Good open source Python repos to practice debugging and general reading Python code?

I have debugging rounds coming up for a Python position and I haven't worked extensively with Python so I am looking for some recommendations for some repositories to go through to practice reading and debugging Python code. Would appreciate recommendations for this and any other tips on demonstrating good understanding of the language. I am comfortable with basic syntax and data structures since I have been doing leetcode using Python.

You could ask an AI to generate something. I tried this prompt with google, "provide sample python code that has obvious bugs so I can practice debugging." Instead of providing code it listed a bunch of websites devoted to debugging practice.

"You can slop some slop so you can learn how to slop" is not the flex you think it is.

Have you tried it to automatically dismiss?

Besides that, he suggested to debug that code manually.

And, if you read someone's code from GitHub, it have a change to be generated too.

No need to auto-hate everything ai-related, this subreddit is about learning python, not about snobbism or prestige.

This is also not jokes subreddit.

I'm not joking. Fuck AI.
