So I’m an on/off noobie but have been focusing on actually sticking with programming what I’ve been working on is Python but this question is for programming in general. For me it’s hard but I want to see how I can get better

Like are these good ways to get good:

Follow tutorials, then work on ways of adding your own twists or changes? Or trying to code it in something else?

Work on assignments from a resource you’re using like in my case Python Crash Course and attempt to redo the assignments without looking back?

Experiment with multiple libraries and library methods or built in methods?

Please share any other ways especially ones that helped you

Also when would be good to start a new language after learning one

    1st stage: have a basic grasp of the language you use. Do those tiny stupid and boring exercises from the book you read.

    2nd stage: write something you need. Not the thing you think you can do but the thing you need. No matter how complicated it might seem from the start. Write it until you done or until you can prove that your language is completely unsuitable for what you need.

    3rd stage: at this point you should have enough understanding of what you can and what you cannot do.
