  • Programming is hard and requires you to think in a different way than how we think most of the time.

    This is the hardest part, learning to think in algorithm. You can learn that with most languages, once you know it it’s much easier to learn another programming language.

    Start with some simple tutorials, only use ChatGPT to help you understand some concepts or pieces of code, not to write the code. You can’t really learn shit if you’re not forcing your brain to think that way.

    It takes time, like weeks to start to become kinda comfortable with basic programming. Start with conditional structures (if, else), loops (while, for) variables and functions. That should already allow you to create some fairly complex programs.

    If I may, I would heavily suggest you to try to learn C, as it’s a much lower level programming language that has almost no hidden logic, where python comes with a whole lot of integrated features that make it hard to really learn and understand what’s really happening.

    Good luck! 👍
