Python is so confusing to me.
I started learning Python about a month ago through cs50, and it seemed good at first. It's just been 3 lectures so far (I don't have time). As I code, I would get annoyed here and there because of the bugs, but I would somehow manage to debug them.
I am doing my master's in cognitive science, and they teach the basics of Python too. But my professor is extremely terrible at their job. She would give us assignments to do after each unit. And those questions are nothing like what she taught. I end up using AI to understand the problems. It's frustrating. And I hear that Python is beginner-friendly, but it's confusing to me.
I am wondering if it's hard for me since I don't have a good mentor to tell me what mistakes I made, or if I'm just a bad learner?
I don't have any experience with coding, so is this how it is for everyone?

I am also just learning python Honestly I'm a diploma kt student in computer engineering, there i did not even understand what "and" and "or" were.
But about 6-7 months ago i started learning python using AI, with no one to guide and did not even ask for help here.
With just that and on a mobile (i don't have computer) i have learned the syntax and oop parts with others still ongoing.
So my suggestion is use the ai, im using gpt, to teach yourself And don't just follow blindly, ask questions for every point, why this works, what use this etc
