How hard, difficult or frustrating was for you to finally feel comfortable programming anything you want in your area?

Question

I'm learning python but I would like to reach an expertise level good enough to feel pretty confident on my skills, not the best maybe but good enough to know i can program whatever I want. And sometimes, most times, it is pretty frustrating. Looking for a bit of motivation to keep going. Greetings and thanks in advance, also if you could tell any experience you had while learning it'd be great.

Answer 1

Hugo Bustamante Hope this will give you some motivation and will help you pursue what you want in future.
I just graduated in July and as long as I was in college I knew nothing about programming at all. I always used to skip classes and score low in exams. You want to know how bad I was? "I couldn't write a program to copy one array to another", that bad I was.
But when I graduated I realized that every other company was looking for programmers and people with good logic building skills.
So I dived into C language, then went on to learn little bit of C++, Linux and operating systems as well. Believe me it's pretty hard in the beginning but you have to find motivation from within to move on.
Now it's been just 4 months from when I started and I'm proud to be where I am today.
I'm learning java now for my 1st job.
So just push yourself, you will make it.

Answer 2

Just go through this if you lack motivation

Answer 3

I am learning programming on my own. I felt like Avinesh that after a few months in you start to feel more confident.

Probably good to expect that there will *always* be stuff you're not confident about.

You just need to become confident in your googling skill and your ability to figure out stuff in the end.

Answer 4

Don't wait to feel comfortable before you post, comfortable means slow.
Post codes as you learn, this will keep you trying to improve from your last code - techniques, knowledge, tricks, showcase what you have.
Others may learn from you, and you will learn from others.
I am still very much a learner
