i just got the latest version of python today and im finding it very difficult to understand. im only 15 and would greatly appreciate it if someone would help me understand the basics?

What don't you understand? What are you trying to do?

anything, i understand how to print something but thats pretty much it. i dont understand what things do

what do you think i should try and do?
