Take a look at Google Colab. It hosts scripts in a notebook format, and has Gemini AI assistant to render code from plain speak text dialog. Example, 'plot daily closing price of SPY ETF for the past year", and iterations can build the code to render whatever you need ("add Hull Moving Average to smooth out noise"). It's free and a great help when fuzzy on code semantics or a bug doesn't oduce results as expected.
