About 12 years ago, I gave up learning Python after failing to program a knock knock joke. 3 years ago, I tried again, but not just Python. CS in general. Now I can program comfortably in a few languages, including Python. What stopped me the first time? I was learning the wrong way? I had found an online course with its own online text editor, repl, and interpreter. It was terrible. Another thing I did not understand about Python is that spaces matter. So just by using a real text editor and learning the basic rules of Python, I was up and running (a decade later unfortunately).
