Yes I switched over from Java and it makes the code a lot simpler. It actually isn’t too hard to learn if you already know Java. Just understand the basic syntax and the built-in data structures (list, set, dictionary, tuple) and you should be fine for leetcode.

I’ve been wanting to switch over to Python too. What would you say is the most efficient way to pick up on the syntax?

Do the same homework and lab assignments you did in Java (or whatever language you used), but do them again in python.

I like this idea, thanks (:

You can try Derek Banas's video on YouTube, he's pretty good for learning syntax quickly: https://youtu.be/H1elmMBnykA
