One more advice - try executing the swaps in javascript/nodejs (https://github.com/ethers-io/ethers.js/) or python (https://github.com/eth-brownie/brownie) first, can be easier to learn. Then move it into a smart contract.

Learning Vyper over Solidity
1 project | /r/ethdev | 8 Aug 2021

For someone coming from Python, Vyper would be easier to learn. There is some learning material to help you start, but for more advanced concepts it might be harder to find. And some of Ethereum tools (for security, for monitoring) are built for Solidity, but in the last couple of months some of them started to include more Vyper support. And to test your contracts, and a basis dev environnement for Vyper, Brownie (https://github.com/eth-brownie/brownie) might be the best choice, since it's Python based
I want to start developing with the Ethereum technology, I'm hoping people could help me out and point me in the right direction
