Best resources to learn it while working in another field?

    Definitely important, I use it frequently for finance risk consulting projects, useful if your dealing with big data sets bc excel wouldn’t cut it at that point. I learned it on the job, YouTube videos helped as well

  • Learn Analytic functions. That will be enough. FROM anywhere , all pretty ok.
