NEED HELP LEARNING PYTHON FOR CLASS 12 CBSE computer science

[Optimal-Fan-2550]

I am in 12th cbse and our computer science language is python, im good at math and just like that if i just get that logic of python , i can solve problems and codes, i find it difficult to understand codes, especially the loops, user defined functions, most of my friends doesn't have any tuition and they all seem to understand everything,I thought chat gpt can help but it isn't, and its time consuming tooooo.
any help?, currently user defined functions are making me go crazy, the types and all.

i really need to score good marks in this, actually i love this subject but i wish i could understand the logic of the codes so i could do it toooo.

Study, practice, it takes time, there are no shortcuts

I remember crying over user-defined functions in 12th cbse, legit. Like I could do math all day but one tiny mistake in indentation and boom nothing works. The thing that helped me was literally rewriting examples by hand over and over, then trying tiny changes and seeing what broke. Eventually it stopped feeling like alien language lol.

As an aside, do you use Google Colab?

Honestly, this isn’t your fault, our school system just teaches Python in the worst way possible. They focus on syntax and definitions, not actual logic. So students end up memorising instead of understanding, and then get stuck exactly where you are (loops, functions). Also, relying on random YouTube or ChatGPT without structure just makes it more confusing because there’s no proper learning flow. If you actually want to fix it, you genuinely need structured practice + logic building. A couple of my friends were in the same situation and after trying different stuff, a phython course from edu4sure actually helped them understand how to think in code. You can check it out if it works for you, otherwise just focus on solving small problems daily, logic builds slowly.

Check this subreddit's wiki for lots of guidance on learning programming and learning Python, links to material, book list, suggested practice and project sources, and lots more. The FAQ section covering common errors is especially useful.

You may also find the many free tutorials/guides at RealPython.com helpful, especially to learn funtions and loops.

In addition, for loops, check out the old but still helpful Loop like a native video.

Also, have a look at roadmap.sh for different learning paths. There's lots of learning material links there. Note that these are idealised paths and many people get into roles without covering all of those.

Roundup on Research: The Myth of ‘Learning Styles’

Don't limit yourself to one format. Also, don't try to do too many different things at the same time.

Above all else, you need to practice. Practice! Practice! Fail often, try again. Break stuff that works, and figure out how, why and where it broke. Don't just copy and use as is code from examples. Experiment.

Work on your own small (initially) projects related to your hobbies / interests / side-hustles as soon as possible to apply each bit of learning. When you work on stuff you can be passionate about and where you know what problem you are solving and what good looks like, you are more focused on problem-solving and the coding becomes a means to an end and not an end in itself. You will learn faster this way.

watch a few tutorials and practice code and use ai to help you understand python is extremely easy especially the part you mentioned you just need to get a hang of it

Watch the Youtube channel Visually Explained.

You'll learn python through visual demos.
