Hot take: figuring out my first for loop took me 4 hours and I almost gave up
Back in 2019 I was trying to make a little number guessing game in Python and my loop kept running once and stopping because I put the input line outside the block with no indent. I sat at the kitchen table in Toledo for 4 hours, rewrote the whole file twice, and finally saw the missing spaces when I compared it line by line to a tutorial. Did your first loop bug take you way longer than the concept itself?
