This is my first hour trying to learn how to program

Question

I was wondering if I can create my codes or I need to learn the codes that have been created...

Answer 1

"learning codes" isn't the goal. learning how codes function to gain the ability to write your own codes is the goal.

looking at already written codes to see how they work Is very helpful, but no point trying to remember codes. learn about variables and printing to console. how to take user input. put in the effort in each lesson and you will be writing your own codes in no time

Answer 2

Agree with @Joker, well said👍.
Learn the fundamentals, how programs are coded and what makes them tick. You'll get ahead most people who try to remember code. Code is not meant to be remembered and pasted from memory, it's supposed to be created.
A great advice I heard that I'll talk about here -
Whatever you learn, apply it as soon as you can. It stays with you and you understand it much faster. So if you learnt a new function, a new concept; doesn't matter what it is, just apply it as soon as you can. Make a small program just for that. I've made a lot of stupid programs myself. That doesn't matter, because they made me understand the logic behind a function much better. Hope you make use of this, and progress much faster ☺
