Loading collection data...
Collections are a way for you to organize kata so that you can create your own training routines. Every collection you create is public and automatically sharable with other warriors. After you have added a few kata to a collection you and others can train on the kata contained within the collection.
Get started now by creating a new collection.
I started learning Python with YT tutorials and codewars, and this kind of problem would have stomped and disheartened me at the beginning.
To me 8 kyu is literally just citing a concept or function (e.g., this one: https://www.codewars.com/kata/555a67db74814aa4ee0001b5/python),
while 7 kyu is applying a concept or function, and 6 kyu combining more than one concept or function, and so on.
Especially 8 kyu shouldn't be too hard because if the entry level is steep a lot of the true beginners will turn away.
Well, my opinion, at least :D
No one coerces you to do anything. If you don't like something, just skip it. There are thousands of katas without strings.
