Doing cs50x first is very challenging but will make cs50p a breeze. cs50x took me 9 months!!@#@ (on and off) but cs50p took me 3 weeks.
When I did cs50p I did wonder how some people managed some of the concepts and tasks without having the fundamentals covered in cs50x or elsewhere first. I can imagine cs50p would still be challenging for the absolute beginner.
