I am in high school and I am a beginner in Python development. I took a course last semester at a local college. I know the basic syntax and I have written a few useful/interesting applications (reddit notifications with reddit api, brute force password generator with hashes). I have also started to make basic applications that incorporate Django.

To further my learning and improve my process, I want to study algorithms. What are some good books on algorithms that are suitable for beginners?

What else can I do to further my learning? I want to work on improving my code now that I understand the syntax.

I am looking for a lightweight, inexpensive ($50-$170) Windows laptop that I can use for programming and tinkering with microprocessors. I don't plan to install any games or intense applications. Any recommendations?

What are future career prospects in the software development industry that will be popular due to today's emerging technologies? What can I do to get prepared for these careers? How can I find a mentor to aid me on my journey? I have a love for programming but I don't want to work as a cubicle slave. I'd prefer a leadership position at an interesting startup... How do I get there?

I am currently in college studying software development. Please answer my question as if I have no previous knowledge of the startup environment.

Is it necessary to register for tax and legal reasons? Also, let's say a customer gets angry and isn't satisfied, how should you respond? And what if they decide to sue because you didn't deliver what they wanted? Is a terms of service related to this? How do I write a terms of service?

A solutions architect in IT is a consultant that has knowledge of a wide range of programs and concepts. Using this knowledge, they craft solutions based on the customer's problem in their domain.

How long did it take you? What age were you when you knew it was your passion? How did you know it was your passion?

I have a few projects in mind like motion graphics and starting drop shipping. I have ideas for both and I am able to start now. How do you decide on which project to start? Both will take a whie.
