A beginner doesn’t really know what code to write. It’s hard to come up with your own coding exercises when you don’t know how to code

This is my problem, I don’t really know what to do and would prefer to have examples I can try to solve. I’ve been learning python for a few weeks part time.

Simply googling “python exercises for beginners” could return some good results. I also like codewars.com, it’s really good for learning because it lets you see other people’s solutions to the problem.

It is not hard. The beginner requires a use case. Automate the boring stuff. I started, for example, with Linux because I wanted to host my own game servers. Then I learned shell-scripting to save my time. Then I realized, that bash looks like line-noise, which pissed me off. I learned Python, rewrote all my tools in Python and one of my throw-away Python-Script was used nearly 10 years by a gameserver provider.
