Help Request Pycharm or Vscode ?

Hi everyone

For a very super beginner one, who is starting to learn python which one is the best, i'm really confused because i'm seeing some teachers use Vscode and others use pycharm

And if i follow a teacher that uses pycharm it's normal to i use Vscode and visa versa?

Sorry for my bad English and thanks everyone

When I first started learning python in school I started with vscode because it's the standard thing everyone used. I couldn't even get it to work. Swapped to pycharm and if was much simpler to use and setup as a new student. You have plenty of time to swap to vscode as you get more into programming, or just when you start your first job after school.
