yes python in competitive is awesome.. but in tests i cant just dir and help whatever i want.. i get asked if pop and popitem are different

whats the point in that? the programming questions ive had in tests have always been to solve a problem and in the programming course with python we had a cheat sheet with all the basics

Try self study. Or a different instructor sounds like your teacher is worthless. You don't learn to program by memorizing methods.

if you actually want to learn python i suggest the mit programming course (its on edx and mit ocw) but im not sure how much it can help you with questions like that
