Python Basics: = vs == in Assigning and Comparing Values

One thing I notice very often while teaching Python is how a small symbol can change everything. More than one student has been confused between = and ==. = is used to assign a value == is used to compare values It looks minor, but this single difference can completely break the logic of a program and confuse beginners early on. Teaching Python keeps reminding me that strong foundations matter far more than complex syntax. What was the first Python concept that confused you? #Python #ComputerScience #LearningToCode #ProgrammingBasics #TechEducation

Indentation initially as I was used to put curly braces in C and Java 😁
