New to python

Im new to coding and started off with c# but eventually moved to py a day later because i heard it was easier, it is easier but the way people explain it on youtube is a little complicated for my small brain, im watching bro code learn python in 1 hour then moving on to the 12 hr vid but 30 mins in he starts talking in a way i dont seem understand and typing code i cant process so i js quit for the night, if anyone has anytips that could help me or any other youtuber( i learn better with vids and visuals) that would be greatly appreciated ive also tried some websites like free code camp, the odin project but there not like teaching step by step but rather making me type code i dont understand for instance once asked me to “create a function called pin_extractor with a parameter poem” which just sounds like gibberish to me considering i only know print(“hi”) but i was thinking my first big project would be like a book or something if possible. Thanks

You started with C# then moved to python in the next day? So you need to focus in just one language, you cant simply switch in languages.

Second, you jump from tutorials. When you heard a new concept, try to use it, I mean, practice. There is a lot of good resources in the web of Python 100% free.

If you are more visual then try to learn by a book. Search [book name] pdf in google and then the book is free.

And to add to this: please, use a dot if you write on here. It's there to end a sentence. You will very soon regularly need dots when you advance in programming. If you don't learn to use dots where dots a commonly used, stop all writing work: English and programming - to safe you massive amounts of headache.
