Request for enabling Python in Coding Interview Prep and Data Structures

Javascript might not be the most optimal choice for coding in interviews and Data Structures and Algorithms. I am requesting Python as a Language choice as it is easy to use and understand and commonly used on freeCodeCamp.

This is not an option at this time. Only HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are part of our interactive curriculum.

Actually, JavaScript is the most common language used on freeCodeCamp. As far as which is easy to understand, that is just a matter of opinion. The key is to understand and create the applicable algorithm. That is the hardest part. The choice of language has more to do with which one you have more experience with typically. If you have gone through the curriculum here, most of it is in JavaScript.

As far as I know, multi-language support for these challenges is not on the freeCodeCamp roadmap. However, if you know how to write your own tests (a very important skill), then you could certainly do the same challenges in Python in a different environment (your own computer, replit.com, etc). You might also prefer Project Euler for practicing Python.
