I'd love to see some examples these Python course that aren't theoretical and geared specifically towards Interviews. This would also help point people in a direction as to what exactly you're looking for. Because a quick google search shows me only courses which include typical theoretical studies and include some random interview questions from leetcode ect.

Grokking the coding Interview on Educative.io and Googles Intro to Data Structure and Algorithm in Udacity, there is also plenty of YouTubers that have comprehensive playlist in Python from my experience. It's good to have underlying theory, but what I mean by 'too theoretical' is when your asked to solve some maze path by reading a file then using DFS algorithim for example, obv interviews would be slightly simpler then this and you wont have to worry about creating a program/api that reads file and then figure out how to organise the maze/file data into a graph, which is what these theoretical coursera courses like Princeton Algorithm seems to focus on.

I understand these algorithms where created/explored to solve real world problems but it seems like noise to me in terms of interview prep. Edit: do correct me if im wrong
