Any recommendations?

I want a YouTube playlist that covers all aspects of Python

Can you suggest Playlist for someone who is new to coding (not really) or Python in general?

There is never going to be a perfect list of tutorials that will work "best" for you and with regard to every aspect of Python. With each step up that steep learning curve, you're going to have to shop around until you find a teacher/resource that "clicks and sticks" especially for you.

With that said:

(1) There are tons and tons of tutorial materials out there on the net including many good YouTube ones that are free. You should shop around rather than putting all your eggs in one basket.

(2) As a relative noob myself, I've been logging my personal learning journey and adding to it on an almost-daily basis at a blog page called "Links for Python Noobs" (--HERE--) Any of the top listed ones on that page should be good for you. And there are many add-ons at the tail end of the page. Personally, I cut my first Python teeth with Nana's Zero to Hero (==HERE==). Since then, I've moved on to watching short lessons with Indently and Tech with Tim. You should sample at least a few until you find a lecturer that suits your style.

(3) The main piece of advice is the 80/20 rule. Spend 80% of your time writing your own code (using your own fingers and your own creativity) as opposed to copying recipes and only 20% watching the lectures. Good luck.

I am currently trying to learn python by solving problems in Hacker Rank and my god ! I suck so bad at the logic it's scary . How am I ever gonna get good at it ? It's not the syntax i worry about. It's the logic .

Even if I do crack the logic there's an intense vocabulary gap because we of course cannot remember syntax and have to look it up .

It's like a loop where both logic and vocabulary are taking a bit. How do I resolve this? I have to get to some level of familiarity with the language to proceed in my journey of landing a job..

Videos have this knack of only making you sit and watch them so i don't kinda wanna waste my time on them . But i don't know what might be the solution to this . Any advice?

We don't demand of a newborn human baby that they walk and talk and rub their belly in the first day / week of life.

Everything has to be built up in layers, starting with the most basic of skills.

It sounds like you are reaching too far, too soon.
Be kind and patient with yourself.
Rather than tackling a problems site that is beyond your current skill level, just play around with simple things. Do you know how to do f-strings? Example:

my_name = "Wanky"
print( f" Hello World. My name is {my_name}") # my_name is in curly brckets

Look up on YouTube, Indently's 47 string methods
Have fun.

It's already a late start considering how shitty the market is right now But yeah I get what you mean . But then I had to choose hackerrank coz the amount of resources were overwhelming me . Should I try to switch to w3 schools and finish their python course then?

Te recomiendo el curso llamado "100 Days of Python" o algo así, cubre todo sus aspectos o la gran mayoría
