or just to say hello, feel free to reach out via email.
I read every message and do my best to respond personally.
Thank you for being part of the AskPython community. Here’s to writing cleaner code, solving complex problems, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with Python.
