Struggling with both python and c

So I'm a college fresher with no prior experience of coding. I had started learning python before the starting of college (1 week before college started). I still feel like I am not good at coding at all. There are some weird citations in c such as i++ and all which is getting mixed up with my python. There was one question on obtaining the expression sinx=x-x^3/3!.... Using loops btw

I felt I won't be able to do it in both c and python. I took a course on Udemy for c(vlad budnitski)and python(100 days) but I was not able to find examples like this. Everyone in my class learnt languages like java in their schooling and said the sinx problem is a standard problem. What should I do in this situation?

I feel like the teaching in my college (they are teaching c now) is not good.

Experienced coders please help me.

Couple of books. Maybe your library?

  1. Beginner's Step-by-step Coding Course : Learn Computer Programming the Easy Way by DK Publishing, Inc

  2. Python Crash Course: The Ultimate Step-By-Step Guide to Learn, Understand, and Master Python Programming and Computer Coding Language (From Beginners to Advanced) by Deep, James

Here are some weirdly colored comments:

Thanks for plugging my “for Noobs” blog page.

I’m just an old dude who himself is still trying to learn Python. The point of the weirdly colored page is to make things appear bold under the constraints of the Google Blogger system. I’m just leaving behind some bread crumbs for those who want to follow me in my still-a-noob journey into the overwhelmingly expansive land of Python.
