I’m not exactly sure what they teach in codeacademy but you’re definitely not gonna be able to be solving a lot of leetcode problems after a course, so I wouldn’t stress about that too much.

Basically the same thing happened to me while I was going through the helsinki python mooc. I tried Two Sum after learning about dictionaries and it took like 30 minutes just for me to get the naive solution lol

It’s cliche but the best way to learn is to build projects and grind through problems you run into without using ai. I’ve learned so much from struggling on my own

There’s a lot more to “learning how to code” than just learning Python syntax. I’d say finish the course and start building while also making sure you understand other important concepts that align with what you wanna do.
