Clamp a Number to a Range
Implement a clamp function that returns a value within a specified range.
Count down from n
Implement a function that returns a list from n down to 1.
Count Multiples in a Range
Given a start, end, and divisor, count how many integers in [start, end] are divisible by the divisor.
Range of values
Calculate the range (max minus min) of a list of numbers. Empty list returns 0.
Move Zeros to End
Rearrange a list by moving all zeros to the end while preserving the relative order of non-zero elements.
Rearrange Positives and Negatives
Write a function that rearranges a list in-place so all negative numbers come before non-negative numbers.
Wave sort array
Given a list of integers, reorder it into a wave pattern where elements alternate down-up, and return the new list.
Range-like generator
Implement a custom generator that yields numbers like Python's range but with flexible bounds.

Practice Python by solving problems
PythonSkillset challenges are hands-on coding exercises from beginner to advanced. Open a challenge, read the problem, write Python in the split-pane editor, and run tests with Pyodide — no install required.
How to use the arena
- Pick a category — basics, algorithms, strings, and more
- Open a challenge, read the statement, and edit the starter code
- Run tests, fix failures, then try a related quiz or tutorial lesson
Challenges vs tutorials and quizzes
Challenges test what you can build under constraints. For guided teaching, use our Python tutorials. For quick checks, try quizzes or copy snippets from code samples.
