Anybody else who is a python beginner think the challenges are ridiculously hard?

have been trying the python challenges after completing the course, about 95% of the challenge questions are math based with an impossible time limit if you're not well adapted to mathematics,is there a way to limit the difficulty of challenges to my level of understanding?

If you don't answer all answers correctly, remember to look at the correct answers after the challenge ends. You then have the time to understand what was your mistake. This really helps when you answered incorrectly, or simply didn't know the answer. The third case is when you know how to answer, but it takes you too long to calculate it. Many times this is because the question contains a loop and you feel you need to go over all loop iterations to calculate the answer. On many questions a deeper look reveals (for example) that a condition inside the loop blocks the execution on all the loop iterations except 1 or 2 and it is easy to calculate the answer once you notice that. This only comes from practice. The above applies to all challenges, not only python. The loop thing applies esp. To Java and C++ challanges.

I agree, python challenges are too hard for beginners.

Agreed. I stopped doing them just for this reason and now I only use this App to help people in q&a :) .

In my opinion, heavy math calculations are included in challenges even though they are not really used in our life. other than that, time is short to solve the calculations.

will do and I think I will just take a break from Python challenges until I am a bit more experienced.
