I found C# to pretty much be python just with strict types and semicolons. Jumped right into it really on my first job and it worked out pretty fine, granted I got to orient myself in the existing project where I started.
You are perhaps already familiar, but some things stand out like public/private annotations and other class related things like interfaces which work to create a more organized and controlled use compared to pythons "we are all consenting adults" approach were nothing ever really truly blocked from you. It depends a little on what you want to do/use it for, there's frameworks and different uses like WPF / .NET for the frontend.
While it may be too basic for you, ZetCode was useful for me back when learning PyQt in python, so you might find some use with the C# intro: https://zetcode.com/all/#csharp
You propably don't know how bad i'm in C#. Basic console apps are giving me trouble. I think it is very different from python. Like nothing is the same, at all
I sure don't sound helpful saying this, but it's mostly about finding the equivalent to the python action/types, and typing them out when making functions and variables. Though 99% of the time, you are completely fine defining variables as
var
to avoid excessive typing.I assume you dealt a bit with classes in python, if not then you're doing double time with both changing language and learning object oriented classes at the same time.
If there is any specific I can try to give some clarity since I also came from Python to C#.
We only created simple functions and reading from file in python, with def
Then you have a bit more to do yeah, you should look into object oriented programming and classes. Classes are pretty much everywhere in C#. At the beginner level they aren't as bad as they seem but you need to understand it's basics. The guide I linked in another comment also has short introduction to using a class for example.
