2-Writing psuedo code
3- Implementing algo to code
4-Compilation Errors
5-Runtime Errors
6-Logical Error

Answer 1

0 - Starting it

Actually it's very hard to get a good idea. Whatever comes to my mind is a million-dollar software idea!

Answer 2

understanding third party's API is the most difficult one.

Answer 3

Remembering all the functions and syntax for each language. Guess it comes easier with practice.

Answer 4

slow internet my music stops i cant save my code in playground

Answer 5

data management, the worst thing ever

Answer 6

True,when dealing with large amount of data or references it gets too confusing and difficult.

Answer 7

1 selecting and making best algorithm and managing resources i.e space & CPU resources
also finding runtime errors and removing them because in that case you have to run the program again and again, passing different inputs to get all runtime errors.

Answer 8

being a newbie this coding is trick but you never know how good you are until you try it

Answer 9

I'd say "implementing algorithms".
the coding part isn't all that bad, but understanding how one would go about making functional code out of an, even somewhat, complex algorithm, is just hard

Jon Acuff said "Never compare your beginning to someone else's middle. Comparison is poison." @12:00 PM - 5 March 2013

Answer 12

Coding itself is most difficult 😂

Answer 13

Starting it. Cannot decide where to start the project. Like from where we start the paintings.

Answer 14

When your code doesn't work and you don't know WHY. Tangled, unorganized code makes it even worse.

Answer 15

Trying to debug exceptions that you didn't even know your code could throw. (I'm looking at you, WPF.)

Answer 16

To understand the code of others is most difficult because many uses different approach to answer a single problem. it also helps a coder to get idea of how to solve a problem with different approaches

Answer 17

Personally, I have a difficult time writing the pseudo-code. All the rest is relatively easy.

Answer 18

all of it, because i have no idea what you just wrote on that list. lol

Answer 19

Compilation error sucks mann😥

Answer 20

Invent names for variables.
