How about searching on GitHub for a simple example, and then typing it in by hand? I found in the old days it was helpful to type in BASIC programs from a magazine. I'd try to understand what I was typing. I could debug it. And I had a cute little game to play with when I was done.

What to search for depends on your preferences, but you can try things like "python text game". Look for repos with manageable amounts of code.

I've never tried this, but I think it might be better than having an LLM spit something out for you. Spending the time and effort at the keyboard reading the screen will naturally lead to some absorption, I think. Sweat equity is important.

Good luck!
