Because I’ve never seen a python class before that was ‘no experience required’ where they go “Well, normally we’d teach you about variables, and loops, functions and operator precedence…but you know what? Screw all that. Head first! YOLO! Write me some code.”

If that is how that class is, I’d drop it and go hit youtube or something. How to Learn Python stuff is pretty available if you want to learn (and python is pretty useful).
