So I’m an on/off noobie but have been focusing on actually sticking with programming what I’ve been working on is Python but this question is for programming in general. For me it’s hard but I want to see how I can get better
Like are these good ways to get good:
Follow tutorials, then work on ways of adding your own twists or changes? Or trying to code it in something else?
Work on assignments from a resource you’re using like in my case Python Crash Course and attempt to redo the assignments without looking back?
Experiment with multiple libraries and library methods or built in methods?
Please share any other ways especially ones that helped you
Also when would be good to start a new language after learning one
Repetition doesn’t improve programming in many situations. Even when you get stuck. I could write a bunch of nested if statements every single day, and If they work, I wouldn’t get stuck and ever learn that there can be better ways to do it in many cases.
Especially for people like me, who self-learned and didn’t take any courses, I simply don’t know what I don’t know.
Everything from O notation to Object oriented programming is abstract in a way that you can’t accidentally learn it. I had to find these concepts and learn them, and not because I got stuck.
