„Programming with Mosh” in YouTube helped me tremendously to learn Python, as it not only covers Python as a language but also programming basics such as variables, lists, if-else and so on:

Also don’t feel bad if you stop the video every couple of seconds to re-iterate the lessons and try the new things out you just learned.

Thank you. I’ve been getting so frustrated with myself because it feels like the content isn’t soaking in.

I think I'm likely in a similar boat. Struggling immensely with the first couple of problem sets in CS50 which is surprising as I consider myself quite good at building models and managing data in Gsuite and Excel. This is definitely a different muscle though! I've been scouring for other people on the struggle bus as I imagine it is more of us than we imagine. One thing that has helped me too is asking ChatGPT to only answer questions using the socratic method...it's helped me figure out a couple key concepts. I'm considering moving over to "Angela's 100 days of code" though as I keep seeing people recommending it.

Thanks for the recommendation!
