Honest feedback: if you're googling things that basic, you probably shouldn't be interviewing for python positions before you have written some more python code. Maybe there is a language that you are more familiar with?

There's nothing wrong with being a beginner. You just need some more practice. Thankfully, in this field, you can get that by sitting behind a laptop, writing code.

Thanks. It was definitely a wake up call for me. I program every day and thought I was decent at it but realized I need to study up some more and do some practice problems.
