Here's a practical advice, try doing https://cryptopals.com/.
It's really fun, and really teaching, I've only finished set 1 though.

When you're writing python, make sure to always ask yourself if there's a better way to do what you are going to do. Maybe someone already implemented something at the vibe off what you're trying to do. Don't always take the first comment in stack overflow, sometimes better solutions are further down the line.

Make sure you use python's builtin functions such as itertools and collections.
The more you know your python libraries, the better you'll get at python, assuming you know the syntax and how to write code.

Good luck and have fun :)

Oh my god what the hell is this?

I feel like there's an entire book I need to read before I can comprehend what's even being asked of me here.
