That's fascinating! I regularly teach Python to STEM folks who haven't coded before. What did you find beginner *unfriendly*?

Learning Python has been really hard so far. Here's a thread of me breaking down my process of learning it from 100% scratch so far (day 2)

"They try to explain REPL to me, and data frames. Light breaks through the clouds." 😂💯 Sounds like a challenge with setting up an environment to learn in, but maybe learning nouns to help with search keywords. Anything specific to ~Python~, as compared to coding in general?

I don't know what coding in general is like, or what's specific to python- I just know I'm a beginner, I tried to learn python, and it was not friendly

Honestly, if your trouble stems from getting bored from doing easy stuff, then the low complexity of the language isn't helping you. But it will help those that just get through those fundamentals by doing those tutorials.
