since you're just starting, write programs that accepts inputs from users and perform simple algebraic calculation
you can start with the popular simple interest
then try your hands on simultaneous equation with 3 variables if you're a mathematics person

these should do for now
come back for more when you're done
if you don't mind you can post the code you arrived at for evaluation

I know how you feel bro, you being a programmer need something to show you're progressing, well I would suggest the following stuffs to you since that's what I did back then and you're have gotten a 2 week reading of online tutorials.

1. A program to calculate and print the total number of vowel and consonant letters in a passage of text.
1.1 This can be advanced to reading text files and calculating the vowels and consonants.
Make use of list and file.
2. A program that operate similarly to the morse-code (google for more)
Make use of list and file.

If you're unable to do those? I advise to pick up a Python book and read, online tutorials won't do you much if you don't have much understanding before. And let me guess this is your first language, reading online tutorials won't help at this stage, pick up a book and learn the in and out, only if you want python programming as a side hobby you shouldn't bother much. Download Python Programming by Daniel Liang, it has lots of exercises.
Don't think of advance stuffs now until you are can be sure you can handle the basic things of the language.

Please I need a pro to check this code for m. Its a program should accept input for user and count the number of vowels and consonants.

The Code:

v_count = 0
c_count = 0
alphabets = []
vowels = ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u']
consonants []

for i in vowels:
....vowels.append(chr(ord(i)-32))
....#update the vowels list with caps
for i in range(65, 91):
....alphabet.append(chr(i))
....alphabet.append(chr(i+32))
....#update the alphabets list
for i in alphabets:
....if i not in vowels:
........consonants.append(i)
........#update the consonants list

text = input("Enter text:\t"wink

for letter in text:
....if letter in vowels:
........v_count += 1
....elif letter in consonants:
........c_count += 1
....else:
........continue

print("vowels: " + str(v_count))
print("consonants: " + str(c_count))
