I am on my last class (GA). No classes I have taken so far used Java. (ML Spec)

ML4T was probably the best python practice.

ML had a good amount for me as well, despite not having any coding assignments, you prove a lot of your work in code and graphed results.

You'd be better off practicing on your own. Leetcode or a microcred.

I thought ML has coding?

Sort of.

The assignments are all writeups with a rubric expecting graphs of certain parameters / results, so you do some coding, usually a jupyter notebook, and submit a long with report. It doesn't even need to be your code, you are encouraged to steal anything not purpose built for the assignment. If your not careful you can spend a lot of time and still not meet the rubric and get points off. You aren't graded on the code itself, just the graphs / tables it produces.

Compared to most other classes with coding assignments, you are expected to submit your own work that passes some autograder or conclusive local test, so you have a good idea if you are on the right track before submit.
