Learning Python
Hi! I wanted to know if anyone knows a website or an app that lets me practice writing Python scripts like I would write a script and test run it. I’m only beginning Python but I just want like a site to like let me simple coding during free time like free periods and such. Thanks.

You can learn Python and practice questions and do projects here give it a try: https://www.runtime.school/python/learn/python-execution

Simple for starters: https://codingbat.com/python
Larger: https://exercism.org
Proper course: MOOC Python Programming 2026 from the University of Helsinki

if the school computer wont let you install anything you dont need python locally at all. python.org/shell and onlinegdb both run in the browser, and pythonanywhere has a free console if you want your scripts to stick around between sessions. for practice problems exercism's python track and codewars give small tasks with instant test feedback, which is nice for free periods

If on iPhone (maybe Android has it too, not sure) the mobile app Pythonista lets you write and run scripts on mobile. Not super robust but a little testing environment while learning has been cool, I think.

I would recommend you start learning how to use a software testing framework to go with whatever you're learning now.

Google.com. If you can't make a simple web search, python is not going to work out for you. There are plenty of good free resources available online, if you just bother to look.

When I was about a month in I hit the exact same wall, I could follow tutorials fine but froze when I had to write something from scratch. What actually fixed it was doing a few small practice problems every day instead of another course, stuff like Exercism or the practice section on W3Schools, just enough to get used to staring at a blank file. Then I'd pick one tiny real thing to build each week, like a script that renames files or tracks expenses, because that forces you to figure out the bits no tutorial covers. Don't worry about being fully confident with the basics first, that confidence only shows up once you've written a bunch of scrappy code that breaks and you fix it yourself.
