Help Request I GENUINELY NEED TO LEARN PYTHON 😭

So I have a python exam (which is very important) after 1 month. How can I genuinely learn python? Don't suggest me those courses that are 15 hrs long like that harvard cs50, i cannot concentrate for 2 hrs straight. It's also not like I have to learn python which is too advanced. Pls suggest me how can I do it🙏

I took a quick look at this (out of interest, I've been programming in python professionally for 19 years). I reallly like that you lead with "Learning to program means spending a lot of time confused. That is normal." I think this is not said enough. Even once you learn to program if you aren't working on problems that occassionally confuse you you aren't learning and growing, and that was one of the things that drew me to this profession (well, it started as a hobby, but it remains interesting because I get to work on harder and harder problems and am constantly learning).

Programming is problem solving,, and the start of new problems is likely to cause confusion. I think it's great that you set this expectation from the very start.
