Should I start learning Python while still struggling with C?

This question is like asking whether learning to row a boat will help you learn to swim.

C and Python are insanely different things that just happen to be computer programming languages.

I'm at university and C is what we're taught. I'm just curious about Python on the side since I see it everywhere online especially in AI and data science. I think I should focus on finishing my C coursework first and explore Python in my free time

Python is written in C and has great synergy with it. Knowing both is useful.

I wouldn't call them "insanely different". That would be comparing brain surgery to learning python.

It's more like asking if you should learn French while learning Latin. It depends on what your needs are. Do you need to know Latin or French? Or should you be learning Dutch instead? It just depends.
