How do you remember syntax? Do programmers remember all syntax?

Question

Generally I know which keywords to use to solve problems but i'm often messing up the syntax, like colons, semi-colons, braces and parentheses.

Do we just rely on google until you sort of memorise it?

Answer 1

Jake Musumeci whether the syntax of human language, mathematics, or computers, the skill of using language syntax is all the same. With practice and usage, it becomes natural to write it correctly.

Answer 2

It's like learning vocabularies. Before you Google try by yourself a little bit longer.
But it takes repetitions.

Answer 3

Jake Musumeci ,

I know for me, learning multiple languages at the same time sometimes makes me start to think of a solution but then realize it won't work in the language I'm using, because I had subconsciously started thinking in another language.

Previously in life, I learned multiple languages in series.

I only started learning in parallel after coming to Sololearn. I saw all the courses and started Kotlin then expanded to Java, C, and Python, but that screwed me up.

I decided to concentrate only on Python. It's my new favorite language, and I love it, and my subconscious problem solving is back to normal.

Ctrl + Space show suggestions about what you type on vscode.
It's like guidance for memories.
