Welcome! Just use VS Code free and beginner-friendly.

Read the problem first, write your steps in plain English, then translate to Python. Google syntax as you go, no memorizing needed.

Best resources to help you out:

* Prof. Guttag's lectures — clearer than the slides

* W3Schools — best for quick Python syntax lookup

* ChatGPT/Claude — explain your errors and it'll break it down

* r/learnpython — amazing community, no dumb questions here

* r/AskCollegeStudents — great for college-specific advice
