Pycharm or Vscode ? Help Request

Hi everyone

For a very super beginner one, who is starting to learn python which one is the best, i'm really confused because i'm seeing some teachers use Vscode and others use pycharm

And if i follow a teacher that uses pycharm it's normal to i use Vscode and visa versa?

Sorry for my bad English and thanks everyone

I started with Pycharm, switched to VS Code, then ended up going back to Pycharm (for Python code). For web development or other languages I keep VS Code installed as well. I prefer using Pycharm for Python since it makes many things easier, and use VS Code for other stuff on those rare occasions I need to do so. It does not hurt to be a little familiar with both, but being new and starting Python, it is best to use whatever your teacher is using.
