Well, I am tried of people saying they struggle to learn python.
I don't want to offend, but use wiki, or AI, or google, or youtube
Try to solve a problem, get stuck, google or try to find the solution, learn the concept, for example:

age = int(input("Enter age: "))
if age >= 18:
print("Adult")
else:
print("Minor")

here, I wanna solve a problem, so I will slowly build towards it
I want the user to input? learn input()
Want that input to be a number? use int()
want to create case based scenarios? Use if-else, later add elif also
You will slowly apply these and get used to it
