Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: HTML Runner at none against Python Coding's shown. HTML Runner also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%). Python Coding's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 5) and chart position (#11 vs #80). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
